Will Abstract

Winifred Smith's will was written March 31, 1842 and proved May 23, 1842. Winifred died at nearly 80 years of age. She was likely laid to rest next to her husband, Jacob. Her will was probated in Page County on 23 May 1842; her sons, Gabriel and William, were named executors. Her will directed that: her niece (actually her granddaughter) Elizabeth Pence receive one feather bed, one chaff tick, and one woolen blanket; her niece, Irene Goodwin (again, this was her granddaughter) receive the same; the legal heirs of her three children, James Smith, Polly Pence and Benjamin Smith divide $50.00 equally among themselves; son Gabriel receive a wagon; and sons Gabriel and William divide the residue of her estate.
