From John's Will:
"He gave to 'beloved wife Sarah' the use of the westerly half of his dwelling, a part of the barn, half the produce of the homestead (the produce to be gathered in by sons Moses and Aaron); if she marry she is to have only her dowry; the sons just named are to furnish her firewood; she is to have also during her widowhood two cows, six sheep, one swine, and the use of all household goods and furniture. To son John are given seventy or eighty acres lying in Madbury 'where he now lives,' also forty acres in Rochester on or near Chestnut Hills. To son Samuel one hundred acres in Chester 'where he now lives.' To son Daniel one hundred acres in Rochester 'where he now lives'; also to Samuel and Daniel his interest in the undivided lands of Rochester. To son Joshua twenty-five acres lying 'where he now lives.' To son Jonathan sixty acres in Rochester on or near Chestnut Hills. To sons Moses and Aaron the 'Homestead Land where I now live', reserving such part as he gives to his wife; also all lands, salt marsh and thatch bed between the main road that leads to Cochecho and Back river; also all live stocks, farming utensils, Black walnut desk, and brass kettle. To daughters Sarah Ham, Anna, Mehitble, 'all my land in third division in Rochester;' also to each £200 old tenor, to be paid respectively in one, two, and three years; also such marriage portions to the last two as had been given to Sarah; to them also he gave furniture."
