PROBATE RECORDS
Wills before 1875 were proved
in Commissariot Courts.
The areas covered by Commissariot
Courts pre 1800 in Scotland relate to Church jurisdiction
and not county borders so more than one Court can
cover a County.
The Commissariot Court of Edinburgh had jurisdiction
for the whole of Scotland and abroad
and should also be checked.
These Testaments
are for personal property only.
The Library has a complete set of Indexes for
pre 1800 Commissariot Court Wills. |
The Commissariot of Dumfries covers the County of Dumfies.
