Will Book ___, Page 495
Proven: January Term, 1852

Mediating on the uncertainty of human events being of advanced age, but of sound mind and disposing memory do make this my last Will & Testament, hereby revoking all others heretofore made by me.

In the first place, I give unto Almighty god the care of my soul.

I bequeath and give unto my daughter Nancy and her husband Daniel Harrell all my property and effects of every kind and description, consisting of debts, money and ever other description of property I may die seized and possessed of.

I hereby constitute and appoint my son-in-law Daniel Harrell my Executor to this my last Will & Testament, authorizing my said Executor to act without the requirement of security.

In testimony of which I have hereunto set my hand and seal This 14th day of September in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and forty eight.

Fanny [X] Walters (seal) (her mark)

Attest:

James Amis
Thomas Purcell
Clemens [X] Winegar (his mark)
