Onslow County, North Carolina

State of North Carolina, Onslow County, January the 3rd 1828
I, being in a low state of health at this time and resign my body to the tomb 
and give up my soul to God and being in my perfect senses, do make my last 
will and testament.  Therefore, I give to my beloved wife Esther one Negro 
girl named Marier, this being my last will and testament.  I leave for my 
executors Esther Koonce and David Jenkins.
Therefore I give and leave all the rest of my property that I possess to be 
equally divided between my beloved wife and children.
