A typical record gives the date that the deceased's will was proved in court, the name of the deceased, the date of death, and the name of the person to whom estate administration was granted. The records also list the value of the estate. Records in this series provide evidence of the process through which wills are probated and processed in British Columbia.

The probate number for each individual is listed at the top of this form until 1975, when this practice ceases partway through the year. Along with the name, this number can be used to trace the probate file in GR-2793. Probate files often contain a copy of the deceased's will.
