Transcriber’s Notes:

John Endsley died 21 Sep 1828 in (then) Bedford County, Tennessee, where he recorded his will and his widow, Mary Endsley, was named Executrix of his will. The final provision of John Endsley’s will could not be completed until after his widow, Mary died. Then her Executors or Administrators were to assure that the remainder of John Endsley’s Estate remaining at his widow’s death was distributed among his heirs. In the mean time, the part of Bedford County the Endsleys lived in at the time of John Endsley’s death in 1828 had become a part of the newly established Marshall County in 1836. Mary Endsley died 13 Oct 1854 without a will. Her son, John Milton Endsley and son-in-law, Willis Burgess, qualified as administrators of Mary Endsley’s estate in Marshall County. One of the administrators’ duties was to finalize the disposition of John Endsley’s estate. Thomas Cummings, half brother of John Endsley, had been one of the subscribing witnesses to John Endsley’s will originally filed for probate in Bedford County in 1828. Thomas Cummings produced a “true copy” of the will in Marshall County court 6 Nov 1854. See John Endsley’s will at Marshall County Will Book A, pages 354-357.
