Carol,
This information is from an index and abstract titled:
Abstract of Probate Records
1817-1850 Part 1
1850-1865 Part 2
Clerk's Office
Daviess Co., In
Compiled by Stella Bogner
(Probably compiled after 1930 and before 1950. Mrs. Bogner was an active genealogist and
also active in the local DAR)
As she notes we had two court house fires before 1930, during the 1928 fire the court
house was destroyed. However, many of the records were rescued from this fire. There
were many records damaged and lost, but a great deal survives. So, the type of record(s)
for each entry is not always clear. The actual records can be requested from the Daviess
Co., Clerk's Office (812-254-8664). I do not know their procedure or charges.
