These are mostly papers submitted by administrators or executors of estates as required by law to document the settling of the estates of deceased citizens. The most commonly found documents are administrator's bonds, inventories and appraisements of estates and sale bills. Also included in some cases are guardian's bonds, letters of administration, orders of dismission of administrators, orders to sell lands, returns of widow's support, probated wills and receipts taken by an administrator or executor when he made payments in settling an estate. The records are arranged alphabetically by the surname of the deceased (except for one guardian's bond where the parent's name is not shown and which is filed by the name of the child). The list below gives the name of the deceased and the inclusive dates of the documents.
