  	After leaving his widow 20 pounds, he divided his home lot between sons John and Joshua; gave his land in Nut Plains, an area just north of the central village, and several other parcels to John; and gave Joshua the land in Nut Plains that he had purchased from John Goodrich. He gave sons Caleb and Isaac 5 pounds each; daughter Hannah 2 pounds; son Stephen 7 pounds, and his other children -- John, Priscilla and Joel 10 pounds each. He also designated that his youngest sons would receive land on the Great Plain when they reached 21, his daughter, when she reached 18. His oldest child, Nathaniel, preceded him in death.

  Notes	John was one of the original settlers of Guilford, his first home lot being a 1.5 acre parcel on the east side of Crooked Lane, the fourth lot north of Buck Lane. He took the oath of freeman in Guilford on February 14, 1649/1650, a little less than a year after his father did. He became the drummer of the train band, the colony's chief defense unit, and served as sexton for many years, "warning" residents to meetings and church services by beating his drum. His name appears in Guilford's town records, being sued in 1648 by a fellow planter who complained that John's hogs had rooted through his corn, and for reporting to train band practice while intoxicated on January 1, 1656/1657.
