Most of Shropshire (also known as Salop) was under the pre-1858 probate jurisdiction of either the [[Court of the Bishop of Hereford (Episcopal Consistory)|Court of the Bishop of Hereford (Episcopal Consistory)]] or the [[Court of the Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry (Episcopal Consistory)|Court of the Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry (Episcopal Consistory)]]. The majority of probate searches will be in the records of these two courts and their superior courts. However, the following smaller courts also had some pre-1858 jurisdiction within the county.
