Nearly 4,000 Guardianship Bonds index records, ranging from 1872-1955, with one in 1966, were abstracted by volunteers whose names were not identified in a datafile that was previously published on-line. This datafile was found in an Internet Archive and has been presented here with no intention of copyright infringement.
This Web site is not responsible for the data entry. However, if you discover errors, please advise so we can correct the datafile. Click the Contact Us link on this page. Please be sure to identify the source (this database) when you send corrections.
Research Tip: Guardianships were not just for children. Adults who required a conservator for any legal reasons were also granted guardians by the Court.
Please enter at least the surname of either the Ward, Guardian, or Heir -- or any combination of the three. Considering spelling variations, you may want to enter just the first 4 or 5 letters of a surname initially.
You may narrow your search by including a record year or a given name. Please note that many records contain only initials, rather than complete given names. If you find a record of interest, consider doing a page number search (with no names) to see what other names are included in the record.
Important! Regardless of the number of matches (hits) that may result from your search, you will only be able to view the first 75 records returned by the system. This was done to circumvent harvesting by unscrupulous individuals.
