Capt Harry Beverley, son of Robert, wrote his will in 1730 and his daughter Mary was unmarried then

... Item. I give to my daughter Mary all the rest and residue of the above said tract of land to her and to her heirs forever, also two negro slaves named Joshua & Cloe & their increase & my riding horse over & above her equal share of my slaves & personal estate in consideration for her services eleven years as my House Keeper. ...

Note from Curator Pam Wilson: I removed her from her marriage to Benjamin Winslow since it was unlikely that she married a Benjamin Winslow in Anson County, NC and her sister Susanna married a Benjamin Winslow in Essex County, VA. If she indeed married the same Benjamin as her sister, then please connect them. Thanks!
