John died at Smithfield, 22 Feb 1752. His will was dated 1 Oct 1751, proved 31 Mar 1752. He named Sarah as his wife. One third of the homestead was left to son Enoch. The other two-thirds was to be divided among Comfort, Zebedee, and Christoper, all under age 21. The farm contained 200 acres. The rest of his land was to be sold to pay debts and bring up his young children. He left 200£ to daughter Mary, and 80£ to his "son in law" Zephaniah Phillips to be paid when he reached age 21.
