John Berkley Grimball and Eliza Berkely Wilkins, executors of the estate of the late Eliza Flinn, "are desirous of having the said Estate divided, so that they may hold their shares in Severalty." The petitioners avow that "your Petitioners mother Mrs. Eliza Flinn by her last will and testament devised to your Petitioners the residue of her Estate." They report that "the residue of the Testatrix estate consists of a Plantation called Pinebury," which contains 134 acres of rice land, another 500-acre tract of land, and eighty slaves. The petitioners pray that they be granted "a writ of partition to divide the said Plantation and Negroes among them in moieties."
