Felix McGee

Felix "Phelix" McGee (Magee), third child of Patrick and Rosanna Magee wrote his will on 2 Feb 1817 and died soon afterward near present day Hillsboro, Missouri. The will was probated 24 Jun 1817.

Court records show that the will was probated in St. Louis County, Missouri Territory. His will gave disposition of his property including slaves. One item in the settlement of Felix's "Phelix" estate was a bill to pay for lumber to build a coffin dated February 11, 1816 signed by William Crow who was the administrator of Patrick Magee's estate. William Crow was also the husband of Sarah (Sally) Magee, eighth child of Patrick and Rosanna. Because of this item it is assumed that Patrick died on or about February 11, 1816 in the Missouri Territory. Patrick's Will has not been found. Patrick and Felix "Phelix" are both probably buried near Hillsboro, Missouri, either on the old family Plantation or a nearby church.* Reference: Find A Grave Memorial - SmartCopy: Mar 15 2024, 18:09:06 UTC
