LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF DANIEL MARBLE OF
KIRTLAND, LAKE, OHIO 



	Being conscious of my approaching dissolution and realizing my 
obligation as a parent and husband, hoping to be guided by impartial justice 
and in good will to all men and in sympathy and affection with all my family 
I, Daniel Marble, do make and publish this my last Will and Testament.

1st	I give and devise to my beloved wife all the household goods furniture 
and provisions of every kind of which I may be possessed at the time of my 
decease.

2nd	I give and bequeath to my son Leonard W. Marble and to my daughter 
Laura Pierce the farm on which I now reside situated in the Township of 
Kirtland Track 3, Lots 88 and 105 and contains 102 17/100 acres of land being 
all the land I own, each, one equal half. I also give and devise to the above 
named children in equal rights all the stock and personal property of every 
kind (except household goods and provisions as above) which I may own at the 
time of my decease provided the said Leonard W. Marble and Laura Pierce shall 
do according to my request herein after specified.

	It is my request that my said wife Lydia and my unfortunate daughter 
Clarissa be provided with comfortable food and clothing, with medical aid when 
necessary, that they receive all the care and attention which their situation 
and condition may require during their natural lives and that they remain upon 
the farm if they choose.

	It is further my request that my son Leonard W. Marble and my daughter 
Laura Pierce furnish my said wife Lydia and my unfortunate daughter Clarissa 
with such food, clothing, medical aid,  care and attention and that they all 
live together upon the farm.

	Now if my said son Leonard W. Marble and Laura Pierce shall furnish my 
said wife and my said unfortunate daughter Clarissa as specified in my request 
then it is my will that the said Leonard W. Marble and Laura Pierce shall have 
my said farm goods and chattels as hereinfore mentioned.
	
	But if my son Leonard W. Marble and my daughter Laura Pierce shall 
disregard my request or shall fail to provide for my said wife and unfortunate 
daughter Clarissa as specified in my foregoing request, then I hereby 
authorize my executor  to sell the personal property which may belong to my 
estate, and also the real estate if he may deem the same necessary for the use 
and support of my said wife and unfortunate daughter Clarissa, and the 
remainder or residue of my estate, (if there should be any at the decease of 
my wife and Clarissa)  I give and bequeath to my son Leonard W. Marble and 
Laura Pierce their heirs forever. 

	I think justice requires I should make no provision for my daughter 
Lucretia Waist and my daughter Eunice. Hitt.
	I hereby nominate and appoint Alexander Williams executor of this my 
last Will and Testament.

	In witness hereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this the 28th 
day of January in the year eighteen hundred sixty-five.

							Daniel Marble
