18 Nov 1708: Edward Barrett of Cambridge Cordwainder, Samuel Barrett and his wife Sarah Shopkeeper, Bartholomew Barratt Cooper and his wife Rebecca, John Ballentine Jun'r Merch't & his wife Mary, Gyles Roberts Cordwinder and his wife Margarett, Lydia Davis Widow of Boston for £40 convey to William Barrett of Cambridge Taylor one house in Cambridge with land thereunto belonging excepting his own share formerly the estate of Mr William Barratt late of Cambridge Taylor Deces'd.
[Note: Bartholomew Barrett did not sign the deed, but his wife Rebecca did. See the father's probate: the distribution does not mention the heirs of Lydia Ballentine, so this deed appears to confirm her relationship to William through the involvement of her son John.]
