      Frances O'DANIEL GLADIN's will in Fairfax County Will Book B-1, pages 180-181 and 239-240. This copy is from a transcription. There are numerous odd spellings in it. No witnesses were listed. Surnames were capitalized for this use.
      "IN THE NAME OF GOD AMEN this sixth day Feruary in year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and fifty five I Frances GLADIN of ye Parris of Truro and County of Fairfax being very sick and week in body but of perfeck mind and memory and ordain this my last will and Testament

      Imprimus I give and bequeath to my son James DANNELL a feather Bed and furniture my chest and table too dishes and four plaits Young heffer if any cost or truble should happen everyone of my heirs shall bare an eqill charge acordin to chares portion.

      I give and bequeath to my Dafter Ann Jones all my wearing cloughs to my William DANNELL I give and Bequeath a Negero man Joe.
      I give and Bequeath to my Dafter Catheran a Tronk and a butter Pot one Earthen dish to earthen plats.

      I give and Bequeath to my son John O DANNELL Anthony EVARY UOLL and all the remainder of my Estate to him and his hares for Likwise I constitute ordain and make John O DANNELL to be my sole Executer and acknowledge this to be my last Will and Testament in Witness whareof I have hereunto set my hand and seale the day and year above written.
      Frances{her mark} GLADEN."
      John O'DANIEL presented Frances' will in court on 21 March 1758.
      Her bequeath to her son James DANNELL appears to be her effort to replace household goods that he was required to sell by the court to sell as the result of a lawsuit by William PAYNE, Jr. in January 1755.
      Frances did not list any land in her will. William had six children, and apparently gave each 100 acres in his will. James sold 100 acres to Reverend Charles GREEN of Truro Parish. Katherine and Elizabeth and their husbands sold 200 acres to Francis SUMMERS. No record of the other 400 acres has been uncovered. It would seem likely that each of William's children received 100 acres, but what happened to the last 100 acre plot? Frances may have received it and it may have been disposed of by her second husband, John GLADIN.
