I have the same wife and children for Joseph and Martha Neetles Cloud. Martha was buried 2 May 1852 in the Smyrnia Methodist Church yard . Austin is Austin N. Cloud. The will of Joseph Cloud recorded 13 October 1851. If the will was recorded then when did he die and when was it probated? This has me confused. He must have died either in 1851 or 1852. This copy of the will is from The Cloud Family Journal Vlll Book l pages 22/24. It does not say when the will was proven only recorded in Book 19 pg. 33 (no date) Apt.98 File 413. The will list all of the children by name. Margaret > [Original Message] > From: Claude L.
