Do you index the name if it says Estate of so and so? And then there is the name of the executor. Do you do his name?

    The instruction say:

    • Index all names except those listed in the "Owner" or "Remarks" columns, or names of companies or trusts. Often, names of owners appear on the right side of the image; these names should not be indexed.

    My interpretation of this is, yes you would make a separate entry for each person in your question.

    The instructions for this project are fairly complex and sometimes I have a difficult time deciding if it is a person, company or Trust.

    Hope this helps
