I just discovered something you might know or you might not. I am trying to break down a MAJOR wall with my Haight family and found a way on familysearch.org that may help ME so it may help YOU too....I am finding more and more that familysearch often has answers not found elsewhere--the key is to finding them. THAT is the tricky part. To find NY State Wills go to this link on familysearch https://familysearch.org/search/image/index#uri=https://familysearch.org/recapi/sord/collection/1920234/waypoints You will come to a list of counties--- Choose your county and then you will come to an alphabetical list for various links for probate records or Wills and Administration index <https://familysearch.org/search/image/index#uri=https%3A%2F%2Ffamilysearch.org%2Frecapi%2Fsord%2Fwaypoint%2F9VSM-4WP%3A213301001%2C215509101%3Fcc%3D1920234&1&leaf=true> On the lists I looked at the files you are looking for seem to be at the end of the list (don't ask my WHY they put the index last LOL) Look for the alpha listing for the last name you are looking for. They are in alphabetical order. Each county is set up a bit differently but what you are looking for is the Volume# and Entry # number where the will is located. Once you find the vol # and page # you can easily find the will you are looking for. This takes a bit of "poking around" as each will varies in length, and the #'s the give you is NOT the page # but it is the file #. This is where the "researcher" in you comes out. Skip around a bit to locate the page where your file # is located. THERE you will find the entire will for the person you are looking for. Here is an example for one person I did as "visual" always helps ME to figure things out. The person I am doing is Aaron Haight in Westchester County. First I go here and choose the county https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1961-28663-34995-0?cc=1920234&wc=9V36-YWG:213305501,234535401#uri=https%3A%2F%2Ffamilysearch.org%2Frecapi%2Fsord%2Fcollection%2F1920234%2Fwaypoints Then I went here and chose Westchester - "Wills and letters index 1813-1983 Gurska, Agnes-Hanlon, James" - - THEN comes the searching for where the name HAIGHT starts, and I copied all the Haights to my WORD file so I could look them up one at a time.-- <https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1961-28663-34995-0?cc=1920234&wc=9V36-YWG:213305501,234535401#uri=https%3A%2F%2Ffamilysearch.org%2Frecapi%2Fsord%2Fwaypoint%2F9V36-YWG%3A213305501%2C234535401%3Fcc%3D1920234&1&leaf=true> - - Once I have them all organized so I can go through one by one-- I look at the Vol # and page # for the person I am looking for-- - - the way the files are set up are a bit different for each county though. Westchester happens to also include the probate court heating in upper R corner. - - Then you go back to the 1st search page and find the link for the right Vol # and year...and then "hunt" for the file #. Since wills are different lengths, you have to skip around until you get to the right area. For good old Aaron it is here... https://familysearch.org/search/image/index#uri=https%3A%2F%2Ffamilysearch.org%2Frecapi%2Fsord%2Fwaypoint%2F9VSR-VZ3%3A213305501%3Fcc%3D1920234 No need to pay someone for "pig in a poke" and ordering will info on people in a county when you really don't know who you are looking for. You CAN find this info yourself! It takes some time and patience, but you CAN find wills on the people you are looking for all by yourself! Why would you want to pay someone to get info that is free? It just takes a little time to find out about the person you are looking for... I hope this helps those who don't know where to turn to find WILL info-- After I got a pretty snotty response from someone selling this info, when I asked about how his pricing worked, I decided to find the info myself. No reason to pay $, no reason to put up with attitude +++ it just takes a little time to find the info yourself. Once you understand the "hoops" it is easy to find wills...probates, estate info...it is all there for the taking--FREE I hope this helps those of you who don't care to pay $ for free info... Have a great day, Joyce - - - I used my snipping tool on windows 7 to make a copy of every single file I found in the right area and time period for my Haights. (Mac has a similar tool) I will post instructions for this at end of email for you windows 7 users. If you are on windows 7 and don't know about the snipping tool, it is the greatest invention since ice cream:-) Once you have found the last names you are searching for (you may find many if you are searching for a needle in a haystack as I am) copy them over to a WORD file or something similar, as doing the "needle in a haystack" search requires that you stay organized. If you have 30 or so names to sort through to look at wills you will want to stay organized and mark off the files as you check them. NOW to find the wills. In the upper R side of the cards you will find for probate there is a probate court hearing number. THESE are pages and pages of court hearing info, so you may want to consider looking at them later, for any miniscule info you might pick up. What YOU want is the will # and that is located right underneath the person's name Go to the windows symbol in L lower corner of your screen and use the search function as if you were searching your computer for a document BUT type in SNIPPING TOOL . This will put it in your program menu so you can either copy or save as to your computer files ANY document you find ANYWHERE as long as it fits in the snipping screen. If it doesn't, make it smaller and drag out the corners to make it bigger. -- Researching Stephenson/Stevenson, Fleury, Heald, Lindelof, Young, Rubino, Cammarota, Mandracchia, Vaiarelli, Mulhern, Johnson, Haight, Erickson, Munson, Northrup, Sears, Camp, Gunn, Allen, Gorham, Plumb, Beard, Rogers, Eliot, Briscoe, Bradley, Mix, Wilmot, Pritchard, Mew, Stone, Sparke, Bayley, Bailey, Redfield, Redfin, Howland, Tilley, Sturgis, Hinckley, Kirk, Norton, Gerard, and many more...
