Family:Samuel Walker and Ann Sheldon (1)

"Ann Walker formerly Relict of After [i.e., Arthur] Alger Claimes a Tract of Land at Black point at the mouth of the River Called Blew point River, where the River Doth part and So bounded up along w'th a River Called Awascoage and so up Three Score Poles aboue ye ffalls on ye one Side and on the other Side up along w'th the Norther most River that turneth with the great hill of Abra Jocelin and goeth Northward bounding from ye head of that River South West, and so Toy'e aforewsd bounds namely Three Score poles aboue ye falls, bought of Uphannun 19 : Septemb'r : 1659 : by After Alger and giuen to his wife Ann Alger by his Last will & Testn't Dat'd 1675."

"Samuel Walker attested the deed mentioned above, p. 158, of Anne Alger to her cousins John and Abraham Roberts, dated at Marblehead 1676; and afterwards married her."
[Note, the deed referred to is clearly a reference to a deed mentioned on p. 156 (since nothing relevant is found on p. 158): "The widow of Arthur Augur removed to Marblehead, Mass., where she executed a deed of a piece of land lying at Black-point, which had been granted to her father, Giles Roberts, by Mr. Henry Jocelyn; the deed is dated Aug. 1676." See the probate of Arthur Alger. The estate paid the children of Ann's brother-in-law Giles Roberts money, and the land was passed onto to Ann by her husband's will. Giles was not her father, but married her sister, so the children of Giles were her nephews (cousins in colonial parlance).]
