Chesson, Betsy, 1816
Bond dated 10 April 1816 in the amount of five hundred pounds appointing Joseph Snell administrator of the estate of Betsy Chesson deceased, John Alexander & Peter Marriner securities.
Transcriber's Notes:
There is some possibility that this is the same person as the Elizabeth Chesson who died and left a will in 1814. However, there is no
mention of administration with the will attached here. The gap of two years also makes it questionable unless the will was contested, but
there is no evidence of that having happened.
