Hi, I am curious about something. My 4th great-grandmother, Elizabeth Walthall Poland McCune renounciated the provisions made for her in her second husband Robert McCune's will as follows: I, Elizabeth C. McCune relict and widow of Robert McCune decd. of the County of Amelia hereby relinquish and renounce all and every of the provisions made for me by the will of my late husband. Witness my hand and seal this 26th day of September 1855. Also the executor named in the will declined to be executor in court. Why would these two things happen? I am particularly interested in why she would so so. Thank you.
