[p. 13] William Downing appointed Edward Clark executor of his will, naming his daughter, Ruth Clark, as sole heir 6 DEC 1694. [p. 13] Edward Weatherstone was a witness to this will. William Downing died in 1698; his widow, Elizabeth, presented what she called a newer version of his will to the Middlesex Co. court; but the court ruled the will presented by Edward and proven by witness Edward Weatherstone was more acceptable. Edward Clark was appointed executor of William Downing's will NOV 1698.
