		I Thomas Dunn of said County do make publish and declare this 
to be my last will and testament hereby revoking all former wills by me 
made.

First		I wish all of my just debts to be first paid.

Secondly	I will and bequeath unto my grandson William Thomas Dunn 
three hundred and fifty dollars and besides this he is to have nothing 
more from my estate ~ So far as this bequest is concerned.  I nominate 
and appoint my son Ishmael Dunn Trustee and Guardian for my said grandson 
to take and receive said legacy & lend the same out upon good surety & to 
pay the same together with such interest as may accumulate thereon over 
to my said grandson when he arrives at the age of twenty one years ~

Thirdly 	I will & bequeath and devise all the rest and residue of my 
estate both real and personal ..... ready money &c to my children John 
Vines Dunn, Ishmael Dunn, Thomas Dunn, Nancy Kener, Priscilia Bell, Sarah 
W. Jordan and Mary P. Dunn to be equally divided between them.  Remarking 
however that whereas my son in law David Dunn is owing me two hundred and 
fifty dollars cash advanced for which I hold his note, and whereas I hold 
the note of my son in law William A. Jordan for nine hundred dollars 
dated the sixth day of December eighteen hundred and thirty nine and due 
the seventh of December eighteen hundred & forty ~ Now my will is that 
the foresaid notes be regarded as advancements to my said daughters Sarah 
W. and Mary P. upon which interest unto be paid from the time said notes 
respectively fall due, that is to say, said note of two hundred & fifty 
dollars is to be regarded as an advancement of so much money unto my said 
daughter Mary P. and said note of nine hundred dollars is to be 
considered as an advancement to my said daughter Sarah W. for which they 
are to account on the final division of my estate.

Fourth		I will and bequeath whatever portions of my estate may 
fall unto my daughter Sarah W. Jordan unto my son Ishmael Dunn in trust 
for the use of my said daughter Sarah W. during her life and after her 
death the same to be equally divided among her children.

Fifth		I hereby nominate & appoint my son Ishmael Dunn Executor of 
this my last will & Testament.  

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand & seal this eleventh day 
of January in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and forty 
two.
Signed sealed & published and declared to be the last will & testament of 
Thomas Dunn in the Presence of us.
