It can be noted there is some overlap with the names of those inherited by his wife Elizabeth (Dunn) Kinnebrew. Quoting from her father's will:

I give unto my Daughter Elizabeth five negroes to Wit Patty and her three children, Charlotte, Clary and Peter, with my boy, Sam. It is to be understood that the boy Sam is given to my daughter Elizabeth in exchange for her girl Milly. But if Said boy Sam is appraised to more than Milly She is to pay the difference to my Son Alfred.
