This collection is made up of a handwritten copy of the will of Charles Bennet, 3rd Earl of Tankerville. Charles Bennet signed the original will in 1762 and died in 1767. William Newton, a notary public in London, certified a true copy of the will on 9 February 1790. That copy was recorded in the Dumfries District Court in Virginia, probably in the process of completing the sale of the Loudoun County property by the Earl's heirs to Jospeh Braden in 1790. On 22 August 1814, the Prince William County Clerk of Superior Court certified this copy of the will recorded in Dumfries District Court. The document is eleven handwritten pages.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
