Will proved 13 Jul 1759, names wife Hannah, late son's children, son Joseph Field of Boston [not clear from abstract given if Joseph is meant to be the late son just mentioned, p. 960 Joseph is credited with son b. 1765], heirs of late son Ebenezar Field of Boston [same as one previous mentioned? note: p. 960 Ebenezer's will said to be dated 1779?], sons Robert [of Western, executor] and James, daughter Mary Vose, heirs of daughter Anna Atherton.
[Note: neither birth nor death record found, and confusion over will abstract does not do much to offset Peirce's somewhat marginal reputation.]
