The McAllister/McCallister wills are now on line in one file. 1763-1792 six of them. at least two are from what is now Perry Co. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/pa/cumberland/wills.htm Hope it helps someone.... joe

Thanks, jpatter. I've seen the extract, but not the entire will before. I have long thought Tobias could be Daniel's father, but need to do more research. Tax and land records may establish a connection. I'll put them on my to-do list. An original copy of the will or pages from the will book would also be nice to see if the son's name is Samuel or Daniel, as he is called both in the transcription. Also on my to-do list. Found in my notes -- Daniel McAllister d. 3 Nov 1821 and was constable in Rye Twp. Would love to compare notes off list with others researching this name.

Tobias McAllister of Rye Twp had a son Daniel.... who was not 21 in 1795.... This will is not in the archives as yet..... just got it.....

I give and bequeath the same as followeth: 1st of all it is my will and I do order that all my just debts and funeral charges be fully paid and satisfied as soon as convenient after my decease.

I do hereby bequeath unto my son Samuel McAllister to the proper use and behoof of him forever, nevertheless be it provided that if my son Daniel McAllister should happen to died without lawful issue or before he attains the age of 21 years then it is my will that all and every part and parcel of the property which I now bequeath to him shall be equally divided between my wife Hesther and my sister Mary McAllister, that is to say share and share alike after their decease to the nearest heirs. And I nominate constitute and appoint Samuel Deane and James Devin my trusty and loving friends both of Tyrone Twp to be executors of this my last will and testament hereby revoking and making void all and every former will in witness and confirmation thereof I have set my hand and seal this 15th day of June year of our Lord seventeen hundred and ninety five.
