health but being in sound mind and memory, I dispose of my estate in the following 
manner, to wit, I will in the first place for all my just debts to be paid, then I bequeath to 
my beloved wife my plantation during her natural life.  Also all my household and kitchen 
furniture also one horse and cow or as much of the household furniture as she may see 
proper to keep.  Also, I will to my grandchildren, the children of John Fleenor, my son, 
dec'd twenty-five dollars each which they are to get when they come of age.  Also, my will 
and request is that the balance of my estate is to be equally divided amongst my children, 
that is to say, to make them all equal.  With what they have received heretofore, 
excepting Michael Kossel who is to have one hundred dollars more than each of the 
others for his trouble while living with me.  Also it is my Will that Peter Minnech is to be
