James Gibson Will

In the name of God Amen: I James Gibson of the county of Rutherford and State of
Tennessee, of sound mind and memory do make and publish this my last will and
Testament in manner and form following. I give and bequeath unto my grand
daughter Elizabeth Barlow a feather bed and furniture. I give and bequeath unto
my daughters, Polly Henderson and Betsey Patterson fifty dollars each to be paid
in cash at my decease by my son Matthew unto whom I give and bequeath all and
every Real and personal property of which I may die possessed of, and in
particular a note of hand executed by my said son Matthew in my favor for two
hundred and odd dollars which was put by me into the hands of my son James for
sake keeping. ­ And it is my will that the said note be null void and of no
effect, in Law or Equity against my said son Matthew, he being bound for the
payment of the said sum of fifty dollars to each of my forenamed two daughters
at my decease. And I hereby appoint my son Matthew my sole executor to this my
last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills by me made.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 24th day of
January A.D. 1835.
Singed Sealed and Acknowledged                              his
