Elijah made his will 17 Oct 1839, and it was probated in Lowndes Co., Ala., 3 Feb 1840 (Will Book B page 78). He mentions his 11 children. To his son, Jesse IVEY, he left five slaves (Old Jacob, Washington, Little Bill, Sally and Charles) and the northeast quarter and east half of the southeast quarter of section 30, township 16, range 14. To his daughter, Martha LONG, two Negro slaves (Milley and Rose). To Jesse IVEY, in trust for Elijah's daughter, Mary McBRIDE, free from control of her present husband or any future husband, two Negroes (Isaac and Mary), to be held for her children born in wedlock. To the children of Elijah's daughter, Elizabeth EDWARDS, four Negroes (Doll, Lydia, Nancey and Jinney). To his daughter, Sarah TATUM, three Negroes (Jinney, Ibby and Little Jacob). To his son, Samuel IVEY, a Negro boy (Aaron). To his son, William IVEY, a Negro man (Joe) and his riding horse, saddle, bridle, all his wearing apparel, and two cows and calves. To Jesse IVEY, in trust for Elijah's minor sons, Asa IVEY, Curtis IVEY and Elijah P. IVEY, his Negro woman, Bind, Phebe, Fortune, Lucy, Tilda and Amy, and her children: Charlotte, Wyat, Tilda and Younger; and Mary. Also the west half of the southeast quarter and the east half of the southwest quarter of section 30, Township 16, range 14; three cows and calves, 15 hogs, three horses, and three feather beds and furniture. The labor of the slaves was to be used to educate the three youngest children, as the older children had been, as was usual for farmers, until they became of age or married, at which time each was to have one third of the above personal property. Witnesses to the will were Th. MARRISON, Edmd. HARRISON and James K. WHITMAN.
