Death

The Last Will and Testament of Henry Pope, written 23 Oct 1758 and recorded in Southampton, VA on 14 Dec 1758, names "son-in-law Hodges Councill" as an executor. Since wills are not recorded in probate until after the testator is deceased, it is reasonable to assume that Henry Pope died between the two above-mentioned dates, and most certainly before 14 Dec 1758.^[6]
