Butts County

In the name of God Amen, I, James Wooten being in a low state of health, but of 
sound mind and memory do make and ordain this my last will and testament. Item 
1st I do yield my soul to that God who gave it and my body to the dust from 
whence it came to be buried in a Christianlike manner according to the 
discretion of my executors.
Item 2nd I do next ordain that all my just debts should be paid and next it is 
my wish that all my estate both real and personal should be kept together 
untill my oldest child Edmund Flewellen Wooten comes of age and then that an 
equal division of the property should be made between my wife Anne Wooten, 
Addison Almarian Wooten, Seaborn Lawrence Wooten, Simeon Wooten making the 
arrangements, so that my wife shall have the house and plantation to hold 
during her natural life, and afterwards to be divided among my children. It is 
my further wish that my stock to the use of my family should remain.
Item 3rd I do next appoint and ordain Etheldred McClendon and James Peevy 
executors to this my last will and testament to do all matters and things 
pertaining to the above as they in their discretion shall think fit.


Signed
James Wooten
