In the will of Thomas Dunn, written Jan. 5, 1810 proved Nov. 21, 1810, he names his five children as Maria, Robert, Billington, Thomas and Susan wife of Vincent Dyke. It also shows a plat of how his land was divided. If I'm reading it right, 222 Acres to his widow, Lot 1 Maria Dunn 145 acres, Lot 2 Robert Dunn 120 acres, Lot 3 Billington Dunn 85 acres, Lot 4 Thomas Dunn 90 acres and Lot 5 Vincent Dyke 90 acres. The plat is dated Jan. 23, 1811. Could this be the same Billington Dunn that married Harriet Brown? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
