Vick Source: Library of Virginia, Will Book 4, 1783-1797 Southampton Co, VA Reel 17, page 601 Note: I have listed this Inventory as a "partial", however, there is very little missing: names of appraisers , name of clerk (Samuel Kello was the current clerk at this time), and words to the effect that the Account Current was reported and ordered to be recorded, and date of recording. Numbers may not add properly due to my inability to properly decipher some of them. ___________________________________________________________________ Copyright.
