Early probate estate records are recorded on microfilm which must be viewed at the County Clerk’s office during the hours of 9am – 11am and 1pm – 3pm, Monday through Friday. Probate staff must accompany researchers to that office, therefore we request that you call ahead to schedule a time when staff will be available. Walk-ins can only be accommodated on a very limited basis. Please call 517-279-4318 for further information.

The cost for photocopies is $1.00 per page. We cannot guarantee the quality of the copies due to the age of the microfilm.
