    Jabez Howland. Will proved 5 Nov 1739, pps. 62-63, (first pages of will lost)
    Mentions: ___ [Brother?] Thomas Howland 2/7 of estate. Brother Isaac Martindale of Newport, marriner, 2/7 of estate. Sister Elizabeth Little wife of Otis Little of Pembroke, Mass., gentleman, 1/7 of estate. Brother Isaac Lawton of Bristol and Sarah his wife. Bethia Davis. Patience Howland. [What is left of the will suggests that the 6 legatees are brothers and sisters of the testator, one receiving 2/7 and others 1/7 of the estate.]
    Witnesses: Ezekiel Burroughs, Christopher Lyndzey, and Stephen Wanton.

  3.   Since the will mentions Isaac Martindale, who was husband of sister Mercy Howland, the will was probably dated before 6 Aug 1722 when Mercy married her 2nd husband.
