Document found by Eunice Showalter. Recorded 3 June 1752 Will Book 2, p.37 Written Sep 1751. Francis's father, Matthias was administrator of his son's estate. Document implies that Francis was married as it names his wife's wearing apparel, etc. Women could not legally own property, it belonged to their husbands, therefore she may or may not have died previously. The sale bill should show who bought her clothes to see if she was still living. past4meSaraPatton originally shared this on 04 Oct 2016
