Although it is not
required, a resident of the County may deposit his or her Will
for safekeeping with the Probate Court at the request of the
Testator. The Will must be deposited in a sealed envelope
with the following information on the outside of the envelope:
-
Full Name
-
Complete Address
-
Social Security Number
Upon the death of the
testator, a copy of a Will can be released to interested
parties after a death certificate has been submitted to the
Probate Court. If an estate is filed, the will is
incorporated into the estate file.
