Executors: son Oliver, brother Edward, and Isaac Campbell.
Witnesses: Zephaniah Turner, Hezekiah Turner and Charles
King.
Justinian's will was proved Feb. 23, 1760 by the witnesses
in the presence of Oliver Burch the heir at law who did not
object to the same.

Comment: When son Oliver was called "heir at law" at the
will probate in Feb. 1760, it means that he was the eldest
living son of Justinian. It is rather odd that, despite
the great particularity of his will, Justinian then proceeds
in the dozen or so records below to dispose by deed of the
very property covered by his will. Sometimes these
transactions are deeds of gift and sometimes they are sales.

of the Prerogative Court of Maryland, 1755-1760," Page 102.
Comment: Harry W. Newman's abstract of Justinian's
inventory in the Newman Collection at the Southern Maryland
Studies Center shows the appraisers as Marsham Queen and Samuel Turner, showing Justinian Cooksey, Jr. only as a
creditor. Newman shows the same 4 executors as Skinner.
Justinian's Oct. 1758 will named only 3 executors: Isaac
Campbell, Oliver Burch and Edward Burch. Isaac Campbell
was the minister at Trinity Parish Church, Charles Co.

Comment: Note the long delay between Justinian's death
and inventory (1760) and his administration account in 1767.
Justinian's brother Edward Burch (one of the executors) is
not shown in Justinian's administration account because he
died in 1765. There is no Balance Book record for Justinian.
