He named his nine children and each was to receive a one-ninth share of his estate. Gifts of cash or land given to a few of them prior to his death were to reduce that share of the Estate. His son Paul was nominated as Executor and also as trustee for the share of Mary Howard, daughter of John. Son William was already dead so his share was to be divided equally among his children. The codicil left the original will intact but added that sons Paul and Walter had already received land and John had received cash, so their share was to be reduced.
