The 1759 will and codicil of Caleb Horton names his children, but he only mentions his daughters by their first names, including Phebe. He also mentions one grandchild – Justin King. Justus King, whose given name is sometimes recorded as Justin, was a son of Constant and Phebe Horton King. If Justus/Justin is Caleb Horton's grandson, then Phebe Horton King must be Caleb's daughter. Also, Caleb Horton's will was signed in the presence of Richard Terry, Constant King, Joseph King, and Frederick King. Joseph and Frederick King were sons of Constant and Phebe Horton King. Richard Terry was Caleb Horton's son-in-law, the husband of Caleb's daughter Mary. It stands to reason that Constant King was also Caleb's son-in-law and that Joseph and Frederick King were Caleb's grandsons. The codicil to Caleb Horton's will was signed in the presence of Richard Terry and Constant King. Neither the will nor the codicil contains the name Tuthill.
