Thomasine's will (Wills 11 fol 305) dated Sep 19, 1701 proved Nov 27, 1702 devised to her loving son William and his heirs the tract of land I now live on called "Small Hopes".

William Hyden was 49 in 1723 , hence born in 1674. His father Francis, seemed to spell the name Heyden, but his wife's will shows Hayden, which became (and remains) the usual spelling in Maryland.
