John Rumbold Estate Settlement

 
Submitted by Sandra L Willis

The following are my transcriptions of some pieces of the original documents dealing with the settlement of JOHN RUMBOLD's Estate. I do not know the citations where they are actually recorded, but the back of one of them states that the piece that I have is a true copy of the original on file. Each of these scraps have survived because they have document stamps on them and my Grandfather L. Roy Willis Sr. was a stamp collector. However, it may have been him who got rid of the rest of the document because it did not have a stamp on it. Of that I will never know the true story but will transcribe these bits as best as I can because they all contain information that helps to piece together the heirs of John Rumbold.
