Mother: Sally EASTON |
First, I give and devise unto my wife, Sally, a piece of land to
be taken out of the tract whereon I now live--beginning above
Thomas Crumpton's. where Descon's line crosses Battle Swamp,
running thence along Descon's line until it strikes the path
leading from my house to Benjamin Munday's, thence along that
path to the public road until it comes to a lane leading to my
house, thence along that lane until it gets past a corn field
lying northerly from the lane, thence leaving the lane and
turning toward Battle Swamp so as to include that field and to
run one hundred yards easterly below its fence until it strikes
a small branch which heads in that field, then down that branch
to the main Battle Swamp, and then up the swamp to the
beginning, upon which said land the office is to be removed and
fitted up as good as a house built for her, at the expense of my
estate, and the discretion of my executors, to her, my said
wife, for life, with a power of giving the same in fee, either
by deed, will or appointment, to or among my child or
grand-child, children or grand child proceeding from my first
marriage. I also give to my said wife the three slaves, Ben,
Hannah and Lewis, four cows with calf, or four cows and calves,
as she chooses; her choice of all my horses; four head of sheep,
such
as she may choose; a sow and pigs; half the fowls; her choice of
a bed and furniture; two quilts, such as she may may choose;
twenty-five pounds worth of such articles of the estate as she
may choose, at the appraised value; and one year's provision of
corn, fodder, meal and wheat, according to the discretion of my
executors, all in absolute property. I also give to my said wife
a negro girl, Charlotte, daughter of Jenny, for life, with a
power of disposing of her similar to her power over the land,
unless she shall have a child by me, in which case I invest her
with the power of giving the slave, Charlotte, and her increase
to or among any child or grand-child, children or grand-children
of mine, the fruit of my present marriage. But, if my wife fail
to make such disposition, then the said land, or the said
Charlotte, with her increase, or
both, if undisposed of according to her respectives powers,
shall, after my wife's death, go as the residue of my estate of
their respective kinds is hereinafter disposed of. All of which
devises and bequests are made to my said wife in lieu of dower,
and as a satisfaction for every claim she might, by law, have
made upon my estate. But, if any of the Negroes given to my said
wife should be recovered from her by law, my estate is to make
good to her the value of her or them so lost.
Second. I have made sundry advances to most of my children of
which I have made out an account, excluding trifling articles,
and upon which I have charged some interest in order to do
justice among them, but I have not charged full interest nor
continued it beyond the present year, since it operated
unequally in favor of my two youngest children. Having thus
estimated, upon equitable principles, in order to enable myself
to do justice among my children, I have charged Ambrose with
Malon, and one bed and furniture advanced to him, amounting with
interest to o 66-5. William with Peter, and one bed and
furniture and interest o 63-15. Thomas with Joe, and interest, o
44. Lucy with Lydia, and one bed and furniture and interest,
o60. Nancy with Frank and Phillis, and one bed and furniture and
interest, o62-10. Sally with o 50, cash, a bed and furniture,
Ned, and her husband' s bond for 1000 pounds of tobacco (which
bond I hereby give him), and interest, L 100-5. Joanna with 100
acres of land, Jabell, a bed and furniture and interest, o
190-1. Betsy with Kit, a bed and furniture and interest, o
57-10.
To my daughter Polly I have made no such advances. Averaging
these sums by eleven, each part is o 31-15, which sum is exceed
in the advance to my daughter Sally to the amount of o 108-9,
and to my daughter Joanna to the amount of o 108-5, which
respective sums are to be paid out of the shares of my estate
hereafter given to the children of my said daughters Sally and
Joanna, in the following proportions, in order that the advances
to such may be made equal.
To my son Ambrose the sum of o 7-11; to his children o 15-11;
to the trustees of the daughter of William o 13-1. To Thomas o
37-16.
To Lucy's trustees o 1-16. To Nancy's trustees o-19-6. To Rachel
trustees o15-11.
To Betsy o 24-6. To Polly;s trustees o 81-16.
Third. I give to my Daughter Polly a negro girl named Frankie,
upon the same terms upon which I shall presently give her a
share of the residue of my estate. This negro I give her over
and above a child's part.
Fourth. Out of my patented lands in the Eastern Country I give
four hundred acres each to my two sons, John and Thomas, and one
hundred and thirty-three acres each to my daughter Polly, to
them and their heirs respectively.
I also give four hundred acres of the same lands to the daughter
of my son William, and her heirs, if she should either attain
the age of twenty-one years or should have a living child; but
if she dies before she arrives at the age of twenty-one years,
and without a child or grandchild living at the time of her
death, I give the land to my sons and their heirs, equally to be
divided. If
these lands should not measure to the exact amount, a surplus is
to be divided among the same persons in the same proportions and
on the same terms, and loss is to be deducted proportionally
also. My son Ambrose had his share of eastern lands already, but
as he for my account, engaged a person to locate this land for a
portion thereof, which portion I have reserved in this devise, I
give the residue of the western lands, as reserved, to my said
son Ambrose and his heirs, for the sole purpose of enabling him
to comply with that engagement, and not for a benefit for
himself.
All the rest and residue of my estate I direct to be paid by my
executors on twelve months credit, to the amount of which sales
are to be added to my debts and chattels of every kind,
including in the former a debt due to me by my son-in-law,
George Walden, for monies lent to him, and a bond due to me from
the estate of my son William which bond is to be allotted as a
part of his daughter's share, and this aggregate is to be
divided in the following manner:
The product of the sale of the land on which I live is to be
divided into ten equal parts, three of which I devise to
Ambrose, Thomas and Betsy, each one; absolutely one other to
each of the children of my son John as shall live to the age of
twenty -one years or to have a child, absolutely equal to be
divided among them;
one other part to my son-in-law. George Walden, in trust, for
the use of my daughter Nancy Puller, during her life, and after
her death to be conveyed by him to such person or persons as she
shall by writing under her hand appoint, and in default hereof,
for the use of my other residuary legatees of land money;
one other part to my grand-son John Harris, in trust for the use
of his mother, Lucy Bowcock, to apply the profits or interest to
her sole and separate use during her life, and after her death
equally to be
divided among the children or their representatives, according
to the rule of the Act of Distribution;
one other part to the daughters of my daughter Sally Gale,
absolutely equally to be divided among them.
One other part of my sons-in-law John Puller and George Walden
in trust for my daughter Rachel Munday to apply the interest and
profits to her sole and separate use during her life, and after
her death equally to be divided among her children or their
representatives, absolutely according to the Act of
Distribution.
One other part to the children of my daughter Joanna, absolutely
equally to be divided among them; and the remaining part to my
said two sons-in-law in trust, to apply the profits or interest
for the use of my daughter Polly during her life, and after
death to go according to the rule of the Act of Distribution.
And as the money produced by the sale of the residue of my
estate, and by my debts,after debts paid, I direct it to be
divided into eleven parts, the parts of which I bequeath to the
same persons, respectively, upon the same terms and for the same
uses as the ten parts of the land money are to be devised; And
the remaining eleventh part I bequeath to my said two sons-in-
law in trust for the use of my son William's daughter, to pay
the same to her with its profits or interest upon her coming of
age or having a living child, but if neither of these events
should happen, then in trust to go in equal proportions with and
according to the terms of my other residuary estate, in ten
equal parts.
Fifth. But before the residuary shares given to the daughters of
my daughter Sally, and to the children of my daughter Joanna,
are paid, the surplus of the advancements before stated, are to
be taken out by my executors, and applied to equalize all the
advancements as before stated, which said sums so paid are to be
in trust or absolutely with the respective shares of my
residuary estate, and to be subject to the same terms and
conditions.
Sixth. Any trustee or trustees may purchase or not of my estate
for the use of the trust as he or they may conceive to be most
advisable, and my executors may assign any bonds due to my
estate, or for sales thereof, in discharge of my several de
visages and bequests.
Seventh. But if I should have any child or children hereafter to
be born, my will is that such child or children shall come in
for an equal share of all my property (in Kentucky or Western
Lands, and the slave Franky given Polly excepted), with any of
my children now living, upon the principle of this my will
--even including the surpluses of the advancements aforesaid,
which, in that case, will be somewhat increased, and the shares
will be lessened.
Lastly I appoint Col. Edmund Pendleton, Jr., John Pendleton, Jr.
and John Taylor, Executors of this my last will, and executed
this 29th day of August, One thousand seven hundred and
ninety-three.

A Codicil to John Walden's Will
A Codicil, to this my will, made the 11th day of September 1794.
Upon further consideration I devise and bequeath the following
alterations to my Will, above written.
1. In lieu of the land devised to my present wife, Sally, I give
and devise to her a part of the tract on which I now live,
beginning above Thomas Crompton's where Discon's line crosses
North Battle Swamp, returning thence along Descon's line until
it strikes the path leading from my house to Benjamin Munday's,
thence along that path to the public road until it comes to the
north of the lane leading to my house; thence along a path being
a near way to the house, through the field by a cherry tree in
the bottom to a persimmon tree on a rise; thence southerly a
straight line to the head of a branch, where the old road to the
house used to cross; thence down that branch above the peach
orchard to Sourth Battle Swamp below Burke's Mill and keeping
the same course one hundred yards beyond it; thence running
parallel with the said swamp one hundred yards southerly thereof
until it strikes Mr. John Pendleton's line; thence with his line
and the line of the Honorable Edmund Pendleton up South Battle
Swamp to the beginning. One Moiety of which said land I devise
to her for life, and the other moiety during her widow-hood. I
also give to my said wife Sally, the cart, her choice of a pair
of oxen, and
the loom with all its slays, harness and other appurtenances.
11. In lieu of all the devise in the seventh clause of my will,
having no other child born, I give and devise to my youngest
child, Edmund, one moiety of land given to his mother, on her
second marriage, and the other on her death, and one twelfth
part of the residuary estate mentioned in the fourth clause of
this my will(the land money excepted), of which he is to have no
part, which said residuary estate, that money excepted, and the
advancements, are now to be settled according to the principles
of my will, by twelve instead of eleven, also a mare I had of
John Harris, or if she should die before I do, my other horse to
be selected by my executors, all of which Proper I give to
Edmund in fee simple and absolutely except in case he should die
under age, and without a child living at the time of his death;
the whole thereof in that event to be divided among my eleven
children residuary legatees in the fourth clause mentioned, as
if it had constituted a part of that residue.
In the division of my estate I direct that Edmund shall have a
negro girl name Charity, at the value of thirty pounds.
111. My son Ambrose having agreed to give 150 acres of my
Kentucky land to save Then whole for ten years, I devise that
the contract be fulfilled, and that for this purpose the
divisions of that land do contribute in proportion out of their
devises.
V. My son Thomas is to be charged ten Pounds for a bed and
furniture given to him since the date of my will.
V.I do not mean to revoke any bequest in favor of my wife
contained in my will, that relating to the land excepted, which
is indeed included in the land now devised her.
