I couldn't figure out how to go from a .jpg file to the board without an attachment, so I'm typing it. If anyone would like a copy, please just ask...Teri Eunis Seeley's Will probate dated 26 Apr 1770 I Eunis Seeley of Woodbury Clove New Cornwall Precinct Orange County and Province of New York, widow, being thro' the abundant mercy and goodness of God, tho' weak in body, yet of a sound and perfect understanding and memory, do constitute this my last will and testament, and desire it may be received by all as such. First I most humbly bequeath my soul to God my maker, beseeching his most gracious acceptance of it, through the all-sufficient merits and meditation of my most compassionate redeemer Jesus Christ, who gave himself to be an atonement for my sins (and the sins of the world) and is able to save, to the uttermost, all that came unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them and who, I trust, will not reject me, a returning penitent sinner when I come to Him for mercy; in this hope and confidence I render up my soul with comfort, humbly beseeching the most blessed and glorious trinity, one God most holy, most merciful and gracious, to prepare me for the time of my dissolution, and then to take me to himself into that peace and rest, and incomparable felicity, which He has prepared for all that love and fear His holy name, Amen, blessed be God. I give my body to the earth from whence it was taken, in full assurance of it's Resurrection from thence at the Last Day.
