    Item- I give to my Daughter Polly Wade, one Negro Girl by the name of Milley & her future increase to her during her natural life & at her death, I give the same to her children.

    Item- I give to my son Bird Nichols one horse, saddle, and bridle one feather bed & furniture, a dish plates knives & forks which he has now in possession.

    Item- I give to my son William Nichols one horse saddle & bridle, which he has possession of.

    Item- my will and desire is that my beloved wife Lucy Nichols shall keep the residue of my estate not already disposed by this my will at her discretion, so long as she lives and at her death my will & desire is that the rest of my children (to wit) Jesse, Mathew, Lucy, Joel, Nancy, Betsy, James & Henry Nichols shall have as great a portion of my estate as the rest of my children which I have already provided for and after they have b?'d there legacy, should there be a balance of my estate left then and in that case, I give and bequeath it to be equally divided among the whole of children named in this my will.

    Will Transcribed by Resa Nichols Hennings

    NOTE: This will was written in beautiful flowing script and the signature is in the same handwriting as the text of the document. I imagine Jesse dictated his wishes to the County Clerk, a common practice in those days. Jesse's will provided for wife, Lucy, to have a life estate. A final accounting of the estate could not be done until after her death--and then it took almost eight years to complete! Regarding the executors Jesse named--Lucy died in May of 1845, Zachary Ford was dead by 19 Aug 1845, and John W. Mann was dead by Nov 1845. John's son, Stephen Mann, became Administrator Debonas Non. Lucy outlived many of her children and her deceased children's inheritances passed on to their children. There are numerous documents in the Circuit Enrollment Book 1843-1856, Smith Co, TN concerning the settlement of Jesse's estate. Suit was filed, apparently, because of a disagreement concerning 222 acres of land, to sort out who the legatees were, and to decide just who was to receive what--it was most confusing.

    Jesse made his will: 27 Nov 1805
    Jesse died: 1805
    Will proved: Jun 1806
    Lucy died: May 1845
    Final Settlement: 3 Feb 1853

    Jesse is the son of John NICHOLS and Mary OWEN. John's will was probated 22 Apr 1774 in Halifax Co, VA. I do not know who John's parents are--he has been a brick wall for years. Mary is the daughter of Richard and Elizabeth OWEN (is Elizabeth actually Sarah Elizabeth "Betty" ROWLAND, as some researchers say?). Richard's will was also probated in Halifax Co, VA--17 Jun 1756. Lucy MANN is the daughter of Robert MANN and Phoebe VADEN. Robert's will was probated in Halifax Co, VA 17 Feb 1780. Jesse NICHOLS and his father-in-law, Robert MANN, are both DAR Patriots.

William NICHOLS settled in the north-east part of the township in 1823. He owned a slave, and in 1826 moved to Missouri. Wm. MARSHLL bought his improvements.

At one time he owned about two thousand acres of land in this vicinity, and for many years filled the office of Justice of the Peace. He died at Alma in 1865."

    Notes from Neal Cash who took the photos:
    "This grave is alone and in Mr Watson's front yard. This is the story he told me. First, he said, the date is wrong and I have the documentation to prove it. Second, he said, the guy joined a local church at age 81. He then was dismissed for "using profane" language. He was so mad at the church that he told folks he would be buried in that field, which at the time was under cultivation, and so he was. The farm was known as the REDD FARM. Mr LeGrand owned property elsewhere in the area, but lived on the Redd Farm. Mr. Watson, doesn't mind the occasional visitor and he keeps the area very nice. Mr Watson has lived his entire life there and his mother called the grave, St Peter's. The grave was not marked. Also she told him that he must have been buried with a walnut in his pocket and that's why the tree."
