Yesterday
I completed the will of my 2nd great-grandfather, Solomon Bond, who
died in Linn County Oregon. Today I am beginning the will of his
grandfather, my 4th great-grandfather, Solomon Bond, who died in
Mahaska County Iowa, probably in 1851.
I
also want to declare my appreciation that my 2nd cousin, Robert Bond,
alerted me to this will document which was located online. Again I
repeat, if you see any errors, please contact me.
