Wills and Estate Records - Manitoba

Wills and estate records are a provincial responsibility. In Manitoba, estate files are transferred to the Archives of Manitoba after 20 years from rural courts and after 60 years from the Winnipeg court. Records that have not been transferred to the Archives are available at the appropriate court office. See Archives of Manitoba website for more information on probate records.
