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. If Betty was the mother of Peter's elder children, not only, is it reasonable, one of them would administer "their mother's" estate, but also logical, Betty's estate would be distributed among Peter's eleven children. There is a clear delineation between the guardianship of Peter's "four small children", overseen by Adam Short and the admi...

Parker Truitt of Jefferson Township, Adams, Ohio

No reliable research exists for Parker Truitt. Future research seeks to remedy this problem and contribute new information to the knowledge pool. Registration of births, deaths and marriages were not compulsory during Parker Truitt’s lifetime. No known church or Bible record names Parker’s parents, his spouse or descendants. Parker penned his last will and testament before July 1844 when the Court granted Samuel S Mason, letters testamentary. 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. According to an inscription on the headstone for Parker Truitt in Copas Cemetery, Blue Creek, Adams, Ohio, he died on 7 June 1844 in the 81st year of his age. The headstone for his wife Rhoda shows she predeceased him by sixteen years, age sixty-five. However, according to research of the 1990s, Copas Cemetery, Blue Creek, Adams, Ohio did not exist in the 1840s...
