The children of the late Benjamin Williams state that "their father died possessed of sundry slaves." They inform the court that they have "applied" to the defendants "to cause a division of the sd slaves to be made between your Complainants & the sd Mary Williams." They seek the court's assistance in equally dividing the thirty-one slaves among the rightful heirs.
Result: Granted.
Or you may view all people.
