I searched on the LVA online chancery records for this case and was unable
to find anything. Do these chancery records exist? Supposedly Henry Mason
died in 1808 in Stafford County, VA. And supposedly there is a will for
him. However, there are no wills online at FamilySearch for this timeframe.
Do the wills for Stafford County in 1808 exist?

See newspaper article I transcribed below:

Printed in the Virginia Herald, February 14, 1818

Stafford County Court, January 12, 1818.

On motion of Bill by Jameson Corbin, in right of his wife Mary N. who was
Mary N. Mason, it is ordered, that Thomas Jeffries, Executor of Henry
Mason, dec’d; Valentine Mason, Charles Bruce, in right of his wife Sarah J.
who was Sarah J. Mason, Waller Hudson, in right of his wife Elizabeth T who

age, by his guardian Conway Spilman, appointed by the court to defend him
in this suit – do appear here on the second Monday in April next, being
court day, and shew cause, if any they can, against the sale of the
personal Estate of Henry Mason, deceased, and distribution made of the
monies arising therefrom, according to the will of the testator – and it

an inhabitant of this state; it is ordered, that publication of this order
be made as to the said absentee.

John M. Conway, C. S. C. (Does this stand for Clerk of Stafford Court???
Last letter is hard to read, it looks like a "C")
