Transcription of will of Mary J. Wykle, Will Books 1832 - 1969, Fayette County, West Virginia, Will Book Vol. 7, 1931 - 1941, p. 575, Reel #585511, Family History Library, Salt Lake City, Utah.

According to court records, this will was presented to the court in the form of a handwritten letter. It appears the court clerk transcribed it as faithfully as possible. Spellings and capitalizations in my transcription appear as they do in the typed court transcript. My best guess for the item listed as "lector Sado" is leather saddle. If you have any other ideas, please let me know.
