  • Notes 
    • Page 447.--In the name of God, Amen, July 29, 1760. I, SAMUEL TERRY, of Southold, in Suffolk County, "being weak and poor in body." I leave to my wife Naomai, "during the time she shall remain my widow, and no longer," the use and improvement of all my estate, except as hereafter mentioned. I leave to my eldest son Daniel my 2 1/2 lots in Southold where he now liveth. "Also 6 of my lots of land at the North side, the Nethermost Lots," Also the Southermost half part of my 2 Lots in Great Hog Neck, Also 1 Lot of Creek Thatch, "down Wickhams Neck, so called," the eastermost of my lots, Also one Lot of Creek Thatch, lying down Little Neck, which I purchased of John Benjamin's heirs. I leave to my son Richard all my house, lands, meadows, and buildings, and 6 of my North Sea lots, lying south of those I give to my son Daniel, Also my lot of Creek Thatch, down Wickhams Neck, the westermost lot, lying near the land of said Wickham, Also the north half of the land in Great Hog Neck, to begin at the highway and extend south halfway through, the full breadth of said lots, Also 2 Common Rights of undivided Creek Thatch and Creek Thatch ground throughout said Town, Also my team and farming implements, "and the bed which he usually lyeth upon." I leave to my two daughters, Abigail and Bethiah Terry, who now live with me, the use of the west room in my dwelling house, and the well, "and 5 rods square of ground for a garden at the north door of my west room." If either should marry, her right is to cease and to be enjoyed by the other. I also leave them all household goods. All my live stock, after the death of my wife, is to be divided among all my children. I leave to my son Daniel "two small lots on the Hill," and my desk. I leave to my two granddaughters, Louisa and Elizabeth Wines, "those goods that I purchased that was their father's, They paying what I am to give for them when they come of age." It is to be understood that my wife shall have the full use of the estate during her widowhood, except the west room and the garden. I make my wife and my sons Daniel and Richard executors. Witnesses, Robert Hempstead, Elizabeth Davis, Samuel Wines. Proved, September 1, 1762.
