Sources: Centre County Heritage Vol 31 No 1, Centre County Hist Soc, State Coll.Pa Centre County Orphans Court, will and probate of Jacob E. Stover 1858, etc Originally Johns brother Samuel was to be executor of Jacob E's estate, but because of some money problems,( big money draws by some before the accounting, which took all but apprx 800.before disbursements. Auditors record to the court) etc., a number of the papers in court have John H as executor??

I hope someone can use this
