Will
Page 390.—In the name of God, Amen. I, CORNELIUS DE DE LAMETTER of Kingston, Ulster County, Esq. It is my express order that my two sons, Abraham and Benjamin, shall each pay one half of my debts and funeral charges in consideration of what I devise them. To my daughter Selitje; wife of Matheus Van Keuren, £100 to be paid to her by my said two sons, also to her my large cubberd with all the Boles standing thereon, also my large looking glass and copper smodring pan. Whereas, Ephrim Dubois, husband to my other daughter (Anna Catrina) is indebted to me by several Bonds upwards of one hundred pounds it is my will that £100 shall be recovered and esteemed as the portion my said daughter shall have as an equivalent with her sister Selitje. Whereas I have conveyed to my son Cornelius the land and stream on the south side of Rondoubt creek I do judge that to be the portion which he ought to have. To my son Abraham my dwelling house wherein I now live, my barn, bark grist-mill, mildams, stream of water called " twalve kill " and the land on both sides of said kill to the land of Johannis Dubois, all to my son Abraham except reserving out of the same for my son Benjamin a small parcel of ground adjoining the land of Johannis Du-bois. To my son Benjamin my lower gristmill and the house wherein my son Abraham now lives with the land on both sides of "twalves kill," etc., and a small parcel of land adjoining Rondoupt Creek about nine acres, also another small peice up the said Creek about nine acres, also another small peice up the said Creek about six acres. And for the rest of my estate I bequeath it to my two sons, Abraham and Benjamin, equally, whom I appoint my executors.
Dated November 28, 1760. Witnesses, Wilhelmus Hooghtyling, Rebeckah DuBois, wife of Jan Dubois, of Kingston; Jan Eltinge. Proved, Ulster County, January 17, 1785. The administration is not given.
