Interesting, but I have more questions! The person I’m researching died intestate. The dockets listed in his index reading include OC and RD, which I worked out to be Orphans Court and Record of Death. I located the relevant entries in the OC and don’t need the Record of Death. Other dockets include Ac and Au, which I take to mean Accounting and Audit. I’d like to see those records, but don’t know where to look. I also see reference to a Bd docket, which appears to be associated with letters of administration (Bonds?), which were contested according to the Orphans Court docket entries. I’d REALLY like to see the In (inventory?) and Pn (Partition?) dockets!!! Can you help?
