Marilyn, I don't know if they still are available from the Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives, but they used to provide microfilm copies of the county records for a small fee - $10.00 for 16mm and $15.00 for 35mm. These included microfilmed copies of will books [almost all of Russell County's were available on one 16mm reel], marriage records, deed books, etc. You might want to consider that if you are convenient to a library with a working microfilm reader.

Hello Listers: Over the years I have ordered and received copies of Wills and Indentures from the Jamestown Court House for a mere pittance and very courteous service for about $3.50 per item. Ha!! I suppose that is a bygone happening as that was back in the late 80's and early 90's. Anyhow, I would like to send for a will or two and wonder if anyone has any information regards if you can even get one by mail and who the current County Clerk is and/or how much.... I heard via the grapevine a while back that they wouldn't even entertain your request. True??
