Teste James P. Carrell Note: Some of the archaic terms used I was able to define, thanks to A TO ZAX, A COMPREHENSIVE DICTIONARY FOR GENEALOGISTS AND HISTORIANS, by Barbara Jean Evans.   "Cleveses" means "clevis," a u-shaped fastening device, such as is used to hook and unhook a wagon. "Treas" I believe is a misspelling for "trace," a hitching device. "Draw(ing) knife" means a carpenter's tool. "Colter" or "coltor" means a plow share. "Bee gum" means a bee hive.
