It can be tempting to ignore subpoenas in court records as “necessary details” that don’t warrant reading. That’s a mistake. Those slips of paper can provide significant details. In the United States, they should provide the jurisdiction where the individual was living (usually the county) which may not be the county in which the case was being heard.
In the case of the example, the subpoena contained an easier reading of the names of the witnesses to the will that was being admitted to probate.
