Well, I might just as well get in on the act - the Historical Society has the original records that the LDS Church filmed. The Surrogate office has the film of the probate pkg as well as separate film of just the wills - not all of the probate files on film included the wills. I can't recall exactly how far these go - at least up to 1881 and a little later. After that one has to go to the Surrogate. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
