I, John Lock, serv. of Clarke County, VA do hereby declare and make known the following as my last will and testament. I will my riding horse and saddle and my desk which contains my papers to my son John M Lock. I will to my daughter Ann Rebecca Watson the saddle which belonged to her mother. I will to each of my children and to my granddaughter Sally R Watson our feather bed and bedding of equal value. I will my watch to my grandson Fitzhugh Lee, son of John M Locke. I will to my grandson James Ryan a mahogany bed stand, now in possession of his father Josiah R Lock. If the residue of my personal property shall not be sufficient to pay all my debts, all my land shall be rented to my executors until my debts are paid. After the payment of my debts, my land shall be divided as follow: I will to Samuel Huyett in trust nevertheless for the separate use and benefit of my daughter, Marie J Gruber, all my right, title, and interest in the farm purchased jointly by myself and John Gruber of Watson, which farm is now in possession of said John Gruber and contains one hundred and fifty-five and a half acres of land, but said trustee shall not have possession or control of said land until John Gruber shall pay to my executors all debts due by him to me or my estate due by note, account, or for rent, nor until shall said trustee Samuel Huyett shall pay to A. M. Moore in trust for the use of the family of my son Josiah R Lock, the sum of one hundred fifty two dollars and fifty cents. At the death of Marie, this trust shall cease, and the property shall be divided among her children, I will to A. M. Moore in trust nevertheless for the support and maintenance of the family of my son Josiah R Lock. Thirty five acres of cleared land, to be laid off as follows: Beginning on the west side of the lane opposite the stone fence which is between my orchard and the land purchased jointly by Mr. and Mrs. John Gruber of Watson and running to Pidgeon's line so as to not interfere in any manner with the spring near my house and so as to lay off thirty-five acres adjoining the farm owned by Josiah, also fifteen acres of Woodland to be laid off adjoining Josiah's farm making fifty acres, and in addition the sum of one hundred and ninty-two dollars and fifty cents to be paid said. A. M. Moore Trustee as aforesaid by Samuel Huyett trustee for Maria. These shall be paid to said A. M. Moore for the purposes of this trust, the sum of three hundred and twenty seven dollars and fifty cents out of the residue of my land, as follows: the land willed or bequeathed to A. M. Moore Trustee for the family of John M Lock shall be charged with one-fourth part thereof, that bequeathed to Remington with a fourth part, that Celina E Watson, and that to Ann Rebecca Watson each a fourth part, and A. M. Moore, trustee for Josiah's family may allow said family to occupy and cultivate the land hereby bequeathed to him in trust for their use and benefit if it shall appear to be to their advantage to do so. But the fifty acres of land and the five hundred and twenty-five dollars of this trust are hereby bound and held liable for any debt due to me by Josiah and for the payment of any debt or obligation for which I am bound for him as security. At the death of Josiah, this trust shall cease and the property shall be divided among his children, I will one-fourth part of the residue of my land to A. M. Moore in trust nevertheless for the support and maintenance of the family of my son, John M Lock, it should be laid off adjoining the land set apart for the benefit of Josiah's family and the land of Samuel Pidgeon and shall include the orchard and the house in which I live for the cleared land. The woodland shall be laid off adjoining the woodland bequeathed to A. M. Moore in trust for Josiah's family. The right of way from the house to the woodland shall remain as it now is for the benefit of this Trust and John's family may occupy and cultivate the land if they desire to do so. At John's death, this Trust shall cease and the property shall be divided among his children. The residue of my land shall be divided into three equal parts, one of which parts shall be assigned to my daughter Celina E Watson, one part to my daughter Ann Rebecca Watson and one part to my son Remington. These divisions including that to A. M. Moore in Trust for John's family shall be made with regard to quality as well as quantity, it is my will that the family burying ground shall not be included in the division of my land. I therefore will to my sons John M and Remington one fourth of an acre of land containing the burying ground in trust for the purposes of a family burying ground. And whereas as the title is for a portion of the land now in my possession will at my death descend to my children from their mother and whereas said land is by this will bequeathed to A. M. Moore in trust for purposes herein mentioned. Be it therefore known that if any one or more of my children shall refuse to execute a deed of relinquishment of all right, title and claim to said land in such manner and form as will effectually and completely carry out and confirm all the purposes, conditions and liabilities of the trusts herein created, he she or they so refusing shall not have any part of my estate but that part of my estate herein bequeathed to such child, children or Trustee for such child, I will to A. M. Moore in trust nevertheless for the support and maintenance of the family of Josiah R Lock, subject to all the terms and conditions arranged to the trust in the former part of this will for the benefit of his family. I contribute and appoint my son John M Lock and A. M. Moore executors of this will,

In testimony where I hereunto set my hand and seal, this 23 of November 1874.
