Transylvania County Wills & Estate
Records
|
|
Transcribers:
- Linda O. Anders
- Philip Underwood-Sheppard
|
|
Transylvania County wills are located at the Clerk of Courts Office in
Brevard, North Carolina. "Will Book 1" isn't exactly. This is a
narrow folder with photocopied records from an unknown source provided by North Carolina State
Archives. Despite its odd appearance, it is indexed along with the more traditional will
books. Finding it is difficult at best. Sometimes you can find it on top of the cabinet
holding the remainder of the older record books for the county. Sometimes you can't find
it. Fortunately, the wills contained in it have been transcribed by Philip Underwood-Sheppard
and are included here.
Transylvania County estate records dating from 1810 to 1951 are located at
North Carolina State archives. An index is located at: http://www.ah.dcr.state.nc.us/sections/archives/arch/FindingAids/Transylvania.htm
. When requesting estate records please include the name date, and
the accession number that beings "C. R."
