Records dating prior to 1853 originate from church records.

Obtaining a copy of a full marriage record is important because it will likely list additional information about the bride and groom, and their marriage.

• Source: S500179 Australia, Victoria, Will and Probate Index 1850-2009 Publication: MyHeritage Most of the documentation listed in the probate registers are wills handwritten in narrative form. Probate records are court records created after an individual's death that relate to a court's decisions regarding the distribution of the estate to the heirs or creditors and the care of dependents. This takes place regardless of whether there is a will or not. The Probate Registry is responsible for determining what document or documents constitute the last will of the deceased and/or who is entitled to be the personal representative of the deceased. When these determinations have been made, a grant is issued to the estate of the deceased person.
