GREENE COUNTY, GA. WILL BOOK 2, 1794 - 1810

[This is evidently a transcribed will book. At least one of the wills, that of REUBEN BROWN on pages 22-23, was never admitted to probate, and was written in 1825. It is out of place among these early wills. These wills may have been copied from the originals in the apartments at a later date.]
