Will Book 1, Page 28

Green County Court, Greensburg, Ky.

     In the name of God, Amen, I, Aylett Buckner, of the county
of Green and the state of Kentucky, being weak of body but of
perfect mind and memory do make, constitute and order this my
last will and Testament in manner and form following, revoking
all others by me made, and do acknowledge this to be my last. 
Impremise, all the property which I have heretofore given to my
children, viz., Thornton Buckner, Caty I. [T.] Taylor, wife of
John Young Taylor, Louisa Buckner, wife of Horace Buckner, and
Richard A. Buckner, I confirm to them and their heirs forever. 
Item, I give unto my daughter Elizabeth Buckner the following
property to her and her heirs forever, one negro woman named
Molly, and her children, Lucinda, Mariah, Adaline, and Spencer,
one bed and furniture, one cow and calf.  Item, I give to my son
John Buckner the following property to him and his heirs forever;
one negro man Abraham, one Do Jacob, Lucy, Phillis, Nancy,
Matilda, and Aleseander, also the tract of land I now live on,
and as part of the purchase money is still due, I desire that the
balance of a Bond still due me from James and Rice given to my
son Richard A. Buckner be applied to the payment of the land. 
Also, one bed and furniture with all my stock of every kind, but
the cow and calf before given, and all my household and kitchen
furniture with my gun and pistols.  Item, I give to my son
Richard A. Buckner all my right title and interest that I have to
a tract of land lying in Fauquier County, Virginia, on the watery
mountain adjoining the land I formerly owned, to him and his
heirs forever.  Item, it is also my will and desire that all my
just debts should be paid out of the property which I have given
to my son John Buckner, _______ also by their presents I convey
to my son-in-law, John Y. Taylor, my right title and interest,
which I had to a certain tract of Military land lying now in
Hopkins County, but patented when Logan, which we purchased
jointly of Presley Thornton of Essex County in the state of
Virginia containing one thousand acres, and which was conveyed to
us jointly by the aforesaid Presley Thornton, which I sold to the
said John Y. Taylor and have received full payment of him for the
same to him and his heirs forever.  Item, it is my desire that my
son-in-law, John Y. Taylor shall act as guardian to my son John
Buckner during his minority, and that he may not be compelled to
give Security for his faithful performance of the trust reposed
in him as I can rely on him without, and also further wish that
no Appraisement and Inventory of my estate be made.  In Testimony
where I have hereunto set my hand and affixed my seal this 25th
day of May, 1807.

     Signed, sealed and acknowledged and delivered to be my last
will and Testament in presence of
