Probate documentation can be a goldmine of information on a decedent and his family. However, have you searched for your ancestor in a neighbor’s estate file? Examples from Florida and elsewhere in 18th and 19th centuries will demonstrate what information can be gleaned on the decedent and neighbors involved during the probate process. Get inspired to explore probate records with a new perspective.
