Can of Worms!). Even set up the old address on my computer....DUH!!!! [email protected] is old address. [email protected] is new address. \--\--\--\--\--\ As to date on "will" being prior to formation of county: This is what one of the CROCKER researchers says" QUOTE: A) It says the will is *dated* 1762 --that doesn't tell us when he died. There should be other dates, like date will was proven in court, and dates of probate court actions that would give a better idea of when the case was being probated. B) Probate sometimes goes on for twenty years after death, so it could actually have been probated in Nash Co. C) Court Records sometimes ended up in the final county even though that county was not in existence at the time. This is apparently what happened to the Anthony Crocker will since it is not in Granville Co. but in one of the other counties that was later formed from Granville. Does that help? ----- Original Message ----- From: crockersmith <[email protected]> To: Mike CROCKER <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, May 07, 1999 8:26 PM Subject: FW: [NCNASH-L] Nash County dates > Have you run across this type of situation? > > Shelby CROCKER-Smith > > -----Original Message----- > From: psmartoc [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: April 18, 1999 9:38 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [NCNASH-L] Nash County dates
