SOURCE: a slim volume titled "Mississippi County Court Records, from the May Wilson McBee Papers," originally published in 1958, reprinted by Genealogical Publishing Co., Baltimore, 1994, 1999, 2008. This booklet quotes marriage, birth, and death announcements as well as wills and probate accounts from several Mississippi counties including Wilkinson County. The book is by no means a complete listing of documents in the county courthouses.

In this booklet are portions of the wills of Francis Richardson (ca 1763 - 12/13/1820) and his wife, Martha Gaulden Richardson (11/26/1765 - 7/12/1832).
