Will of Nathan Milbourn, c1808 - Monroe Co. WV

	In the name of God being sick and weak in body but of sound mind and disposing memory for 
which I thank God, and calling to mind the uncertainty of human life and being desirous to 
dispose of all such worldly estate as it hath pleased God to bless me with.  I give and bequeath 
the same in manner following that is to say:
	First, I desire that all the ____________ part of my estate be immediately sold after my 
decease and out of the money arising therefrom, all my just debts and funeral expenses.  I give 
my wife Sally Milbourn all my estate both real and personal for and during the term of her 
natural life and after her death I give the same to my children herein mentioned.
	Thirdly, I give my son Jacob Milbourn all the land from where my line crosses the creek 
betwixt my house and James Ellison and up the creek to the upper end of my meadow and with the 
meadow fence till the corner next to Harvey’s and from thence to a _________ fence betwixt me 
and my son Isaac Milbourn and from thence with said fence to the woods and continuing the same 
course to my line next to Campbell’s and from thence with said line to the creek next to 
Ellison’s.
	Fourthly, I give my son Nathan and Isaac Milbourn all the remainder of my lands to be 
divided as they may think proper.
	Fifthly, I give my daughters Rachel and Polly Milbourn and Sally Shumate all the 
remainder of my estate to be equally divided betwixt them, counting what Sally Shumate has 
already received, and lastly I do hereby constitute and appoint my wife Sally Milbourn, 
executors of this my last will and Testament hereby revoking all other or former wills or 
Testaments by me heretofore made.  In witness my hand and seal July 22, 1808.
