Will

JOSIAH EDWARDS. In the name of God, Amen. February 9, 1712/13. I, Josiah Edwards, of the town of East Hampton, in the County of Suffolk, husbandman, being sick in body. I leave to my sons, Josiah, Joseph, Churchill, Jonathan, David and Nathaniel, all my lands, meadows, and rights in Commonage, both at home and at Montacket, with all the privileges. I leave to my wife Mary, and to my daughters Martha, Mercy and Mary, all my movables, both indoors and without. And if my wife lives, and does not marry, then she is to have the improvement of all my lands till my children are of age. My sons are to be put out by my executors to learn suitable trades. If my wife lives till my sons are of age, and they see cause to make improvement of my house, so that she cannot comfortably live in it, then my sons are to pay her €18 yearly. I make Annanias Conkling, Lewis Conkling and my brother, Thomas Edwards, executors.[2]
