State of  Georgia
Haralson  County

In the  name  of  God Amen

I  Robert  Summerville   being  of  advanced  age
and knowing that  I must  shortly depart  this  life
deem  it  right  and  proper  both  as  expects  my
family  and  myself  that I should  make  a
disposition of  the  property  with  which  a  kind
providence has  blessed  me  do  therefore make  this
my  last will  and  testament  hereby  revoking  all 
others  heretofore  made  by me.

Ist  Item    I  direct  that my  body  be  buried  in
a  decent and  Christian-like  manner  suitable  to
my  circumstances and  condition  in  life. My soul
I  trust shall  return to  rest  with  God  who  gave
it as I  hope  for  eternal salvation through  the
attonement of  the  Blessed  Lord and  Saviour Jesus
Christ whose religion I  have  professed and  I
humbly trust I  have  enjoyed for  some  time
passed.

2nd  Item    I  desire  and  direct  that  all my
just  debts  be  paid  without  delay  by my
executors  here  after  to  be  appointed as  I  am
unwilling  my  creditors  should be  delayed in
their  rights.

3rd  Item    I  give  and  bequeath  to my  beloved
wife  Drucilla  Summerville  all my  estate both
real  and personal and paying  my  debts  during  her
lifetime or  widowhood and  at  death or  marriage it
is  my  desire that  my property  be  sold  and
equally  divided between all  my  children.

4th Item    I hereby appoint  my  esteemed  friends
Thomas  Waldrop and  William  Garner  executors of
this  my last  will  and  testament this  18th  April
1864
