Here is what is believed to be his will:627
Will of Theodoric Webb
Wills, Vol. 1
Proven May Term-1851.......................U. T. Library, Page 469
Will of Theodoric Webb
State of Tennessee, Hawkins Co.
I, Theodoric Webb, do make public this my last will and testament, thereby revoking and making void all other wills made by me at any time.
First, I direct that my funeral expenses be paid as soon after my death as possible, out of moneys that I may die possessed of or may come into the hands of executors.
Secondly, I give and bequeath to my three children that is under age, (to wit) Theadore, Henry, and Catherine as much property as will make them equal with those that are of age.
Thirdly, I give and bequeath to my wife, Catherine, all the rest of my property real and personal during her lifetime or widowhood, (to wit) my plantation and plantation utensils and all my stock of every kind, household and kitchen furniture etc.
Fourthly, I give and bequeath at the death or marriage of my wife, Catherine all the property that remains, both real and personal to my children (to wit) John Webb, Elijah Webb, Patsy Price, Susannah Price, Lucinda Shanks, Samuel Webb, Gabrel Webb, David Webb, and the above minors (to wit) Theadore, Henry, and Catherine, their heirs or assigns forever to be divided equally among them.
Fifthly, I give and bequeath to my daughter, Polly, one dollar, no more.
Lastly, I do appoint John Webb and Elijah Webb my executors.
In witness thereof I do this my will, set my hand and seal this 28th day of December, 1850.
..........................................Theodoric Webb (SEAL)
Signed, Sealed and delivered in the presence of
................................R. D. Young
............................Willie R. Kenner
There is another version of this same will that has a fair amount of differences (starting with the page number and the year it was proven).632 They both contain the same basic story and I think this one is probably a better representation.
