Biography

Mary was born about 1750.

"Aaron Read Pendrey" set his hand and seal to his Last Will and Testament on the 8th of September 1783 bequeathing unto Lewis Barker and wife Mary Barker, 100 acres of land lying on No. side of Neuce [Neuse] River joining his own line, joining the lines of Henry Kemp & Joseph Nix, and also the two negroes, as my son-in-law Lewis Barker hath in his own possession known by the names of Sarah and Daniel.[1] Lewis Barker and Edmunds Barker along with Moses Read, Jesse Read and William Burton were named Executors of the estate. It should be noted that, although his name was shown as Aaron Read Pendry and the signature shown as the same, he named all his children by the last name Read as well as his wife Jemimah.

She passed away in 1830. [2]
