Note: I thought the inventory of the Estate of Sarah Pegram would be of interest to family members even though there are missing items that I can not decipher from the copy I have. I have listed all the items I have been able to make out but the original book is now in very poor condition and extremely difficult to read. If anyone has a copy of this instrument or a transcription of the original, please let me know and I will in the blanks. The original consists of 14 lines of inventory with the values assigned to each item. I will simply list the items as well as possible and indicate missing words with a blank. |
