SHADRACK CARY Onslow County, N. C. Will
Written: Apr 8, 1823
Proved: May 1823 Court term

Wife: Rebecca
(Onslow Marriages says he married Elizabeth Carey but gave no date. Rebecca may be a 2nd wife)--give to Rebecca the house and cleared land adjoning them so far as a small locust tree in my peach orchard and and brought througn the neck so as to include my field on bear head during her natural life. I give the cleared land on Waleses (?Wallases) Creek side and the ballance of my peach orchard and all on the North side of the line both cleared and woodland to be equally divided between my two daughters POLLY and ELIZABETH them and their heirs for ever I mean north of the line from the locust tree to the mouth of bear Head.
Son: DANIEL CARY-- 50 Acres on Wellses Fork (may mean Wallaces) on the north side of Cowhead Creek, also 50 acres more bing in Jumpenrun neckk which John Gornto was to make me a deed to which I wish made to son Daniel.
Daughter: Polly
Daughter: Elizabeth
Item: I give at the death of my wife the lands I lent her to be equally divided amongst ALL my children according to quantity and Quality INCLUDIND my youngest DAUGHTER ELAN as well as my above named children.
Item: I give Wall--Broun 5 shotes.

I leave my wife my sole executrix
He made his mark

Test: Dan W. Dulany
Daughter: Elan (this one may be by Rebecca)

The wording implies to me that Daniel, Polly and Elizabeth are somewhat different than Elan. Also the daughter, Elizabeth, probably named for the wife Elizabeth Carey in the Onslow list of marriages(see my post #1345).
Also the list of marriages show a marriage of a Polly Cary to Henry Howard, Jr Dec.15, 1830.
