Mary [partial quote as above] Question: Did the person who sent you this abstracted will cite his/her source? I am most pleased to receive this, in whatever form, but would like to know the source. Reason: My ancestor, Christopher Harris, whose first wife was Mary Dabney, wrote his will in Madison Co., KY which was proved 1 May 1794. In it he lists his *first* children and mentions the will of Cornelius Dabney. I have been wondering about the whereabouts of said Dabney's will for many a year, having given up hope that it had perished among many other Hanover documents. If you have further information concerning Dabney's will, such as a source, I would be extremely pleased. Thank you for posting this information. E.W.Wallace
