Dutton's will was written in 1716 when he indicated he was in poor health but the will wasn't probated until 1726.On 10/8/1726 a statement was written on the back of Dutton's will by Wm.

Hampton Court was willed to Sary and her sister, Margaret. This property was 100 acres located near Towson, MD.
