Description
Court appointed Commissioners Fielding Cockrill, Andrew Tribble and Robert F. Mason report the inability to divide the value of the slaves equally amongst the heirs. "We appraise Dangerfield an old man worth nothing; Rhoda a woman worth $600; Sally a girl $350; Harriett a girl $300; Ann a girl $200, the whole amount is $1450.00." They allocate Rhoda and her child Ann to George B. Southard. Sally valued at $350 is allocated to Marion Todd. Harriett at $300 is allocated to John G. Sutton. The Probate Court approves the report.Date(s) of Creation
