Will Book A Abstracts 1836-1885 Bartow County, GA WILL BOOKS The History of the Will Books in Bartow County Court House is very important to the many researchers who are trying to tie a part of their lives to those of the past. Many of the surnames in these Wills have descendants still living in Bartow County today. Some Wills were made in another Town, County, or State, but was probated in Bartow County. I abstracted the Will Book A and Will Book B in 1993. Microfilm of the records are on file at: Georgia Department of Archives and History 330 Capitol Ave. SE Atlanta, Georgia 30334, The books are very fragile, but on file at the Bartow County Georgia Probate Office, where you will find Probate Judge Mitchell Scoggins and his friendly staff ready to point you in the right direction.
