We looked up Minnie fisher Cunningham at the court house when we went for class. It was pretty interesting. I found it odd that she left all her stuff to her nephew, but her niece was in charge of all the will stuff. She was the executor of the will and only got minuscule things, while her nephew got the land, the remaining money and the rest of her assets. When we asked the guy about why that could have been, he said that the niece was a little off and that she had been rumored to have thrown precious letters down a well in a fit of rage. I enjoyed learning how to do this so i can go back and look at families records.
We also went over the deed records and found a deed that was sold for a dollar. AWESOME!
