| Probate | 12 December 1795 | Her estate was probated on 12 December 1795 at Mannington, Salem Co., New Jersey.9 |
| Note* | From Val Caulfield 16 Feb 2004: Wanted to say this while it is clear in my mind. Sometimes I lose sight of the obvious. The proof, for me anyway, is Mary Webber's will. When she devised land to her son Thomas Jr or should he die without heirs, the same to go to her dau Mary - that is what ties this all together. Henry had left all his estate, real and personal, to his only daughter Mary. Mary could NOT have given lands not held in her own right. We covered that with the Act of Legislature that created Inheritance Laws for that time, and some of Richard's further expansion of the topic of woman's rights and inheritance. Nor was her name even included on the unrecorded deed from Proctor to Thomas Webber, which were the 20 acres in Pennsneck. We don't have a deed for the Mannington lands Webber held later, but those are not the issue. By careful comparison of the Divisions of Lands for both Thomas Webber Sr. and Jr, and the later will of Poultis Risener, then his widow Mary Webber Paullin Risner, it is clear to me that the father's portions were given in every instance via their own wills. The ONLY gap here is what David Paullin may have had or what happened to his estate, though I doubt he left one, as evidenced by Mary's "quit claim" to lands seized from HER for his debt. Richard even had problems with that, for that "courtesy right" to her land should not have been valid unless she had died before him. I suspect somebody screwed up, but woman had precious few rights as it was, she may not have known enough to protest. Had she fought that, she might have won her case in a higher court, and occurs to me to keep her name in mind if I get to browsing through Appellate books...but somehow, I doubt she did. She may have just wanted him out of the debtors prison, though that is where I suspect he most likely died at this point, since we find no other trace. There are likely many who went that way, in unmarked graves. I've seen other instances of how the sheriff and/or creditors would not release a corpse even, if debts not satisfied.10 | |
