Here is something for all of us to remember, children may not be in wills for many reason, I am sure this is a common one... >> you want to know why Nancy was not mentioned in the will, I suppose that the old man thought she had got enough, when she left him, she took with her the black boy they called Sampson, and the little gray mare, besides other things, if the boy had a been there at the sale I believe he would sold for as much as Jim and Jim sold for upwards of $900 and I am told that Sleeth [Sluth?] was only to pay back $140 or 50 dollars--which make her ahead of any of the children yet, <<
