Notes |
- Roane County, Tennessee Chancery Court Minutes, Roll #39, Book , Pages 725-729Date: Dec 10, 1833William C. Kington and wife Rhody, David Summer and wife Charlotte, Matthew Williams and wife Sally, and Isaac England and wife RebeccaVSDavid M. RectorOn July 11, 1830, Martin Rector executed a deed to David M. Rector. On the same day, he executed a bill of sale to David M. and Polly Ann Rector for a Negro boy named Bob and a Negro woman named Lucinda. The Plaintiffs maintain that the Bank of Tennessee called in a loan to Martin Rector. In an effort to prevent the Bank from taking everything, he deeded all his lands and property to his children David and Polly Ann with the intent that when he settle with the Bank he would cancel the deed and the bill of sale. Before being able to do so, he fell sick. He called David to his bedside and requested that David produce the bill and deed so that he could cancel them, because Martin wanted all his children to inherit in his estate. Rather than producing the deed and bill, David took off. He returned a few hours before Martin died, but he never produced the bill and deed. The plaintiffs contend that they should rightfully share in the property. The Judge ruled in favor of David and Polly Ann. The plaintiffs planned to appeal the decision in the Supreme Court of Errors and Appeals in Knoxville on the 2nd Monday in July next (1834).Morgan County, Tennessee Deeds, Roll #18, Book C, Pages 104-106Date: Apr 18, 1834David M.
