CHAPTER XXVIII.

An Act to Alter the Names of Nancy, John and Keziah Lytle, Children of Sarah 
Nichols, Formerly Sarah Lytle, of the Town of Hillsborough.

Whereas, John Nichols, of the town of Hillsborough, and Sarah his wife, have 
by their petition requested that the names of Nancy, John and Keziah Lytle, 
children of the said Sarah, should be altered, and that they should 
henceforward be known by the names of Nancy, John and Keziah Nichols:

I. Be it therefore enacted by the General Assembly of the State of North 
Carolina, and it is hereby enacted by the authority of the same, That 
henceforward and forever hereafter the said Nancy Lytle, John Lytle, and 
Keziah Lytle, shall be known and distinguished by the names of Nancy Nichols, 
John Nichols and Keziah Nichols; and by those names shall have right to 
inherit and claim any estate either real or personal, which may be devised to 
them or either of them by the said petitioners John and Sarah, or either of 
them, in as full and ample manner as if they the said Nancy, John and Keziah 
Lytle had been born in wedlock, and had from the time of their births been 
considered as the legitimate children of the said John Nichols, and Sarah his 
wife; and shall forever hereafter be placed in the same situation, and shall 
be considered to all intents and purposes in the same point of view, as though 
they were legally descended from the said John Nichols, and Sarah his wife, 
and had been born in wedlock as aforesaid.
