The FamilySearch site lists will/probate records for Ripley Co., IN,
but none of the film appears to be specifically an index. Does
anyone know if there is an index available for these records? Is
each roll of film indexed? Or is it necessary to get all the film
that comes close to a suspected death date and search page by page in
the hope of finding a desired record.
FamilySearch lists Will records for 1896-1922, Probate order books
1818-1918, and Complete probate books from 1834-1917, with no comment
about an index either as a separate film number or as a part of each
individual reel.
My interest is in probate records for Allen Burton and/or his wife,
Nancy Burton. I did not find them on the 1860 census so I assume
they died sometime between 1850 and 1860.
