I only have an abstract of the will of Robert Jones d 1771 but it reads "Robert Jones, son of brother Richard Jones, 1000 acres of land in Halifax Co." I don't see mention of his leaving land to Richard his brother. >> Dorothy, you are right. I only have the abstract too, and that is what is says, to Robert Jones son of Richard Jones, etc. Thanks for the correction. Craig
