For De Wills, write to Delaware Public Archives
Hall of Records, P. O. Box 1401
Dover DE 19903

List the will records you want. Best to give them Book #, page #, Will
date, Probate date, and Name. They will send you up to 50 pages per
request. Copies are $.50 each page and they get a $3.00 handling fee on
top of that. But they do give you a coupon if you send more than the
charges for a particular request, good for 6 months. For Sussex County,
the info you need to make a request is provided in Marguerite R. Moore's
"Index of Sussex County Delaware Wills, 1800-1851." Family Line Pubs.

Good hunting.
