Lynn,
I also have a copy of the Hezekiah ROB(E)Y will. Along with the will, there are also copies of the disposal of Hezekiah's estate and the care of his "infant [minor] son, Napoleon."

Too, I have a copy of the administation of the estate of Leonard ROBY, signed by Hezekiah ROBY.

You might be interested to known that our ROBEY family genealogist, Billy ROBEY, has a copy of the diary of Hezekiah's nephew--a son of Jeremiah--who wrote that he took a trip down to KY to visit 'Uncle Hez and Aunt Pol.' He visited for an extended time and names 7-8 of the children.

Speaking of Jeremiah ROB(E)Y: he had a descendant, who later became a priest in the Latter Day Saints Church. This line is documented by virtue of the LDS connection.

In reference to Leonard ROBY: Billy ROBEY believes that Leonard could be an older, or eldest, son of Hezekiah. Leonard is probably named for his grandfather.

I am trying to locate siblings for my ancestor, Thomas ROB(E)Y. This Thomas appears to be laterally connected to Hezekiah. I would be interested to hear about your line.

Beth Robey
