PROBATE & WILLS
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 Edinburgh was the main court and covers all of Scotland and Overseas as well as the local area and should always be checked. |
