Hi TERRENCE O'BRYAN of Cecil County being weak of body but of sound mind and memory to make this my last will and testament and manner following.

As to the estate where with providence has blessed me, my just debts paid, I give as follow with, to wit. A mare that my son JOHN [O'BRYAN] has generally ridden with the colt I gave him. A mare that my son JAMES [O'BRYAN] rides generally I give to him. To my wife I give the third part of the residue of my estate, the other two thirds, exclusive of the particular legacies aforesaid, I desire may be equally divided between my children, excluding grandchildren, and I would recommend to my children so long as they continue, unmarried, to live with their mother, especially so long as she continues a widow, and that they keep what they have together and take their shares as they shall marry, and in case their mother should marry and any disagreement happen between them, then that in this case they take their several dividends and if they think proper so to do. And lastly I make my wife my executrix here by revoking all former wills. And testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and affixed my seal this 30th day of March 1745.
