Scope and Content
These three volumes were used to record fees charged for services rendered in probate cases. Printed columns are available to record date (month, day, and year), items, costs assessed for judge, clerk, sundries, and estate, and remarks for each case. Notations are handwritten. The space reserved for case numbers is unused. Volume A covers 30 October 1883 through 28 November 1891, volume B spans 18 December 1891 through 29 April 1896, and volume C encompasses the period from 13 May 1896 to 19 December 1898.
The territorial Cache County Probate Court, predecessor of the state district court, originally produced the probate account books.
Research Note
Because no case numbers are recorded, researchers must obtain that information through the Register of Actions or probate index. Because of the unusual jurisdiction of the probate court, there is a remote possibility that the account books include isolated civil and criminal matters as well as probate cases.
