Necrography

A compilation of documents which accounts for all of a decedent's chattels, including real and personal property, as well as the decendent's Last Will and Testament, so as to account for all such items in the subject Estate. The subject documentation may be compiled by the decedent prior to death or by the Executor/Executrix named in the decedent's Last Will and Testament, or the Administrator/Administratrix appointed by a Probate or Surrogate's Court to settle the Estate.
The deceased person prepared the necrography of possessions, property and Last Will and Testament prior to death so as to ease the burden of probating the Estate by allowing all essential and relevant documentation to be found easily in a single location.
