NEW AND EXCLUSIVE U.S. WILLS AND PROBATE RECORDS ON ANCESTRY.COM


http://www.ancestry.com/will-probate-records?o_iid=67145&o_lid=67145&o_sch=Web+Property

The following announcement has been made by Ancestry.com about a new record collection they have added to their site:



Probate records are some of the most valuable documents you’ll come across doing your family
history. These records, created a­fter an individual’s death, often exist in time periods when birth,
marriage, and death records are unavailable and contain personal details unlike any other record.
Even though you might not have known your ancestors, you can discover the people and possessions
they cared about and perhaps learn a little more about their character and personality.
Ancestry is home to the largest online collection of documented wills and probate records for the
United States. You’ll find records for all 50 states covering more than 300 years, from 1668 to 2005.
That’s more than 170 million documents available for browsing. The size of this unprecedented
collection means you’re likely to find at least one of your ancestors.

 The research guide for these records can be found HERE.

Here is a list of the records that have been added:
