Notes
General:
On February 2, 1850 Berry Jarman of Sumter Co. "for and in consideration of the natural love & affection which I bear unto my daughter Martha Jarman before marriage but now Martha Hitt and for her better maintainance and to assist her in raising her children and also in consideration of the sum of one Dollar" conveys to Martha Hitt one Negro girl named Laveni "during her natural life and then to the heirs of her body to her sole use and benefit free from all liabilities of her present or after husbands" (L/135).

Henry J. Hitt died intestate, but his estate was probated. He died before October 19, 1850. His wife is not mentioned in the probate proceedings, and it seems likely that she died at about the same time as her husband.
