Abstract of 1799 Will of Samuel Rodman, Jr. of Pelham
In the last few months I have collected abstracts of early wills prepared
by residents of the Manor of Pelham and, later, the Town of Pelham. I
created an index to such postings earlier this year. See
Thursday, March 29, 2007:
Index to Transcripts of Wills and Abstracts of Wills Prepared by Early
Pelham Residents.
Today's posting to the Historic Pelham Blog transcribes an abstract of the
1799 will of Samuel Rodman, Jr. The abstract appeared in Volume 56, Issue
2 of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Record published
in 1925.
"SAMUEL RODMAN, of Pelham; Aug. 22, 1799; devised all real estate to sons
Charles, Samuel and William, except undivided land on Miniford's Island or
elsewhere which latter be devised to daus. Deborah, wife of John Bertine
and Anne; to wife ----, all the money she and James Lewis carried upon
Maniford's Island, likewise the expenses paid out for a law suit of hers
at Bedford and White Plains; mentioned son Samuel under 17; son William
under 16; g. s. Robert Bertine. Executors, friends Josiah Quinby of
Eastchester and nephew Joseph Pell of the same town, and Samuel Titus and
