Estate of Henry Silvester probated amid caveat dispute
In Sydney probate court last Wednesday the estate of the late Henry Crawford Silvester, a former small goods merchant who died in 1935 leaving £80,000, faced a caveat by nephew Vernon Silvester claiming testamentary incapacity. Witness Albert Bibby described Silvester’s chaotic Oatley home filled with parcels of foodstuffs and rotting vegetables, and odd feats like a bed of bags and a Hawkesbury River boat voyage for building material. The case centers on the will and the executors’ probate request versus the caveat.
