On the third of August 1859, Thomas A. Whitney appeared before W. A.
Hunt, Justice of the Peace requesting a Citation be issued requiring the
proper persons to appear to attend the probate of the Last will and Testament
of Zabud Lounsberry.
The actual will is missing. The Surrogate Court records
identify Thomas A. Whitney as executor [Note: Thomas A. Whitney was a Justice of the Peace]
Further documents identify Margaret Cusick of the Town of Cortlandt
(her mark) and Delila Roundl(her mark) as witnesses to the signature of Zabud Lounsberry on his
will dated July 18, 1859. The Surrogate Court records identify Hiram Rowel
of White Plains as guardian for Amanda Hayes and Zabud Lockwood, minors.
From 1859 to 1867 Hiram P. Rowel of White Plains was Westchester County Clerk.
