Notes

In the name of God, Amen, May 13, 1752, I, THOMAS LAWRENCE, of Westchester, being very sick. I leave to my wife Deborah my negro girl, and the use of all my lands during widowhood. I leave to my son Thomas my Great Bible, my gun, and sword (a silver hilted one) and a horse, bridle, and saddle when he is 18. If my wife marries, all the personal estate is to be sold, and the proceeds divided among my wife and 4 daughters, Deborah, Margaret, Mary, and Elizabeth. I leave to my sons, Thomas and Nathaniel, all my lands and appurtenances, “and my negro ‘Jacob’ shall go along with the lands.” I make my brother (in law), Gerardus Willse, and Joseph Embury, executors.

Witnesses, Cornelius Hunt, Samuel Embree, Adrian Lafarge. Proved October 19, 1752.
