IXTEODUCTIOX. 


The  increasing  interest  of  the  public  in  the  old  wills  filed 
in  the  office  of  the  Secretary  of  State  has  caused  the  Trustees 
of  the  Public  Libraries  to  authorize  the  Secretary  of  State  to 
prepare  the  within  publication.  An  abstract  of  every  will 
found  in  the  office  of  the  Secretary  of  State  is  published 
herein.  These  abstracts  show  the  name  of  the  testator,  place 
of  residence,  names  of  wife,  children,  legatees,  witnesses, 
probate  officer,  etc. ;  also,  names  of  plantations  mentioned  and 
remarkable  items  or  noteworthy  passages  in  wills. 

The  first  record  I  have  been  able  to  find  providing  for  the 
keeping  of  wills  in  the  office  of  the  Secretary  of  State  is  the 
following  order : 

Order'd  that  a  Commission  be  DelivfvVt  to  ye  Honble  Majr  Sarawl

The  original  of  this  paper  was  found  l\y  the  late  J.  R.  B. 
Hathaway  in  the  courthouse  at  Edeuton.^  This  order  is 
without  date,  but  was  issued  about  1700,  as  Samuel  Swann 
was  Secretary  of  State  in  that  year  and  the  first  of  his 
records  are  dated  at  that  time. 

The  next  legislation  I  find  in  reference  to  wills  is  an  act 
of  the  General  Assembly  of  1715,  chapter  48,  the  caption 
and  first  three  sections  of  which  are  as  follows: 

AN  ACT  CONCERNING  PROVEING  WILLS  AND  GRANTING  LET- 
TERS OF  ADMINISTRATION  AND  TO  PREVENT  FRAL'DES 
IN  THE  MANAGEMENT  OF  INTESTATES  ESTATES. 

I.  Be  It  Enacted  by  his  Excellency  the  Pallatine  &  and  the  rest  of 
the  Ti'ue  &  Absolute  Lords  Proprietors  of  the  Province  of  Carolina 
by  &  with  the  advice  &  consent  of  the  rest  of  the  Members  of  the 
General  Assembly  now  met  at  Little  River  for  the  No.  East  part  of 
the  province  &  by  the  Authority  of  the  same. 

II.  It  is  Hereby  Enacted  &  declared  that  all  Wills  &  Administra- 
tions heretofore  proved  &  granted  by  the  Council,  General  Court, 
Precinct  Court  or  by  powers  or  Commission  heretofore  granted  by 
any  Governor.  Deputy  Governor,  President  &  Council  to  any  particular 
person  or  persons  shall  be  deemed  adjudged  &  taken  to  be  good  & 
effectual  to  all  Intents  &  Purposes  whatsoever  as  if  proved  before  Or 
granted  by  any  Ordinary  or  other  Ecclesiastical  Judge  or  person. 

III.  And  Be  It  Further  Enacted  by  the  Authority  afors'd  that  it 
shall  &  may  lx»  lawfull  for  the  Governor  or  Commander  in  Chief  for 
the  time  being  the  Grcneral  Court  or  Precinct  Court  to  have  Wills 
proved  before  them  and  Grant  Orders  for  Admiiustration.  Provided 
the  same  be  not  repugnant  to  the  Rules  &  Methods  prescribed  in 
this  Act  And  Provided  that  the  Granting  Letters  Testamentary  or 
Letters  of  Administration  allways  Excepted  which  shall  be  allways 
from  &  after  the  Ratification  of  this  Act  signed  by  the  Governor  or 
Commander  in  Chief  for  the  time  being  and  sealed  with  the  Colony 
seale  &  only  Issuing  out  of  the  Secretary's  Office  &  Counter  signed 
by  the  Secretary  or  Deputy.  **»**»** 

This  act  validates  probates  up  to  that  time,  confirms  let- 
ters of  administration  previously  granted  and  provides  for 
the  better  regulation  of  these  matters.

IxTEODUCTION. 


In  l72o  a  law-  was  enacted  more  riniilly  enforcing  the 
making  and  tiling  of  inventories.  Ijoth  tlie  acts  of  1715  and 
of  1723  were  brought  forward  and  confirmed  in  1749. 

During  Governor  Dolibs'  administration,  in  1760,  acts 
were  passed"  "to  establish  Inferior  Courts  of  Pleas  and 
Quarter  Sessions  in  the  several  counties  in  this  Province," 
and"  "for  establishing  Superior  Courts  of  Pleas  and  Grand 
Sessions  and  regulating  the  i>roceedings  therein."  These 
acts  provided  for  the  filing  and  recording  of  wills  in  the 
clerk's  office,  which  is  still  the  law. 

In  an  act  of  the  General  Assembly  of  1751,  ch.  6,  sec.  8,' 
it  was  recited  that  "many  original  wills,  patents  and  deeds 
have  been  lost  fi:ir  want  of  convenient  offices  to  keep  the 
same."  The  various  migrations  of  our  capital  since  that 
date  have  undoulitedly  added  to  these  losses. 

iMany  of  the  wills  here  are  in  bad  order,  decaye<l.  foxed 
and  faded,  and  some  of  them  are  illegible.  Where  there  is 
doubt  as  to  cori'cct  recording  of  a  will  it  is  so  stated  or 
queried.  The  earliest  will  found  is  that  of  Mary  Fortseu, 
which  was  made  in  1663,  but  there  are  not  many  before 
1690.  There  are  a  few  wills  filed  here  since  1760  which 
have  been  included  in  the  abstract  list.  Occasionally  it  is 
found  that  a  testator  who  was  known  to  lie  an  educated  per- 
son signed  his  will  by  making  his  mark,  so  it  is  not  always 
an  evidence  of  illiteracy  when  the  will  is  signed  by  a  mark, 
nor  is  the  signature  to  the  will  generally  a  satisfactory  signa- 
ture of  the  testator,  as  often  he  was  sick,  weak  or  infirm  in 
body  at  the  time  of  signing  the  will.  The  original  spelling 
has  been  preserved  in  making  abstracts  of  wills  and  the  same 
name  is  often  found  spelled  in  several  dift'erent  ways.  It 
will  be  observed  that  the  terms  "father-in-law"  or  "mother-iu- 
law"  often  mean  stepfather  or  stepmother;  sometimes  they

are  referred  to  as  "father"  or  ''mother.''  The  term  "cousin" 
will  be  frequently  found  to  mean  nephew  or  niece. 

It  is  interesting  to  note  that  in  wills  jirior  to  1752,  two 
years  are  generally  named  for  dates  in  the  months  of  Janu- 
ary, Febi'uary  and  March;  for  instance,  January  20,  1718-9; 
but  this  was  not  always  the  case,  and  occasionally  only  one 
year  is  given.    As  examples,  see  wills  of 

Cathekike  Busbey^  made  January  22,  1738-9.  Proved 
February  Court,  1738. 

Thomas  Barclift,  made  ISTovember  14,  1750.  Proved 
at  January  Court,  1750. 

J^iCHOLAS  Blackman,  made  August  26,  1730.  Probated 
March  11,  1730. 

On  the  continent  and  in  Scotland  the  Gregorian  Calendar 
was  in  use,  but  it  was  not  adopted  in  England  until  1751, 
when  Parliament  passed  "An  Act  for  Regulating  the  Com- 
mencement of  the  Year,  and  for  Correcting  the  Calendar 
now  in  use."  This  act  provided  that  the  year  begin  on  the 
first  day  of  January,  1752,  and  not  on  the  twenty-fifth  of 
March,  as  was  then  the  usage.  The  same  act  provided  that 
eleven  days  be  omitted  in  September,  1752,°  "and  that  the 
natural  Day  next  immediately  following  the  said  second  Day 
of  September,  shall  be  called,  reckoned  and  accounted  to  be 
the  fourteenth  Day  of  September,  omitting  for  that  Time 
only  the  eleven  intermediate  nominal  Days  of  the  common 
Calendar,  and  that  the  several  natural  Days  which  shall 
follow  and  succeed  next  after  the  said  fourteenth  Day  of 
September  shall  be  respectively  called,  reckoned  and  num- 
bered forwards  in  numerical  Order  from  the  said  fourteenth 
Day  of  September,  according  to  the  Order  and  Siiccession  of 
Days  now  used  in  the  Present  Calendar."  If  this  is  kept  in 
mind,  it  will  reconcile  many  apparently  contradictory  dates. 

The  abstracts  were  prepared  by  Messrs.  Wm.  H.  Sawyer 

'Statutes  at  Large,  Vol.  VII,  1747-1756;  24  Geo.  II.,  C.  23,  A.  D.  1751.  and  as  amended 
by  25  Geo.  II.,  C.  30  A.  D.  1752.

Batcheloe  and  Joseph  E.  Sawyer,  and  the  index  matle  by 
Mr.  W.  P.  Batchelok.  To  these  gentlemen  I  desire  to 
make  acknowledgment  for  their  faithfid  service. 

It  is  expected  that  this  work  will  be  interesting  and  helpful 
in  genealogical  research  and  especially  valuable  as  illustra- 
tive of  the  domestic  history  of  our  people.  It  will  also  be 
found  useful  in  tracing  titles  to  properties.

business  (I  could  wish  the  one  to  ye  Law,  the  other  to  Mei'chandize),  in 
which  let  them  follow  their  own  inclinations.  I  will  that  my  daughter  be 
taught  to  write  and  read  and  some  feminine  accomplishments  which  may 
render  her  agreeable;  and  that  she  be  not  kept  ignorant  of  what  appertains 
to  a  good  housewife  in  the  management  of  household  affairs.  Item:  I  give

that  a  brick  Vault  may  be  built  at  Groveley  and  my  Dear  Wife's  body  taken
