Index to Bedford County, Pennsylvania, Wills 1771 �1900Index to Bedford County, Pennsylvania, Wills 1771 �1900. Patricia Wainwright Collins. Softcover, 1983, 8.5" X 11", New, Self-Indexed, 29 pp.
The included alphabetized names are all those found in the Willbook Indices of Bedford County, Pennsylvania from the county�s inception in 1771 through and including 1900. Most wills listed herein can be found in Will Books 1 through 8; however, some early wills, mostly those in the late 1700�s, will be located in Will Books 21, 22, and 23. These were originally unrecorded, but a later mandate required that they be included in the regular books. According to the author, the Registar of Wills of Bedford County, will now allow access to records only on microfilm and microfiche. It is hoped that this new index will prove to be a great value to those persons undertaking Bedford County research. CP489 |
