Abbeville County was a very important area of migration of early settlers / pioneers heading West. Probate records are a wonderful set of records when they are available because they mention such things as: proving wills, administrations & divisions of estates, estate sales, guardians appointed and mentions of marriages. This book should be considered a companion book to Pauline Young's Vol. #1 of the same title.
