Origins

from John Roe's will: In his will, he wrote: ...22 August, 1712. I, John Roe, of Brookhaven, in Suffolk County, being in health. I leave to my wife Sarah, whom I make sole executor, all my lands, messuages and tenements, that is to say, my now dwelling house, with my land, orchard, and Commonage, and all household goods during her life. I leave one half of my meadow to my eldest son John, and the other half to my son Nathaniel. I give my wife full power to give and bequeath, if she thinks fit, £25 of movable goods, "to that child of mine that carrieth itself lovingest and kindest to her after my decease." I leave all the rest of my movables to my grand daughter, Mary Clark, and to my daughters, Mary Corwin and Elizabeth Mapes. Witnesses, William Davis, John Maxwell. Proved, July 27, 1714.
