JOHN WOODRUFFE III
“The Younger Brother”
Generation 6

John Woodruffe III, “The Younger Brother”, was born in Southampton, about 1650. It was perhaps not until 1670, or later, that he married HANNAH NEWTON. His share ended when, on 14 January 1701, he “in health of body” made his will, and on 1 April 1703, it was proved. Between the death of his father in 1670, and his own death in 1703, Southampton had passed through many changes with ups and downs along the way.

John Woodruff III’s Will

He bequeathed his possessions to his wife, Hannah; to his sons Samuel, Joseph, Benjamin, Nathaniel, Isaac and Jonathan; and to daughters Sarah Davis, Hannah, Abigail, and Elizabeth. When the will was drawn in 1701, all, from Nathaniel down, were not yet twenty-one.

All the siblings except Joseph, remained on Long Island.
