Currituck County Wills
In the name of God Amen.
I Aaron FLORA of the County of Currituck and State of North Carolina, being very sick and weak of body, but of a sound mind and disposing memory, thanks be given unto God, calling unto mind the mortality of my body, and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die, do make and ordain this my Last Will and Testament, that is to say principally and first of all I give and recommend my soul into the hands of Almighty God that give it, and my body I recommend to the earth to be burried in a decent christian burial at the discretion of my executors, nothing doubting but at the general resurrection I shall receive the same again by the mighty power of God, and as touching such worldy estate wherewith it has pleased God to bless me in this life, I give, demise and dispose of the same in the following manner and form.
First I give and bequeath to my Brother Lazarus FLORA all my part of the land I heired by my Father to him and heirs forever.
Item. I give and bequeath to my Sister Julia FLORA and Charloty FLORA all my part of the perishable estate that I heired by my Father. I do hereby ordain and appoint my well beloved Mother Luraney FLORA my executor to this my Last Will and Testament. Given under my hand and seal this 11th day of March 1814.
