Tompkins County Probate Records

The Tompkins County Surrogate Court holds probate records dating back to 1818. However, access to these records depends on the type of probate matter. For example, wills are publicly accessible, but estate tax returns, adoption records and documents from guardianship proceedings are confidential court documents.
