Peter Truitt: An Analysis of his will made 4 January 1790, Sussex, Delaware

The words, my four small children" and the statement "my desire that they may divide peaceably and quietly and have no disputes" suggests Peter's widow, Betty, may be his second or third wife. Direct evidence supporting this assertion is found in the probate case file, opened for Betty Truitt, February 1796, when Adam Short paid an administration bond on her estate, inventoried her personal property, and distributed the proceeds of her estate to her heirs, John, Charlotte, Lovey and Leah (deceased). Peter Truitt's seven adult children did not share in the proceeds of Betty's estate.

Parker Truitt of Jefferson Township, Adams, Ohio

The records that would have been created in the administration of Parker’s estate, showing his legal heirs and representatives, do not appear to have survived the courthouse fire of 1910.

However, according to research of the 1990s, Copas Cemetery, Blue Creek, Adams, Ohio did not exist in the 1840s...

Court records verify the identity of Riley Truitt's wife

https://familylocket.com/genealogy-research-is-still-hard/ Nicole Elder Dyer, "Genealogy Research in the 21st Century Part I: Genealogy Research is Still Hard", 20 March 2020. Before the mass digitisation of extant records, Ruth Dryden's Research Notes for Worcester County, Maryland, asserts, without evidence, Riley Truitt's wife was Margaret Newbold - "Invent. of Riley Truitt 1770 Worc. Co. filed by Mrs Margaret Newbold Truitt adm. and John and Thomas Newbold". Multiple trees across multiple platforms cite this research. Are these multiple trees "victims of the the random search-and-click hunting encouraged by the slot-machine effect." ? An image of James Truitt's will made October 1770 Worcester, Maryland and recorded 1775 in Sussex, Delaware, which contains a trove of information , is available on Ancestry. The will verifies the identity of Riley Truitt's wife, Maja: "I give and bequeath to my grandson James Truitt son of Ryley T...
