Hendrick Bosch, of New York, sword cutler, considering my great age and other bodily infirmities. I leave to the coheirs of my son, Albert Bosch, deceased, procreated by my first wife, Anna Maria Rembach, viz.: Jurian, Justus, Casparus, Albertus, and Anna Maria, wife of Mr. Marshall, of this city, taylor, the sum of 6 shillings to be equally divided among them, in full of any pretense to my estate, I declaring that I have heretofore, during the life of the said Albert, their father, sufficiently provided for him. I leave to my daughter Dorothea, procreated by my second wife, Maria Eshuysen, and now the wife of Isaac Kasperse, of Albany, 1 shilling, in full of her part. I leave to my daughter Hillegant, procreated by my second wife, and now the wife of Lodowyk Ackerman, 1 shilling. I leave to my dear and entirely beloved wife Egbertie, all my estate, real and personal, with full power to sell or mortgage, without giving account to my children or any one else. After her death, what is left is to be divided by my sons, Hendrick, Samuel, and Joshua, and my daughter Cornelia, wife of Peter Cavalier, all procreated by my wife Egbertie, in four equal parts among them. But my son Hendrick is to have besides, the sum of £7, 10s., as a gift for the particular service he has done for me some years past. I make my wife executor. Dated April 23, 1701. Witnesses, Gerardus Keteltas, Abraham Gouverneur. (Not proved.) .

[Note.—The house of Hendrick Bosch was on the north side of Pearl Street, the second lot east from the corner of Broad Street. The lot next east of Fraunces Tavern was a water lot opposite the above, and was granted to the son, Albert Bosch, November 19, 1686. The descendants of Hendrick Bosch, or some of them, took the name of Bush.—W. S. P.]
