28 Mar 1721: Bond of Mary Collins Widow of Salem as administratrix of Adoniram Collins Late of Salem Innholder Deceased.
30 Mar 1721: Inventory of Mr Adoniram Collins Late of Salem Deces'd: £311-13-6, by Joseph [Mckeem?], Josiah Willard.
2 Aug 1722: Account of adm'o of Adoniram Collins, allowed. distribution to Widow, [Many? Marry?] [double share, i.e., eldest son? Adoniran should be eldest son], Adoniram, James, John, Mary.
[Note: Perhaps the double share is attached to the wrong person and the name represents Hannah (though appears to start with an 'M'), who is older than Adoniram but since not a son should not have received a double share. On the other hand the marriage in 1701 would allow for the birth of a son in 1702 without impacting Hannah's birth Feb 1703/04. Not clear in that case what the name is, no record of such a child is found at birth or later, and Hannah would have had to have died since then she is not represented. Perley, above, does not address this problem, but has no marriage or other outcome shown for Hannah.]
