Probate courts were established after Idaho became a state. For a more detailed account of probate courts, see the Idaho Court Records section. Idaho probate records include appraisals, claims, estate cases, fee books, final accounts, guardianships, inheritance tax records, inventories, letters, and wills. These records are available at the various county courthouses.
