Sons, Charles, Raleigh and John and friend Rawleigh Chinn, Sr. are named as executors. Wit: John French, Daniel French, Ralph Murry. (p. 125)

    [ * cos1776 notes: There are some mistakes in this abstract that do not match up with a transcript of the complete will (see person page for Charles Chinn}. In the transcript, daughter "Sukey" was spelled "Suckey" ; daughter Mary (Chinn) Reno was named as "my daughter Mary Reno" and her husband was named as "Zila Reno" ; and, I am not sure why daughter Betty is listed twice.]
