To search the probate records available at the Delaware Public Archives, visit their Probate Database.

All Perkins/Purkins in the probate records are listed on this site.

Note:  If you would like copies of probate records from the Delaware Public Archives, I suggest ordering them directly from the archives, rather than requesting copies of any that I have from me.  Not only is it prohibited for me to make copies, but it is also very laborious and expensive given that the pages are oversized (trip to the copy center + cost of oversized copies) and trip to the post office to determine cost of postage.  You will see that ordering from the archives is at a reasonable cost and their response time is a couple of weeks.

First email the archives regarding the probate records that you are interested in, stating the name, county and year.  They will notify you of the cost which includes postage and handling. 

Below is a letter that I used to order Warner Perkins' probate records of 1849 after their response to my initial inquiry about that probate, their response included the cost of the order.
