In the name of God, Amen, July 31, 1732. I, NATHANIEL WILLIAMS, of Huntington, in Suffolk County, being very sick.

Also 13 1/2 acres of land adjoining the land of Henry Titus, which is to be sold by vendue. Of the proceeds, 1/3 is to be paid to my wife, and 2/3 to my daughters, Sarah and Elizabeth, and I also leave to them 2/3 of the movables when they are 18 years of age. I leave to my sons, Nathaniel and Jonas, all my lands, meadows, and tenements, when of age. "And whereas there may be some ground to imagine that my beloved wife Elizabeth may be with child, If it please God that it be a son, he shall have an equal share with the other sons; and if a daughter, then an equal share with the other daughters." My two sons are to pay to my two daughters €20, and my wife is to have the use of all lands, until my sons are of age.

Notes:

The best place in history to begin this story would be in the village of Tiverton, in the County of Devon, England in the year 1727. This was the year that Quinton and Mary Patch were born. Information prior to this date is hazy and needs further study before a firm direction can be taken concerning Quinton and Mary's ancestors. . . . We do know however, that the parents of Quinton and Mary passed away sometime before 1740. At an early age the twins were brought to America, the Colonies, by their foster parents, who settled in Stamford, Connecticut...."
