    3. Again, I have no other information. However, since the Vol and date is mentioned you might get someone to search for complete info. I have no way to verify this. Winnette SCMAR, Vol. XV, Spring 1987, No. 2, p.75 James Stanhope Corry, b. ca. 1814. On Sept. 15, 1848, he petitioned the York Dist. Ordinary for guardianship of his son Wm B.D.K. Curry, minor, shewing that this minor was entitled to a share of the estate of his uncle Sam'1 D. Barron, decd.[139] The Union District 1850 Census shews James Corry living adjacent to his mother Nancy Corry. He was 36 years of age, a planter, with wife Cynthia, aged 24 and two sons. His Will was dated Aug. 4, 1854, stipulating: "My negroes to operate in Mississippi under care of Col. Rogers and Nathaniel Smith for one or two years . then to be hired out until my eldest son Wm B. D. comes of age. Then Wm B. D. will receive one fourth, James Andrew, and Abram Smith one fourth as they come of age. My wife to receive the other fourth. My children shall receive a good English education. Wm B. Decalb is to have what is coming from the Baron (sic: Barron) estate, James Andrew what is coming from the Jeffries estate. Should Mrs. Smith be unfavorable to Wm B. D. in the disposition of her estate, then he is to have what may come fron Mrs. Nancy Corry's estate. My wife Synthia, Nicholas Corry, M. M. Montgomery, John W. Goudelock, and A. White my executors, and Nathaniel Smith and B. F. Rogers my agents in Mississippi." There is no date of probate on the Will, as the Ordinary refused to receive it. Thereupon John Smith of York District prayed for Letters of Administration.[140] --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
