I also have a copy to this will and was surprised to find that he owned slaves. In general it is stated that the germans were not slave holders but I have found a lot of the second & third generation germans were slave holders.I have never looked for slave records for Cabarrus and Rowan counties, but have seen records in other counties. I also have an copy of the sale of the other property of Henry Pless, Sr. not willed (estate sale).
