Last will and testament - where to look?

[Ninkro]

I have ancestry in Hamburg area and i was thinking of looking up there. Who archive has this files? Is it the state archives in Hamburg?

Yes, if such records existed at all and still survived they will probably be there - Staatsarchiv Hamburg.

Hi Ninkro,

please also have a look at Landesarchiv Schleswig-Holstein, Abt. 65.2 Deutsche Kanzlei zu Kopenhagen ab 1730, 3. Spezieller Teil, 3.4 Testamente und testamentarische Verfügungen.
