Finding Aids:

An alphabetical nominal index giving the book and page reference numbers for Books A-H is located at the beginning of the first reel. Beside the general index, there is a nominal index at the beginning of each volume.

Notes:

The dates which are given in the typed information at the beginning of the reel are not accurate.

The microfilm quality of the general index is poor, but the probate documents are readable.
