    'SANFORD, Ezekiel, late of ____, Jan 2, 1683, letters of administration on his estate granted to his widow, page 187.
    Inventory taken, Jan 2, 1683, by James Bennet, Samuel Moorehouse, and John Gruman, and filed Jan. 2, 1683.
    Jan 2, 1683, estate ordered distributed to his widow and children, no names, page 97.
    Nov. 1683, estate distributed to his widow and Children Ezeckiel, Thomas, Sarah, Mary, Rebecca, Martha, and Elizabeth, overseers Samuel Moorehouse, Sr., and John Gruman, page 187.'

    These dates would suggest that he died late 1682, and the inventory was taken Jan 1682/3.
