Each daughter was to be paid $170 by the executors. [Essex County, Virginia, Will Book 26, pages 618–619.]

In 1855, Nancy Taylor, Elizabeth Verlander, Henry Beazley, John R. Beazley, and William R. Johnson and Lucinda his wife complained to the County Court of Essex in Chancery sitting. That William Beazley late of this county departed this life several years ago, testate. Your orator Nancy Taylor is the widow of George Taylor, deceased, who died sometime in the year 1852, and that she is a daughter of William Beazley. Elizabeth Verlander is the widow of James Verlander, deceased, who died sometime in 1853, and a daughter of William Beazley. And that Nancy Taylor, Elizabeth Verlander, Henry Beazley, John R. Beazley, Lucinda the wife of Wm. R. Johnson, and Martha Ellen an infant under 21 are the children and only children of the said William Beazley. In his will, the testator lent his estate to his wife, Elizabeth. After her death, he gave to Martha Ellen the choice of megro woman Judith’s three youngest children, the personal estate to be equally divided, and real estate is to be divided between his two sons Henry and John. Elizabeth the widow died in 1854. Martha Ellen cannot agree to division except through a court of equity.

In 1858, orator and oratrix Moses T. Crow and Martha Ellen his wife complained to the Circuit Court of Essex County that William Beazley, the father your oratrix, died testate in 1850. He devised to his wife Elizabeth Beazley during her life or widowhood all his estate, and after her death he bequeathed to your oratrix the choice of the three youngest children of his negro woman Judith, and further that the balance of the personal estate was to be divided between all his children or their heirs. The testator nominated his two sons Henry Beazley and John Beazley his executors, and administration was granted to Henry Beazley. Henry Beazley sold personal property to settle debts, and the estate remained with Elizabeth Beazley until she died intestate on 5 July 1854. On 25 January 1855, Henry Beazley sold the estate’s personal property other than the negroes for the sum of $105.17-1/2. In January 1855, the said negroes were divided between the legatees under a decree of the County Court of Essex in the Chancery suit of Taylor v Beazley, but Henry Beazley has never accounted with your complainants for their distribution share of the estimated hires of said negroes nor for the $105.17-1/2. Just before the said division took place, your oratrix having under said William Beazley’s will, the selection of one of the three youngest children of the testator’s negro woman named Martha, made choice of a negro boy named Charles, and in the said division she drew the negro woman Martha, but Henry as adminsitrator took possession of Charles and Martha, and hired out Charles for 1855 to Aubrey H. Jones and Martha to George H. Van Ness. William Beazley left children your oratrix the said Martha Ellen, who intermarried with your orator on the 5th July 1856, the said Henry Beazley and John Beazley, Nancy, who intermarried with [blank] Taylor, now deceased, Elizabeth, who intermarried with James H. Verlander, now deceased, and Lucinda R. who intermarried with William C. Johnson. The said [blank] Taylor and James H. Verlander departed this life before the said Elizabeth Beazley.
The answer of Henry Beazley in his own right and as administrator with the will annexed of William Beazley, deceased. He denies that he has not settled an account of his administration on the estate of William Beazley, deceased. That Charles and Martha were hired out for 1855 prior to the decree dividing the estate in January 1855. That on 4 August 1856, Martha Ellen Beazley entered into a marriage contract with Moses T. Crow in which she conveyed all her estate in trust to Richard P. Banks, who should have been a plaintiff.

In 1866, orator Wm. M. T. Crow and oratrix Martha E. his wife, daughter of William Beazley, decdeased, complained to the Essex County Court in Chancery sitting. That William Beazley died in 1850 testate, loaning to his wife all his estate, and she died without having remarrried. William left children Henry Beazley, Lucinda wife of Wm. R. Johnson, Elizabeth Verlander, Ann E. Taylor and John W. Beazley with your oratrix. John W. Beazley died in 1864 never having married and leaving no lawful children. For division of the land. In 1867 a decree for partition was entered, but for some reason this case remained on the docket; a later note from 1879 states, “It appearing that more than seven years have elapsed since any order has been entered in this cause, it is ordered to the stricken from the docket with leave to either party to have the same reinstated at any future time—” [Essex County, Virginia, Chancery Causes, William M. T. Crow et ex v Henry Beazley et al, 1879-021.]
