Estate notices from Springfield Advertiser
1840’s Estate Notices from the Springfield Advertiser
These are a work-in-progress. I will continue adding to the list everytime I go to the library! Date given is the date of the paper each notice was found in. Various counties in Southwest Missouri are represented. Exe.=Executor Exex.=Executrix Ad.=Administrator Adx.=Administratrix *Sometimes what I think is self-explanatory is not. Just in case, here is an example of how to read these: (Estate of Archibald C. Adams, Bennet Robberson Exe. and Robert W. Sims Exe., Greene county, 9 Jul 1844) would mean that Archibald C. Adams is the deceased, Bennet Robberson and Robert W. Sims are the Executors of the estate, the case is filed in Greene county courts, and the paper I found it in is from 9 July 1844. These can be used to gauge an approximate date of death if none is known, or to locate which county the will or probate information can be found in, if surviving. If you are still confused, please don’t hesitate to email me! Estate of William H. Able, James Able Ad., Polk county, 31 Jan 1846 Estate of Archibald C. Adams, Bennet Robberson Exe. and Robert W.
