What are these abbreviations in Wills and Administrations of Isle of Wight, Virginia?

Question

I see entries like this one on page 20 of Wills and Administrations of Isle of Wight County, Virginia, 1647-1800:

HIGGINS, Roger: Leg. mother Mary Lupo; at the death of mother my cattle at Edward Millers and Thomas Wombwells to be divided between my brother James Higgins and my Godson Roger Hodges; to my brother Robert Hodge's eldest son; to his second son Elias; to his third son Roger; to James Lupo; to Ann the wife of Nicholas Ogburne. Brother Robert Hodges Ex. D. April 16, 1672. R. Aug. 10, 1672. Wit: Edmond Prime, Nicholas Ogburne. Page 113

What do these abbreviations mean? I've listed my guesses:

• Leg. — Legal
• D. — Death
• Ex. — Executor
• R. — (Unsure what this subsequent date would be.)
• Wit. — Witness

Answer 1

The abbreviations are as follows:

• Leg. - legacy, legacies OR Legatee (the person receiving a legacy)
• D. - Death or dated (surely death in this example)
• Ex. - Executor
• R. - Register: sometimes this is date, register number and folio number but here it is just the date.
• Wit. - Witnesses
