State of Florida In The name
Alachua County of God, Amen,
I Daniel Conyers, of said State and
County; being of advanced age &
Knowing That I must shortly depart
from this world, deem it right and
proper, both as it respects myself and
my family, That I should make a dispos-
ition of the property with which, a Kind
Providence has blessed me; I therefore
make This my last will and testament
hereby revoking and annulling all other
heretofore made by me;
Item first; I desire and direct That my
body be buried, in a decent and christian
like maner, suitable to my circumstances
and condition. My Soul I trust shall
return to rest with God, who gave it, as I
hope for eternal salvation, through the
blessed Lord & Savior Jesus Christ, whose
Religion I have professed, and as I humbly
hope and trust, Enjoyed for Twenty seven
years.
Item Second; I desire and direct That
all of my just debts be paid without
delay by my Executors hereinafter named
as I am unwilling my executors shall be
delyayed of their rights especially as
There is no necessity for delay
Item Third; After my debts are paid
I give and devise to my Daughters
Mary A. Richmond and Asenett Conyers
The balance of my estate to be equally
divided between Them, as soon as practicable
Item Fourth; I constitute and appoint
my worthy friend Andrew Bates Executor
to this my last Will and testament,
This April 22nd 1856
Daniel Conyers (L.S.) |
