What is an Affidavit of Heirship? It is an affidavit (written, sworn statement) that outlines the decedent's family history and identifies the heirs. This is not filed in probate court. This is instead filed in the county records of where the decedent either lived or owned property when they passed away.
The Vital Statistics Section does maintain public indexes of Texas marriages since 1966 and Texas divorces since 1968. We are unable to issue verifications for marriages before 1966 and divorces before 1968.
The Texas affidavit of heirship form must be filled out and filed on behalf of a decedent's heir and can not be completed by the heir. Instead, two disinterested parties who know the necessary details about a decedent's family life need to fill out the form.
1. This form should be completed by someone other than an Heir. This person should be someone who is familiar with the family history of the deceased (decedent), and who will obtain no benefit from the Estate. The person who fills out the form is referred to as the “AFFIANT”.
