Notes

  • Note*: The 1767 will of Jacob Hill of District township Berks County left to dau. Catherine, wife of husband Mathew Teeter, the house and 30 acres of land they now live on, at £78.

    Furthermore the will left to his five daughters, viz, Catherine, Mary, Elizabeth, Hannah and Susanna, £1000 to be evenly divided, one half at his wife's decease. The first installment of £100 each was paid according to the 1773 account. But the daughters and their husbands petitioned in 1787 for the second installment; both trustees had died.

    The petition names Dietrich Mathew & Catharine his wife.1,3
