Will, NC, Anson, Jasper Turner 1828

In the name of God, Amen.

I JASPER TURNER of the county of Anson and State of North Carolina being in sound
mind and memory do make this to be my last will and testament.

In the first place I want all my just debts paid and those due me collected.

First I give and bequeath unto my wife LUCY TURNER my plantation and tract of land
whereon I now live containing three hundred and fourteen acres, more or less. Also
I give and bequeath unto my wife Lucy a Negro man by the name of TOM her lifetime.
And then to my three daughters (to wit): [DELILAH] DILLY [TURNER], ELIZABETH
[TURNER], and POLLY TURNER. Also I want, at the death of my wife, LUCY TURNER, the
said tract of land that I have willed to her to be equally divided among all my
legatees. Also I give to my wife all my stock of every description, but if she and
the family thinks proper to sell part of, then they can do so. Also my wagon and
cart and plantation tools to my said wife LUCY. Also I wish at her death I want
some of my neighbors to value these things last named and make a division of them
among my children without a sale. But if the said LUCY TURNER marries, I want for
her to have an equal part with my children and no more.

Now this stock that I have mentioned about to be sold the money arising from that
sale I want it to be put to the use of educating my son MARTIN TURNER but if there
should be more money from this sale of stock than is necessary to educate my son
MARTIN I want the rest to be equally divided among the rest of my children.

Also I give and bequeath to my son GREEN TURNER a certain tract of land adjoining
JEPHTHAH WOODARD and WILLIAM HATCHER containing 200 acres more or less.

In the next place I give unto my son AUSBURN TURNER a certain tract of land that I
purchased of JOHN [LEAGY Legg] and MATHEW LEAGY adjoining FREDRICK PLATON and JOHN
ALLEN containing 250 acres, more or less, lying on the waters of Cribb Creek.

Also I give to my son MARTIN TURNER a certain parcel or tract of land lying on the
waters of Arnets Branch containing 199 acres.

Also another tract of land bought of JOSEPH WILLOUGHBY goes by the name of the
HARRISON’s Place containing 100 acres, more or less.

Also a small entry that I have made adjoining JOHN ALLEN, FREDRICK PLATON and
myself, which I wish to be paid with money out of my estate and for the land to
belong to my son MARTIN containing 8 acres.

As for my household and kitchen furniture I want for it to stay as it is but if on
or more of the family wishes or needs part of the furniture for the family to give
off what they think is their equal part.
