To my daughter Anne - the bed & furniture I now lie on.
To my daughter Rachel - 1 bed & furniture.
To my daughter Betty - £2.10.
The rest of my estate to be sold & divided among my following children: John, Moses & Charles.
Ex. My 2 sons John & Moses Dobyns & Hugh Williams
Wit. Mary (X) Wright, John Wright, Richard Littlepage.
Probate indicates that Moses Dobbins qualified with John Duggar his security, that John Dobbins & Hugh Williams refused to qualify; a further probate action took place the 26 May following.
Old genealogies place Batton Dobyns (m Frances Littlepage) as a son of the above John Batton Dobyns & Sarah. This will clearly proves they were not his parents.
