Will Book 1
1795 - 1823
Pages
17 - 32 are missing from the microfilmed copy of Franklin County Will Book
1, located at the Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives. This is
old Mormon film
from
the early 1960's. The date these pages disappeared from Will Book 1
is unknown. However, an undated, typed compilation of Franklin County
Will Abstracts is available at
the
Kentucky Historical Society Library and abstracts for pages 17 - 32 are included.
There is no way of knowing when the abstracts where compiled.
However, it is estimated
sometime
in the mid to late 1940's. A photo copy of this will has come into
my hands today [2010]. I have no idea when or how it was
obtained.
