Gowns, Petticoats and Silver Spoons
Have you ever seen a court case ordering the sale of the household goods -- including the gowns and petticoats -- to pay a debt?
I admit I haven't looked at a lot of court records - but this one is new to me.
I found the court case when looking for documents relating to CRAWFORD family members in Madison County, Kentucky. The index for the Court of Quarter Sessions case files led me to Case #588 for William Crawford vs William Cox.
