His will names his nine children that survived him. I believe there were  
eleven children total.

     In the name of God, Amen. I, Toliver Craig of  Woodford County, being 
in a low state of health but of perfect disposing mind  and memory, calling 
to mind the uncertainty of this mortal life, do constitute  this my last 
will and testament in a manner and form following: First and  principally I 
recommend my soul to God that gave it, and my body to be interred  after my 
death at the discretion of my executors hereafter named. Secondly and  as for 
the worldly estate the Lord has blessed me with, I lend two negroes named  
Warnick and Teanor and a horse and a best bed and furniture unto by beloved  
wife, Mary Craig, during her natural life and after her death to be equally  
divided among my children hereafter named. Thirdly I desire that my children 
all  be made equal with the one that received the most of my estate: that 
is, what it  was worth when they received it. Fourthly I desire that the 
balance of my estate  both real and personal be equally divided between my nine 
children, namely: John  Craig, Toliver Craig, Lewis Craig, Joseph Craig, 
Elijah Craig, Benjamin Craig,  Jeremiah Craig, Jossie Faulkner, and Elizabeth 
Cave. Fifth it is my will and  desire that my above named children make John 
Sanders and Sarah Singleton part  equal with their s in propert y at the
