Joseph's will was written 26 November 1850 in Mason County, Kentucky and entered into probate on 13 September 1852. For a complete transcript, please click here. He named seven of his eight children in the will. Frances was not included. According to the transcription of his Bible record, above, his daughter Frances was married to Benjamin Williams. We also know from the Bible record that she died before Joseph did. Sophia, Prudence and Harriet also died before their father, however, they did leave heirs who were mentioned in the will. If Frances left any heirs, it's doubtful they survived since Joseph provided for all of his descendants in his will.
