Note by transcriber:
James and Alzynie (Alzana or Zany) Aultman signed this document
along with their two surviving sons, James (James K. Polk) and G.
W. (George Wilson) and their last unmarried daughter, Nannie
(Nancy) Aultman. They had one other daughter still living at the
time of this document (Frances C.) but she had since married and
apparently as such had no legal reason to be included in this
document. |
