John Patterson (61) left a 1770 will and probate records, presented in Chalkley's Chronicles

From Chalkley's Augusta County Records:

Page 305.--17th March, 1770. John Patterson's will--To wife Jane; to grandson John Patterson, son of son Robert; to son John; to son William; to son James; to son Robert; to daughters Agness, Rebecca, Elizabeth. Teste: George Taylor, John Wiley. Proved, 28th March, 1770, by the witnesses. 19th June, 1770, Jane Patterson is granted administration and qualifies (mark), with Thos. Patterson, John Allison. Page 377.--20th March, 1771. John Patterson's appraisement (by George Eliot, James Gambel, John Hall) recorded.

The will identifies his wife as Jane and his children as:

Robert
John
William
James
Agness
Rebecca
Elizabeth

Since he does not identify daughters Jennett (Person:Janet Patterson (3)) and Person:Mary Patterson (55), it is presumed that the following probate record that John (67) neglected to mention Mary and Jennet, given their disabilities identified (later) in the probate record.

Vol. 1 - AUGUST 23, 1773. - (199) Joseph Bell appointed guardian of Jennett Patterson, daughter of John Patterson, decd. (she is an idiot.) John Patterson appointed guardian of Mary Patterson, daughter of John Patterson, decd. (she is deaf and dumb).
  • Mary and Janet/Jennet were NOT mentioned in the 1770 will of their father, John Patterson (61) presumably because they were still in the care of their mother Jane. They were however, mentioned in the 1772 will of their mother Jane when she states. "Also I give to my daughter Mary her bed to be with her where she goes to live." Following all of the family bequests, Jane adds..."and the remainder of my estate I allow to my daughters Mary and Janet to be equally divided between or amongst them by my son James Patterson & son-in-law Thomas Dixon according to the best of their knowledge."
