The Danish Estate Records[edit | edit source]
On 20 December 2012, FamilySearch uploaded over 2.5 million records created by the estates of Denmark! These records include probates, farm contracts, tax records, and much more! Unfortunately, the records were uploaded without a way of understanding which estate a researcher should look in to find their ancestors.
The Project Goal: The finished project will allow researchers to better decide which estate an ancestor would have belonged to. This goal will be accomplished by creating wiki pages of each estate. The pages will list the properties that belong to the estate, along with a brief history of the estate (if available), and information of/links to available records.
To learn more about the record type see the article, Denmark, Estate Records - FamilySearch Historical Records.
