John conveyed land to his son Samuel on 2 August 1706, two days before his will, so Samuel was not mentioned in the will. The conveyance included a provision for Samuel to deliver to "Sarah my wife his mother" corn, rice, and malt annually as long as she lives.

Elizabeth Lovell-186 is not the same person as John Silvester-42. Not even the same sex.
posted by Cheryl (Stone) Caudill
Lovell-186 and Silvester-42 appear to represent the same person because: Lovell-186 has no LNAB, married to Lovell-4. Silvester-42 married to Lovell-4. Both are same person, need to merge them to clean this up, along with merger of Lovell-4 and Lovell-184, also married to Lovell-186.
