In the Name of God Amen - - -
I John Mabry Senior of Trigg County and State of Kentucky Being Sound of mind and mimory, and knowing that is is opointed for all men once to die: Do hereby make and ordain this my last will and Testamint as follows (to wit) My will and and desire is that my Lands be divided off in the following manner (towit)

I wish my beloved son John Mabry to have the two hundred acre tract of land on which he now lives marked G. and as said tract contains about 250 acres.

I give to Peggy Bounds forty acres off said tract bounded as follows (towit)Beginning on bank of Little River at a Beech ash and Spanish Oak near the mouth of a Gully and running thence No. 26 degrees w. 186 poles to two elms and red bud on said gully, (the meadows of said gully to be the line betwixt said Peggy Bound and said John Mabry)Conveince continued 52 poles further in all 238 poles to a white oak in the barkine of the original 200 acres survey and next to Anna Mitchell's land, thence with said line S. 15 deg w. 60 poles to a hickory sugar tree and large popler the corner of the said 200 acres survey, thence S. 26 deg E 150 poles to three Beeches marked WK on the bank of Little River thence up the meadows of said River S. 7 deg E 54 poles to the Beginning.

I wish my beloved son Lewis Mabry to have a 120 acre tract marked A, and a part of a 200 acre tract (what is on the North side of the River, on which I now live, Beginning at a Double Linn and Sugar Tree on the Bank of the River on the upper side of the mouth of the Creek, Thence No. 55 deg E. passing a large Cherry tree standing about 26 yards southwardly of the grave yard to a stake in the old liner including what is called the Big field .

I give to my Beloved Son Francis Allen Mabry the remainder of the tract of land on which I now live including the houses, plantation orchard marked B, also a 200 acres tract marked D and a 50 acre tract marked #, also a 12 acre tract marked C, the 200 acre tract marked F. I have given 100 acres of it to my beloved daughter Betsy Mitchell, since lost, the rest of said tracts - bottom of page missing.

Thomas Mitchell the children of my Beloved Daughter Polly Mitchell dec'd., if they live to come of age, or the survivor of them -- and as my Beloved Son Jesse Mabry is dead, I wish his daughter Elizabeth Mabry to have sixty acres of the said 200 acre tract called the hickory cabbin tract, adjoining the lands of Mr. Carson and Whitney and that the rest of said tract be equilly divided bitwixt my beloved daughter Nancy Mabry and Beloved Granddaughters Narcissa Mabry -- My other sons ( to wit) 335 acres on Sugar Creek sold to Mr. Jones in Livingston County, I wish to be sold. --- and the 125 acre tract on Ramseys and Lick Creeks, if I do not sell it.
 
 

I give to my son Allen., all the farming utensils I wish son allen to have them and keep them on the plantation for himself and the use of his Mother, to whom I leave the plantation and stock of horses; cattle, hogs, and sheet etc. for her use and benefit during her natural life or widowhoood, dividing them amongst the children as she shall think best, reserving to herself, during her life aplenty for her own support.

There is a piece of land containing about 25 acres adjoining the land I give to Betsy Mitchell; it lies on Little River including the bluff opposite the Fish trap, and is marked 25 in the Connection? and I want my son Allen to have it.

There is a tract on the south side of the river that I sold to Isaac Wright ( this is done) to be conveyed to him by a special deed (done) agreeable to my bond to him.

The crops cut saw, tenant saw, cart wheel, grindstone and plow, I want Jon Allen to have them , two axes and two horses, also my book cases, Campbells New Testament, Buck-- Dictionary. Said John to have big Bible and Browns Dictionary of the Bible and pit saw.

The surveying instruments had better be kept as they might be of some use to the family if not sell them. There is two sets ( I have sold both sets since) of which one had better be sold they want mending. The Smith tools, some of the family had best keep them at least as long as their mother lives as I wish every thing kept on the plantation that will be of use to her while she lives or during her widowhood.. and my will and difine is, that the lands that I have given to my children, they are not to sell nor dispose of the same until after they are thirty five years of age, and as for my wife I want her to have plenty of anything to support upon as long as she lives, and as the place she lives on will belong to my son Allen, I want him to work it for her support and hiw own.

I want all the children to see thast she is supported as witness my hand and seal this 23d day of July 1834.
 

Jno. Mabrey Sn.

Codical or explaination of my will . It is express will and desire the lands that I have given to my children, that, they are expessly prohibited from selling the same until after they are thirty five years of age, and as to the lands that I have given to my grand children, I wish them restricted in the same way, and for the good of my children and grand children ( as I think) my will desire is that they do not inter marry with any of the Starnes or Curtis families, and if they do, that then and in that case the lands that I have given them (They shall never sell or dispose of in any way, best I leave it to the --- children.

The chart of land that I now live on --
The following is a connection of my land on Little River where everyone may see his part at a view. 1834.
 

Over Little River, and what of it and the 12 acre tract marked C will contain 30 or 40 acres, perhaps I may sell it, if not I want Jon allen to have it. The letters A,B,C, on the foregoing are marked on the patents and on the platts in the connection of my Land in my day book. In which every one may plainly see his part plainly laid down.

And I do hereby declare this to be my last will and testment and I do hereby utterly revoke and disannull all former wills and testaments, by me here to fore made and that this and none other be considered my last will and testment, as witness my hand and seal this 7th day of October 1835.
 

Jno. Mabry Sen. And I would further observe that whereas Children are sometimes displeased and try to overset their fathers will, in which case, if any of my children should enter into a law suit to over set my will, that then in that case, I wish them to have only the half of what I have given them, and the otheer half be divided among the rest of the children.

I wish Elizabeth Mabry (daughter of John Mabry Dec.d) to be bound to some decent person until she is of age and learn to sew and read.

Date above. - Jno. Mabry Sen. I have given Martha Mabry --
60 acres of Land and Peggy Bounds 40 acres already and 60 acres= 100.

I left a copy in substance of the forgoing in the hands of Mr. Spotwood Wilkinson at Cadiz November the 9th, 1844 in order to be recorded after my death.

My wife Died on May 1st, 1841 - It seems hardly worth while to say anything about the provision made for her in this will or any other, and it seems to be useless to record the platts of survey as laid down at page 13 of this book.

On the 1st and 2d day of Nov. 1809 - Jesse Mabry was like to die with a bad swelling on his thigh. We lanced it, and he recovered in a few days. Praised be God.

The fear of the Lord is to hate Evil
Now Whilst In my heart
By this winning word
my conscience can apart
I truly love the Lord
I cannot head the path of sin
I long for the holiness within.

Yes holiness of heart
I would more largely share
I mourn with inward smart
the Evil that are there
I hate my thought because they are vain.
I would every sin abstain.

I hate this wretched pride
These covetous desires
I'd have them crucified
for God my heart requires
Jesus do thou these fo- ----
Make me more sincere and true.

I live alone to thee
I love to obey thy word
Well pleased that thou shared be
my Saviour and my Lord
To thee I now religon my heart
renew it Lord in every part.
