Sussex County, VA [2] |
- His widow Hannah died in 1826 and her son-in-law William H. Cotton was named administrator of her will This proved to be more complicated than anyone had imagined. After Hannah's father, Simon Stacy (1711-1784) died, the named executor of his will died without having completed the execution of the provisions of the will, which provided for an equal distribution of Simon's estate among his 12 children. Through a series of misadventures the case dragged on for 41 years after his death before it was finally resolved by the court in August 1825. The $204.83 remaining in the estate account was divided among the four descendants of Simon Stacy who had not died childless, were missing or had disposed of their claims to the residual estate. Among the four was Sally Parsons, whose husband William H. Cotton seems to have played an active role in getting the matter settled. But the judge placed $ 15 0 of the amount in escrow, in case any of the potential claimants missing or presumed dead should show up later. The last entry for this case in Sussex County court records was in July 1843, 59 years after Simon Stacy's death.
