Probate Index. Victoria 1840 - 1992

Check The Index

The index can be purchased on microfiche for $1050. It can also be purchased in clumps of years. See our catalogue for details. It can be viewed at many libraries around Australia.

If you do not have access to the probate index we will search it to discover if an estate had a grant for $5 per name. This search covers the year of death plus 20 years.

Cost & Delivery Information

Through Macbeths, retrieval and copies of probate files for the period 1840 to 1992 cost $A50 per file including postage to an Australian address. This includes 20 photocopies. Additional photocopies will be supplied at cost. Copies will take about 4 to 6 weeks depending on the work load of the Public Record Office copy room. Copies over 20 pages are charged at 55 cents per page. Most files are 20 pages although occasionally we retrieve a file of over 100 pages. So if the file you order is 40 pages you will be charged $61. Do we have your authorisation to copy all of the file? Or only pages up to the $50 limit?

When we receive your approval we will process your order on Wednesdays of each week. The delay you will experience before your copies arrive will be about two months.
