Box #47 Suits, Knox County, Ky Filed September 10, 1827 Woods & Wife AG. Dorton & C

To the honorable, the Judge of Knox Circuit Court sitting in Chancery. Your orator & oratrix, Reuben & Sally Woods humbly complaning sheweth unto your honor that the orator, Reuben intermarried with your oratrix Sally, who is the daughter and one of the heirs of Moses Dorton, who departed this life on the day of 1826, leaving his wife, Laodicea, Betsy who intermarried with David Hogan, Patsy who intermarried whit John Patton, Cresy, who intermarried with Jesse Taylor, Laodicea, who intermarried with Peter Wilson, Nancy, who intermarried with John Woolum, and William, James B., Moses, Lucinda and Emily Dorton, his legal heirs and representatives.

The aforesaid Lucinda and Emily being infants under the age of 21 years. Administration of the estate of the said Moses Dorton (who died interstate) was at the term of Knox County Court granted to James B. Dorton, who entered into bond with your orator Reuben, John Patton, David Hogan, Jesse Taylor, Peter Wilson, and John Woolum as his securities.

They state the said MOSES, at the time of his death was the owner of the following tracts of land: 2000, 50, 100, 150, & 50 acres lying in the County of Harlan: 150 acres lying in Knox & Harlan, 100, 50, 50, 50, 33, 230 , 30 acres all of which lie in the county of KNOX, and are collectively of the value of $10,000.

He left slaves to wit: ABRAHAM, JINNY, JIM, LOTT, FANNY, DAVE, NED, GEORGE, ALFRED, ORANGE, LEWIS, TILL, and since his decease, there have been born whose names are unknown to your orator, the aforesaid slaves exclusive of the last two were appraised to $3800 and he supposes the whole to be worth $4000.

He left personal estate which was appraised by the commissioner at $1462. which has since been sold by the administrator the amount of the sale so made is unknown to your orator as no inventory of the estate sold had been returned by the administrator, but they suppose it to be at least equal to the amount of the appraisement. They state that the following tracts of land including the MANISON HOUSE, to wit:

(nothing written)

and the following slaves (to wit) have been assigned to the widow LAODICEA, as dower. They state they recieved from said MOSES in his lifetime, a negro woman slave named HANNAH, of the value of $100: a bed and bed clothes, of the value of $25 and sundry other articles of small value amounting to $20.

They have understood and believed that DAVID HOGAN & WIFE have recieved property to the amount of $1000

JESSE TAYLOR & WIFE TO THE AMOUNT $1000

PETER WILSON & WIFE TO THE AMOUNT OF $1000

JOHN WOOLUM & WIFE TO THE AMOUNT OF $1000

WILLIAM DORTON of the value of $1000

JAMES B. DORTON of the value of $2000

MOSES DORTON of the value of $1000

The description of property and the value thereof is altogether unknown to your orator & oratorix but they suppose the value to be correctly stated. They state that there is a consideralbe portion of the property of deceased in the hands of LAODICEA DORTON of which she has rendered no account to the adminstrator, which that are informed is of the value of $1000 and they state that the bonds for the sale of the personal estate will fall due on the day of the next, and that the land in cultivation and some of the negroes have been hired out for the sum of $ and will fall due on the day of next.

Your orator and oratrix state their protion of the aforesaid estate is held from them and they believe it would greatly conduce to their intrest and the intrest of their heirs to have the real estate sold as the land lies in such a situation and is of such description that it could not be firmly and equally divided and the slaves cannot be divided in numer (?)

To the end therefore that justice may be done and for as much as your orator and oratrix are remediless? at law and can only be relieved in equity where such matters are only properly cognigable?

They pray that the real estate aforesaid may be sold at such time and upon such credit as may right and proper and if that cannot be, that the same be divided and that part to which your orator and oratrix are entitled, be decreed them. And that the aforesaid JAMES B. DORTON be compelled to render an amount of his administration and pay over to them that part of the personal estate to which they are entitled together with their portion of the rents and hire.

They pray that the aforesaid LAODICEA DORTON, be compelled to answer on oath whether or not she did not retain a considerable portion of the estate of the decased of which she rendred no account to the administrator and to specify particularly the several articles so retained and their respective value and also whether or not the said MOSES did not leave at his death a sum of money of which she rendered no account and to state the amount, if any.

They pray the said administrator may say on oath whether or not he has fully administered on all the effects that came into his hands and whether or not he does not know of other property of the deceased of which no account has been rendered.

They pray that each and every one of the heirs be compelled to render on oath an account of all they have recieved from decedant, whether in land, negroes, money, or other property and to state particularly the kind, description, and value of the property and each to state whether or not they know of any property or money of which no account has been rendered to the administrator

They pray that the aforesaid LAODICEA, DAVID HOGAN, AND BETSY HIS WIFE, JOHN PATTON AND PATSY HIS WIFE, JESSE TAYLOR AND CREASY HIS WIFE, PETER WILSON AND LAODICEA HIS WIFE, JOHN WOOLUM AND NANCY HIS WIFE, WILLIAM DORTON, MOSES DORTON, LUCINDA DORTON, EMILY DORTON AND JAMES B DORTON,. the administrator, together with JOHN PATTON, JESSE TAYLOR, DAVID HOGAN, PETER WILSON, AND JOHN WOOLUM, his securities, be made defendants to this bill and answer the several allegations thereof on oath and that the commonwealth writ of (?) may issue directed & c, commanding & c, and on a final hearing, your honor would grant to your orator and oratrix and make such deposition of the estate whether by sale or divison as may be right and proper and such other and further relief as the justice of the case requires and they will ever pray & c.
