And that wraps it up, have GOT to get back to the early Philadelphia cnty, PA land records abstracts. Again: these wills and others posted are from the book, A Calendar of Delaware Wills, New Castle Cnty, DE 1682-1800, Colonial Dames of Delaware, 1911, reprinted 2002 by Genealogical Publishing Co of Baltimore, MD. And don't forget the wonderful series of 7 books of New Castle cnty, DE land records by Carol Bryant and by Carol Garrett published by WillowBend Books & DelMarVa Roots. They make GREAT Christmas & birthday gifts! A google search on any of the three publishers should bring up their websites. Happy Holidays to one and all.
