I, Joseph Morton of C, being in perfect mind and memory TO my wife Agnes -during her natural life, the plantation whereon I now live, and that part of my tract of land adjoining the said plantation, which is above Little Roanoke. I also lend my wife, during her life, slaves named Annick, her 4 youngest children, Gloucester, Harry, Cooper, Gill, Chloe and her 3 children, Phillis, James, Nancy, and Darcus. I also lend my wife all my stock, and all my household furniture. My wife may give any of the slaves (except those mentioned below), stock, and plantation utensils to any of my children, after her death, but such gift must be confirmed by my executors.
To my daughter Judith -the slaves she has now in
possession, to wit, Frank and the children of a Negro wench named Matt and a girl named Bett. Also, after the death of my wife, Negroes Darcas and Phillis, with their increase.
To my daughter Mary Price -the Negroes she has now in possession, to wit, Docea and her children that she has with her. Also a Negro girl named Joan and a boy named Charles.
To my son Josiah Morton -2 Negroes he has now in
possession. Also, at the death of my wife, a Negro woman named Chloe with her 2 children.
To my son William Morton -my plantation on Staunton River with a certain parcel of land which is bounded by the mouth of Wallace Cr, the mouth above the plantation near a fish trap. Also the following Negroes, to wit, Tom, Ben, Suke, York, Little Will, and Old Will.
To my daughter Agnes -the 3 Negroes she has now in possession, namely Nancy, Richard, and Sarah, together with a Negro woman named Pegg and a boy named Hampton.
In the lifetime of John Carter, I gave to my daughter, Jane Carter, a Negro named Dilsy and her children. Also a Negro named Bobb, which Negroes John Cater [sic], at his death, devised to his wife and children. I confirm the same to the several persons to whom the Negroes were given by John Carter.
To my daughter Jeane -2 Negroes, to wit, Peter and Harry, a boy, during her natural life, and at her death to be given by Jane to her children, the gift to be confirmed by my executors.
To my daughter Elizabeth -the Negroes now in her possession, namely Amey and her children, and Lidia, and a Negro man named James and a girl named Nancy and Little Dilsey.

To Ann Morton -1 feather bed & furniture, 2 cows and calves.
I also desire that my brother Stephen may be maintained by all my children during his life. I wish no division to be made in the slaves until next November.
