Probate Records in Stanislaus County CA

[Joe Morgan]

I'm new to wholesaling and doing some research in preparation for future deals.  One of my areas of interest in regard to developing leads is reviewing probate records.  I want to search recordings/records in my area (Stanislaus County).

I've read several postings that suggested going down to the court and/or county recorder and tried that today.  I was told that the county does not have an automated system that lists probate filings and that there is no list or other method for the public to review the records in mass.

Does anyone have experience with Stanislaus County in this regard and have advice on how to accomplish what I'm trying to do?
