The Executor: John Range of Mount Pleasant Township was responsible for carrying out the will.
The Heirs (Grandchildren):

Ann Range Beecher (and her husband, John Beecher)
Almost two decades after the will was written, the payments were finalized in 1806:
Ann Range Beecher and John Beecher received their share, $114.80, on May 12, 1806. They signed a release (a legal receipt) to confirm they were paid and would make no future claims against the executor.
Theobald Shollas Patterson received his legacy of $129.83 sometime before June 7, 1806 (that's the date his release was acknowledged). This specific payment was linked to a property sale on April 4, 1806, where Theobald Patterson sold property in Mount Pleasant Township to the executor, John Range. The sale settled his final claim against the estate.


Theobald married Magdalena.
