Notes |
- Have not found absolute proof that this John is the father of Adair
County, Kentucky Ingrams that were also of Culpeper County, VA.
There is good circumstantial evidence that is plausible. Only concern
is distances between Culpeper and Brunswick county Ingram families.
This John Ingram (of Brunswick, VA) died before his father, and
appoints his father to be guardian of his children. His father (John
Ingram) died 3 years later (In Brunswick) and names his grand-son
Jeremiah Ingram in the will.
In the name of God Amen I John INGRAM of the County of Brunswick and Parrish of
Meherrin being Sick & Weak of Body but of sound and Perfect Memory thanks to

of my Sins through the merits of the blessed redeemer Jesus Christ, my Body I leave to be

I give and Bequeath to my loving Wife Elizabeth the house and plantation I now live on with
my Negro Jack, during her life and after her Decease the Plantation I now live on containing
one hundred and ten Acres more or less.
I Give and bequeath to my Son Benjamin to him and his heirs for ever
Item I leave and Bequeath all the Remainder of my Estate with the increase of what Negroes
