    Court of Itawamba County, MS at its September 1863 term, the executors
    presented a petition requesting Letters of Execution so they could conduct
    business for the estate. In that petition, the executors state that S. John
    Warren "died on or about the 9th day of September 1863...at the time of his
    death, he possessed an estate and personal property consisting of quarter
    sections of land, negro slaves, horses and cattle and hogs worth about
    $15,000."
