I finally received the Benjamin Edmondson will dated August 1823. Parker received the land where Benjamin lived. It appears that Barbery was still at home and Parker may have been as well as the will requests Parker find her a home and reasonable support so long as she may live unmarried. The will stipulates that two horses and all other stock as well household and kitchen furniture, and all other property be sold by executors on a credit of twelve months and the proceeds thereof to be equally divided between my children no alive share and share alike. Sterling and Parker were Executors. No further names are mentioned but because the will states that proceeds divided between my children, could there be more children? The land was conveyed to Benjamin by John Vikers in 1816 containing 76 acres. A complete description of the land is included in the will. The Will was proved by R. W. Long, and Samuel Thompson. R. McClub and Mary G. Gillespie were also listed as witnesses.
