Orphans' Court Register Docket, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania, Volume 1, 1789-1899 - Lorraine Quillon

Descriere Orphans' Court Register Docket, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania, Volume 1, 1789-1899 - Lorraine Quillon

\nA message to readers from the compiler: Why Mifflin County, Pennsylvania? For a very selfish reason - Mifflin County is where the first known records of my third-great-grandfather were created. As of July 2025, I will celebrate the 52nd anniversary of the beginning of my search for David SCOTT, Sr.'s parents and siblings. The search is both wearing and energizing. I mean, what would I do if I actually found what I have been looking for? (Those of you with similar brick walls, have you ever considered the answer to that question?)\n \nAlthough a lot of Mifflin County records are not easily accessible, these Orphans' Court records are available through the FamilySearch Catalog. However, there are no indexes to them. So it seemed prudent to transcribe and index them to make finding individuals easier.\n \nSadly, these records do not definitively establish a relationship between the participants. There may be clues, but some additional work will probably be required to discover them. What they do reveal is (a) an approximation of the time of death of the principles, and (b) those who participated in the winding-up process of probate for those individuals. In a worst-case scenario, the only thing you may learn is (c) that your POI (Person of Interest) was on the ground in this area at this time.\n \nPlease make generous allowances for spelling (both the original writers and the compiler's handwriting interpretation skills). If most of the consonants of your name are there, give it a second look. And ideally, look at the actual record. Frame numbers are provided to allow for easy access to the actual image from which the information was taken. - Happy hunting!\n \n\n \n\n
