FamilySearch.org. Finding probate documents

Open FamilySearch.org. Next to "Family Tree" click on Search.

This is what you will see in the drop down:

Click on "Place" and enter where you want to search in. Enter the state, then the county, and last the town, township, or area. Click on Search.

What should appear is a list of potential  places that you might want to click on to search. In my search for probate records, I chose - United States, New York, Warren.

What you see next is:

I scrolled down and this is what I found:

I chose to look through the Probate Records that has 5 sets of documents. chose the "Estate records, No. 1-13, book of wills.

That led me to this page. I then clicked at: "click here".

This led me to this page in FamilySearch.com. I then clicked on the orange rectangular box on the right, that reads 
Browse all 14,045,639 Images.

These 2 lists are of the New York counties. Just scroll down to the county you want to research through. I clicked on Warren.

Because my ancestor died early on in the history of New York, I picked the entry "Estate records no date no[number] 1 - 159.

After scrolling through 440 pages I found:

Each set of estate records have a cover sheet for the individual who I was looking for! Hurray!!!!! The next 2 pages were dedicated to Jonathan Lord's probate paperwork. The first page talks about that Jonathan's date of date - 14 July 1828 in the town of Queensbury. He left no last will and Testament. The value of the estate did not exceed $80.00. His son Asa Lord was appointed administrator of the Goods and Chattels and Credits. Asa Lord - his son - was added to the end of the document on the 2nd page.
