Suit: Children of Bernard Hendrick vs. Andrew Moorman and wife, in Amelia County.

Summary: Robert Goode, representing the four children of Bernard Hendrick, brought suit to force a distribution of the estate in May 1791. Bernard Hendrick's will left his entire estate to his wife Prudence for as long as she was unmarried; if she remarried she was to receive a child's share. The will named three sons (Robert Hendrick, Garland Hendrick, and Calvin Hendrick) and made provision for a posthumous child; Goode Hendrick is the posthumous child. Prudence subsequently married Andrew Moorman. Both executors of the will are now dead and no administrator with the will annexed has been appointed. Andrew Moorman testified that he possessed the estate and he had no objection to a division. The Amelia County court ordered that the estate be distributed to the five heirs. In November 1796 Robert Goode complained that no distribution had yet been made. The estate was distributed in 1797.

14 Jan 1792 Probate: Estate of the Orphans of Bernard Hendrick, late of Amelia County, Decd. Robert Goode, guardian of the Orphans of the Decedent, namely Robert Hendrick, Garland Hendrick, Calvin Hendrick, and Bernard G. Hendrick, reported to the
Court that, after the Widow had taken a child's part [she had remarried], the Orphans share of the Estate included 18 Negroes, 4 horses, 11 cattle, etc. (Amelia County, Virginia, Will Book 4, pp. 262, 264). p. 203
