Philip Crume’s estate was not settled for several years. On 8 February 1808 Jacob Marks, who had married Philip’s widow Anna in 1804, persuaded the court to order that John Batsel, Henry Cotton, Thomas Linthicum and James Nall perform “the charges entrusted to them” by assigning to “Hannah Crume,” widow of Philip Crume, her dower in his lands, slaves and personal estate.33 Philip’s land in Nelson County was surveyed and found to contain 340 acres. On 29 February 1808 the land was divided and the widow Anna was assigned the part including the home.34 In April 1808 proceeds from the sale of estate property were used to pay the widow’s dower and other expenses due the estate.35 On 17 April 1815, Philip Crume, Jr., was named administrator.36 Finally, on 17 July 1815, the inventory was filed.37 By the time the slaves were divided among Philip’s heirs in 1819, the slave Reubin had apparently died and three more had grown up. The male slaves Harry, Bill, Jack, Harris and Isaac were assigned to Philip’s children Margaret (“Pegga”), John, Kezia, Squire and Nancy, respectively.
