Hi, Folks:
If this is the James Carrico from Preston County, WV who served in the Union
Army, I would love to have copy of the will. He would be my great
grandfather's brother. My great grandfather is John H. Carrico.

Morning Tim,
We were in touch several years ago concerning Carrico.
If we read your note correctly, no - the will posted was not the will you are
looking for. Sorry. What we posted was:
SOURCE-WILL:

Note: this book is typewritten all caps, but I have decided not to transcribe
the publication in this manner. Beware that this is no longer a “primary
source” as this will be it’s 3rd (or more) transcription from the original. The
first transcription being what was transcribed from the original will into the
court records (no copier’s or scanners back then!).
