I, John Bauman, living in Codorus Township, York County, Province and State of Pennsylvania, have thought to make my Testament and Last Will while still possessed of good understanding. First I commit my soul into the hands of my God and my body to the earth from which it came. After my death, my body is to be buried according to Christian rites. Also, it is my will that after my death all my debts are to be paid. Also, it is my will that my son, Jacob Bauman, May have the place where I live, after my death, for 400 pounds, and I leave him all my rights therein, that he May possess it after my death and that of my wife. Also, it is my will that in addition to the place he shall have four horses, the necessary harness, a wagon, the plow, the ---, and the windmill, also a cow and a steer; this he is to have with the place for 400 pounds. Also, my son Jacob Bauman is to have his share of the 400 pounds, and after my death and that of his mother, he shall pay yearly 20 pounds to each of his brothers and sisters, in good money, silver or gold, and it is my will that he begin with my eldest son, John Bauman, who is to have five pounds in advance and then 20 pounds out of the place. (Here several words are illegible in the fold of the paper.) My children are to inherit the one the same as the other, and as above stated the beginning is to be made with the oldest son, and then my daughter Elizabeth, who is married to Henry Hess, she receiving 20 pounds in silver or gold, and thereafter my daughter Anna Maria, who is married to Abraham Schwartz, is also to receive 20 pounds in silver or gold. Thereafter my son Henry Bauman, and then my son Philip Bauman and then my daughter Eva Bauman, and when they all have received 20 pounds then he is to begin again with the oldest son and again pay 20 pounds to each in the order stated above. And it is my will that my daughter Eva Bauman shall have on the place a cow, a bed, bedstead and what belongs thereto. Also, it is my will that my son Henry Bauman shall have the loom and the weaving equipment for four pounds. Also, it is my last will that my son Jacob Bauman shall pay nothing from the place to his brothers and sisters until after my death and that of my wife. Also, it is my last will that my son Jacob Bauman from now on shall yearly and every year deliver to me twenty bushels of wheat, ten bushels of corn, eight bushels of maize, half the products of the garden, one-third of the potatoes, six bushels of turnips and a third of the fruit. Also, three cows are to be kept after the manner of nature, by pasturing in the fields, but in winter they are to be fed in the stable. Also, four sheep are to be pastured in the fields. Also, three hogs. Also, my son Jacob Bauman is to provide as much firewood for the house in summer and winter as the father needs, and must cut it small. (Blotted word.) The father agrees to keep -- horses, but when he does not need the horses, the son Jacob May use them. Also, the father agrees to supply 20 pounds of hemp or flax. Also, it is my last will that my wife Barbara Bauman shall have half the before mentioned products of the place after my death, and she is also to have two cows as long as the youngest daughter remains unmarried. Then she is to have one of the cows. It also is my will that my wife shall have a widow-seat in the house where we live so long as she remains my widow. Also, my son Jacob Bauman shall give her yearly half of the forementioned articles (?) and shall give her yearly one pair of shoes, one bushel of salt. Also, it is my will that my wife shall have one hundredweight pork well cured, also firewood for the house in summer and winter as much as she needs, also one-third of the garden products, also space in the cellar or springhouse. Also, my son Jacob Bauman is to maintain a steer for my wife as long as she lives. Also, my wife shall have one-third part of ??? (one line of typing not properly copied). ...is to have the right to her kitchen utensils, as much as she wishes, also her spinningwheel. Also, it is my last will that the remainder of my house furnishings after my death be divided among my children share and share alike. Also, my son Henrich Bauman is to have the bed on which he lies. Also, it is my last will that my son Henrich Bauman and my son-in-law Henrich Hess shall be my executors. Also, I acknowledge before witnesses that this is my last will and I recall all others ever made ... I acknowledge before witnesses with my hand and seal the 30th July, in the year 1794.
