They do probates for everyone even if to prove they didn't have anything except debts.I have the probate file for my 3ggrandfather's first son. He was 27 when he dropped dead from his stool at work.That was 3 Jun 1825.They literally listed the estimated value of his clothes as part of the package,Handwritten,the probate record took a third of a sheet of paper.Got it from the Trumbull County Archivist.Now, with regard to women, yes they do probates, at least for widows.I have the package for my widowed 2ggrandmother, who was fairly well off when she died 7 Apr 1892.She was born in Y'town, Trumbull but died in Y'town, Mahoning after the split.
