GEORGE HEALE'S WILL----DEC 30,1697.

I bequeath to my son George 1300 acres on which I live, described as
being on the S.E. side of the main road from Mrs. Ball's Mill, to a Mill
which was formerly Josias Draper's, & between that road & Thomas Davis's.
The remaining part of that land, on the N.W. side of the road & along the
White Marsh to Timothy Stamps, containing 500 acres, I give to my son
John. My lands in the head of the Corrotoman, adjoining the lands of
Guiles Robinson & Randolph Miller & land formerly belonging to Nathanial
Brown, which includes 400 acres, U give to my son Joseph. I give my
daughter Ellen, the 100 acres at Cherry Point, adjoining Mr. Keen & Mr.
Crawley. The property at Corrotoman, 350 acres adjoining William Clark,
Mathew White, Mr. Armes, Mr. Harrison, & the main road, I give to mt
daughters, Elizabet, & Sarah. The quarter plantation in the forest at the
head of the Corrotoman, except that part already bequeated to Joseph, I
give to my son George for the use of my son Nicholas.

Money is also left for a brick wall to be erected around the Heale family
burial plot on the plantation at the head of the Corrotoman River, & a
suitable stone is to be brought from England. The burial vaults were
quite massive; a single large granite slab resting on carved
foundations--according to one observer. (From Lancaster Co. Va. Order
Book I).
