Notes |
- Died in Allen Twp., "three miles north of Lisburn".
On 19 Oct. 1803 John Mateer was appointed administrator of the Estate of Robert
McTeer of Allen Twp.; bond was set for $500 with Charles Quigley and James
Mateer as sureties.
A 1797 conveyance connecting Robert McTeer of Allen Twp., with Robert Bailey,
named as a son-in-law in the will of James McTeer, together with the fact that
John Mateer, another son of James, filed for Administration on Robert's estate
on 19 Oct. 1803, the very same date when he took their father's will for
probate, and employing the ?father's witnesses as sureties for the bond on
Robert's estate, confirms the placement of this Robert in this family. Further
proof that this Robert was the same as the Co-executor of Samuel McTeer's will
is found in a deed dated 12 June 1805, whereby Rosanna McTeer and William
Bryson conveyed Samuel's real property to James Dunlap; there the grantors
state that they were appointed Executors of Samuel's estate along with on
Robert McTeer, "which Robert is now deceased."
