Shared Photo: Susannah (Adams) Ware Will

Question

This will shows the actual names of the heirs of Susannah (Adams) Ware, widow of Rev. Jacob Ware.  An error was made in copying the name of Elizth: Oglesby, and a great number of people have copied from the book, instead of the will itself.  Here is proof there was no Elizabeth Coraby Oglesby in the will.  The microfilm at the Virginia State Library was very clear when I copied it.  The LDS copy was badly scratched and illegible when I tried to read it.  That was a number of years ago, so the films may be very different now, after 35 years of use.

Answer 1

I had to enlarge the will to read what you were saying, but you are right. These was no Elizabeth Coraby Oglesby in the will. I am glad that you now have proof of that.

Thank you for sharing.
