    both real and personal. In his will, he said, "I will and bequeath to my wife
    Lucinda for the love and affection I have for Her all the property I have both
    real and personal during her life time, if she remained single, but if she
    marries to have no more than one child's part." Also he wanted his land to be
    divided equally among his children at his wife's death with a share going to
    the children of his deceased daughter, Elizabeth Mayes.
