Notes
Page 177.--THOMAS LEWIS. In the name of God, Amen. "I, Thomas Lewis, of New York, merchant, being in good health, but now bound out on a voyage, and knowing that the time is uncertain when it will please God to take me out of this vile and transitory world." And to the end that no variances might hereafter arise do make this my last will and testament. I give to my son, Thomas Lewis, €5, when he is 21, over and above all other legacies. The rest of my estate I leave to my wife, Frances Lewis, during widowhood, with full power to sell houses and lands with the advice and consent of my brothers, Leonard Lewis and Barent Rynders. If my wife should marry, then she is to have and enjoy the household stuff and wearing apparell, jewels, rings, diamonds, etc., and one half of my estate in houses and lands. When she remarries, the estate is to be divided, and the share of my children is to be put into the hands of my brothers, Leonard Lewis and Barent Rynders, who I name as executors. Dated January 10, 1699/1700.
