On 16 May 1858, Phillip Six of Hinds County, Mississippi died leaving a large estate with a son and three daughters as heirs-at-law. The son, Asahel and two daughters, Margaret and Lohoma had married Brock men and women all related and part of my Brock lineage. The 3rd daughter, Agnes was the wife of Samuel Heard, named within this Land Deed.
In a previous Land Deed dated 1 Feb. 1847, Phillip Six had already conveyed to his daughter Lohoma Brock a tract of land containing 200 acres. [Deed Book 18, page 369].
Asahel Six and Sarah Brock were married 22 Nov 1838; Margaret Six and Moses A. Brock were married 15 Feb. 1838 and Lohoma Six and Francis M. Brock were married 23 Dec. 1840. This particular land deed does not state how many acres of Land were involved; nor, have I yet found any indication that Moses Brock and his wife, Margaret Six received any portion of her father’s estate.
In the below deed Asahel Six and his wife Sarah (Brock) Six are quit claiming their interest in the Phillip Six estate lands to Samuel Heard for Five Hundred Dollars.
