Probate records such as wills, inventories, and administrations are very helpful. Many of these records (especially wills) give names, dates, residences, possessions, and relationships.
The probate materials are usually found in the county courthouses of Nova Scotia. The FamilySearch Library has digitized probate records for all counties, often up to the 1930s or 1960s.
