A woman on the Antiques Roadshow from El Paso brought in the will of Texas patriot Ben R. Milam. She said she recovered the will from a stack of papers that were about to be burned to make way for new records at the old Nacogdoches Court House. That story got my attention. Makes my stomach sick to think of what records have been destroyed.
BUT… I wouldn’t be writing about this unless there was a Pryor mentioned on the will. Milam named Richard Pryor as one of the executors of his will.
Which Richard Pryor do we think this is?????
