In the name of God Amen

I, Thomas Bilbrew of the County of Muhlenberg and State of Kentucky, being
of sound mind and memory and understanding, but considering the uncertainty
of this life think fit to make this my last will and testament in the
following manner Viz;

As touching as my worldly estate it is my will that all my just debts be
paid, faithfully paid.

1st, I give and bequeath unto my beloved wife Elizabeth Bilbrew all the real
and personal property of my estate during her widowhood, she is to manage
the children as she pleases but to keep them together if she can.

There is 200 acres of land known by the name of the Hagland place to be
equally divided among my lawful heirs. Also the tract that I now live on is
to be for a home for my wife then to be divided among my lawful heirs.

And last I do constitute Abraham Noflsinger and Peter Nall my executors of
this my last will and testament. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my
hand and affixed my seal this 12th day of December 1827

Signed and acknowledged in presence of us.

                                        Thomas Bilbrew  (seal)
Teste; Martin Ke ?? inger, John Gray
