Lea to receive 1 pound 12 shillings I'm going to have to try to get to the court house in Louisa and read the rest of the will of Ann Lea and see if I can get a little more out of the settlement. The place is only about 20 miles from here. Thanks for the web pages, they helped. I've never figured out why every child will be listed except my ancestor. I know Thomas Craft and Susannah Acuff had a daughter Mary. She and her husband, John Hulse, sold land as heirs of Thomas Craft. Again thanks Sally
