File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by Virginia Jones

Taken from the copy of the original Jesse Garrett will which I
obtained from the NC Archives.  The will is dated 13 Oct 1796 and
proved Jun 1797. 

Wife is shown as Rachael, sons Jesse, David, Jacob, James, Timothy,
John and Thomas, daughters Celia Eley, Millie, Penny, Mary and
Elizabeth with son-in-law James Cherry (?) as  sole executor.  

[Mille may be the wife of James Cherry as Penny, Mary and Elizabeth
were minors and Celia may have been married to an Eley.]

[The slaves were Toney, Ben, Crummell, Jude, Venus, little Jude,
Jack, Jerry, Silus, Abram, Cesar, Flora, Issac, Valley, Kate and
Ester.  I hope I have read the names correctly.]
