For anyone wishing to read the Robert Box will, the WPA typed version is available for free from
from "Tennessee, Probate Court Books, 1795-1927 - Franklin

So far as I can tell and remember, only the typescript version of several of the original will books is available on microfilm [and online]. I do not know whether the original books survive.
I just looked at this WPA transcript today and have reproduced the typescript about Items 4 [listed in the typescript as a second "Item 3rd" and 6 as given in the [rather poorly done] WPA typescript:
"Item 3rd I leave to my two Daughters Ruth & Ann
One hundred Dollars each out of my Stock and household furniture
to make them equal to the other Daughters that are married "
"Item 6th I leave the balance of my property equally between my
four daughters Mary intermarried to Verdimor Joy and Sarah who
intermarried to Charles McDaniel Ruth and Anne above stated to be
divided among them"
Just another note, the word Jurat [legal term for witness] is used throughout these transcripts for the witnesses to wills, and is not the word/name Jurah as some transcripts seem to have used for Mr. Box's will. Thus, it is Benj. Hollingsworth, Jesse Goodwin, and Joicy Hollinsworth who witnessed the signing of the Box will.
For what it is worth, there seems to be no Joy family on the 1820 Franklin County, TN census. The enumerator in that year listed names by alpha order of first letter of the surname, and interfiled the I and J surnames, using an identical initial letter for I or J [as can be seen for the name James Ivy, where the surname is quite clearly Ivy and not Joy.] On the same page as James Ivy are one of the John Jones men and another Ivy:
1820 Franklin Co., TN census [bottom of facing page is stamped 37; image 17 of 34 at ancestry.com], line 1, #792 Ivy Vardiman 211201-31211 [3 in agriculture]
line 2, #793 Jones John 120201-31211 [4 in agriculture]
There is no one else as head of household there in 1820 with a similar given name to this Vardiman fellow. Again, for what it is worth, there is an extant piece of a marriage bond for a Vardiman Ivy to a Mary Martin in 1797, this being in Grainger County, TN. At least one researcher suggests that Mary (Martin) Ivy died around 1816 in Franklin Co., TN and that Vardiman remarried to Mary Box. For reference, see
