Thomas Kellow Will 1740's MD - 1834 TN
I finally got a chance to look at a reference book that contained a "name source" of the Williamson County, Tennessee Will Book #5.Here's the entry that names Thomas Kellow's children and wife (living ones mentioned in the Will).
Thomas Kellow Will dated 16 July 1833, probated July term 1834.
wife: Lelia R. Kellow (should be "Celia" - Ross Kellow)
sons: Thomas (H.) Kellow, Hezekiah, Presslie Jones (is Jones his middle name?), and William
daughters: Celia R. Ann Jobe, Elizabeth A. Harrison
executor: Lelia R. Kellow (Celia)
witness: Thomas H. Wilkinson, Hezekiah Hill
I suppose it take an actual trip to the County Courthouse to get a copy of the actual Will, if possible at all.One noticeable person missing is Arthur Kellow.I've always thought he was a brother to Thomas H. but he's not here.He was definitely alive in 1834 - he married Frances Neeley in 1836.Arthur could be an early son of Hezekiah or William.
Other Williamson County miscellaneous records include:
1 - Hezekiah Kellow was deposed in a Williamson County trial (State vs. Cyrus Giles).Hezekiah gave a deposition of an event he witnessed in Hardin County in October 1828.
2 - A "Mrs. Kellow" died in the poor house in April 1851 and the county had to pay someone to build her coffin.
3 - Williamson County marriages:

Zachariah T. Kellow to Nancy M. Hughes 9/28/1868
