This collection consists of digitized probate records from the hundred of Allertonshire in Yorkshire for the years 1666-1845.  
This collection consists of digitized probate records from the hundred of Allertonshire in Yorkshire for the years 1666-1845. In the period of this collection, Allertonshire was a peculiar of the Diocese of Durham. A peculiar is a locality which is administered by a diocese other than the one where it is actually located; that is, it is exempted from the jurisdiction of the ordinary or bishop in whose diocese it lies and is governed by another. In this case, the parishes of Allertonshire are administered by the Diocese of Durham, rather than by the Diocese of York.
