South Carolina Barnwell Dist Needham Green of the State and Dist aforesaid, being in my sound mind, but feeble in body; and knowing the uncertainty of human life, and the certainty of death, do make and ordain this my last will and Testament, revoking all others heretofore made. In the first place, it is my wish, that my body be decently buried, trusting that he who formed it out of dust of the earth, will reunite it to my soul at the last day, then and there to behold his face forever. As it regards the worldly good with which It has pleased God to bless me, it is my desire that they be disposed of as follows I leave my Silver watch to my wife Nancy Green as a testimonial of my love and respect for her, hoping that she will keep it as a token of remembrance. The rest of my property both real and personal, consting of lands, negroes, stock, furniture, and property of every description of which I may die pofsefsed; it is my, will and desire that it shall be sold at auction to the higest bidder upon such conditions as shall be judged most advantageous; and that the proceeds of the sale of the whole of my effects. shall be distributed as follows, after paying all of my lawful debts, For the purpose of assisting in the support and education of my minor children I leave and bequeath to my wife Nancy Green one third of the whole of my Estate, during her natural life; and should she die before the said minor children become of sufficient or lawful age it is my wish that the said portion of one third of the proceeds of my Estate shall still be reserved for the support and education of my minor children until they become of lawful age; and after the death of my wife and after my minor children shall become of lawful age it is my wish that the said portion shall be equally divided among all my children. In the next place, It is my will that the remaining two thirds of the proceeds of my Estate shall be equally divided among all my Children with the following restrictions. 1st as my three eldest children viz Sarah Johnson, Eliza Morris, and Green B Green have each received property to the amount of fifty Dollars, it in my will that the said sum of fifty Dollars be discounted from their proportion of my Estate (i e) from each of their portions. 2nd It is my will and desire that the portion of my Estate to which my daughter Eliza Morris shall be entilled, shall be reserved in the hands of my Executor during the life of my daughter the said Eliza Morris unless she should survive her husband Thomas Morris, in which case it shall be paid over to her for her sole use and benefit; otherwise it shall be lent out to the best advantage, and the annual interest appropriated, at the discretion of my Executors, to the support of the said Eliza and her childrem; but should the said Eliza Morris die before her husband Thomas Morris, then and in that case my Executor shall divide the said portion of the said Eliza equally among her children as they come of age for their sole use and benefit. 3rd As I have given to my son Glover F Green a tract of land containing seven hundred and ten acres, it in my will that the. same be accounted for in the divisions of my Estate, and that the sum of three hundred and fifty be fixed upon as the value of the same, which sum of three hundred and fifty Dollars shall be deducted from his equal poportion of my Estate _______ Lastly I nominate and appoint Dr Wm S Johnson and my wife Nancy Green the Executor and Executrix of this my last will and Testament, trusting that they will execute the same to the best of their ability _____ Needham Green (SEAL) Signed, Sealed and delivered in the presence of Griffin Owen Walter Eubanks John M Turner Recorded in Will Book "C" Page 218 Recorded January 4th., 1839 Orsamus D.
