Research Notes

Probate, 1829-1832: Probate papers are about 75 pages with many inventories, bills, etc. Probate names Joseph Beach administrator and bond paid 30 Aug 1830. By that date there is no widow. It gives a death date of 19 Aug 1829. Document names Rodolphus, William (unclear), Dwight, and Amanda as heirs. All are named as minors initially and later Rodolphus comes of age. Rodolphus is Rodolphus Tryon, William would be William H. Tryon, Dwight would be Edwin Dwight Tryon, Amanda would be Emeline Amanda Tryon. There is also a daughter Susan (Tryon) Wing who is not mentioned here but is a documented daughter.
