John Plott - Estate Papers
I suppose if I had to guess where John Plott was buried, I would use the facts of history. From North Carolina estate records, John died in 1844. During the same year his son, Robert Gilliam Plott died. A grave marker for Robert Gilliam Plott is located in Cold Water Lutheran Church Cemetery, Cold Water, Cabarrus County, North Carolina, USA. As Robert Gilliam Plott died about twelve (12) months after his father, I would guess that they were buried in the same cemetery. I have no proof. The biggest problem I have with my guess is that John's estate filing was processed in Rowan County and not Cabarrus County. I don't know why.
From John Plott's estate file. This page discloses that Daniel Walker (Pheby Ann Plott's husband) handles John Plott's estates as his brother-in-law, Robert (Gilliam) Plott was deceased.
John Plott's estate documentation can be found in N.C., Estate Files, 1663-1979, Rowan County. Unfortunately, the files does not contain a Last Will and Testament for John. Within the file are two Administration Bond, which the signers agree to the responsibility of settling John’s estate.
The first Administration Bond was on “this 5th day of Feby. Anno Domini 1844” and signed by Robt. G. Plott, Alexr. Patterson and James Klutts. Robert was John’s son. James Klutts was the husband of Rhue, John’s daughter. At this time, I do not know who Alexander Patterson was to John Plott; neighbors, friends or relations.
The second Administration Bond was on “this 4th day of February Anno Domini, 1845” and signed by Daniel M. Walker, John M. Long and James Honeycutt. Daniel M. Walker was the husband of Pheby Ann, John’s daughter. At this time, I do not know who John M. Long and James Honeycutt were to John Plott; neighbors, friends or relations.
John’s son, Robert Gilliam, died within twelve months of John’s death.
It was recorded that Alexander Boyd was paid $6.00, “for making the coffin for dec’d (John)”.
