Here are the Wills and estate court records of Deacon Stephen Hart and some of his descendants. These documents sometimes supply information about family members of the deceased, and the places where they lived. Many of them also give a brief view of the lives of these people who lived so many years ago.

These document were copied from Manwaring's Early CT Probate Records from Hartford District by Nancy Prevost. They preserve the archaic spellings (and misspellings) used in the originals, so it may take some work to read some of them.
