De meeste documentatie in de nalatenschapsregisters zijn handgeschreven testamenten in verhalende vorm. Nalatenschapsgegevens zijn gerechtelijke gegevens nadat een individu is gestorven en betreffen de verdeling van de bezittingen aan de erfgenamen of schuldeisers en de zorg voor afhankelijke personen. Dit vindt plaats onafhankelijk van het het bestaan van een testament of niet. Het nalatenschapsregister is verantwoordelijk voor de vaststelling welk document of welke documenten de laatste wil van de overledene vormt en/of wie gerechtigd is de persoonlijke vertegenwoordiger van de overledene te zijn. Als deze beslissingen zijn genomen, wordt een gift gedaan uit de nalatenschap van de overleden persoon.
