1. The Will of George ELY of Finley Twp., Washington Co., PA. Washington Co., PA, Will Book #4, p. 502. Signed 10 Apr 1824; proved 1 Apr 1830. George has been said to have died in March of 1830, but wills have been proved months, even years, after the death of the testator, so unless there is something else to coroborate his death date, all we can say for certain is that he died some time between 10 Apr 1824 and 1 Apr 1830, though most likely closer to the latter date than the former. 2a.
