The will of "Joseph Burgess of Rochester", dated 5 Aug 1695, probated 7 Oct 1695, mentions "my dear and loving wife Patience Burgess to be my executrix", "my son, Benjamin Burgess", "my daughter Rebecca Ross", "my daughter Dorrity Clifton", "my son Ichabod Burgess", "my trusty and well beloved friends, Captain Seth Pope, Thomas Tapper and Jacob Burgess, all these three, to act as overseers". [Both sons mentioned as under the age of twenty-one.]
