Notes

Note N106On 23 September, 1756 and 28 September, 1756, Reuben Daniel, husband of Anthorit, was made guardian of Anthorit's daughter, Elizabeth Montague, and charged with the task of securing her estate. This would seem to indicate that Anthorit had died by this time.

Orange County probate records indicate that Reuben Daniel was the custodian of Anthorit's daughter, Elizabeth Montague from 1757 to abt Aug 23, 1759. (Vol 2, page 294 of the Orange Co, will books). Anthorit must have died before 1757; in fact, she may have already been deceased by Oct 26, 1756, when another settlement was made on the estate of Peter Montague. In that settlement, Reuben and Anthorit's two daughters were mentioned, but Anthorit herself was not.

OR

Anthorit lived for 2 or 3 more years (up to abt 1759). Lucy Daniel (b 1757?) could have been her daughter. This could be supported by the fact that Elizabeth Montague (daughter of Peter and Anthorit Montague) changed her guardian in Sep. 1759 from Reuben Daniel to Thomas Montague.
