One of the parcels of land noted in Benjamin Sweet's will was bordered south on land of John Gardner. (EG Probate Records, Book 4, p. 128-131). It would be really helpful if everyone would refer to their sources when posting information to the list. I know it's time consuming, but it enables everyone to follow up to their own satisfaction on items posted. Thanks! Cyndi
