NOTES FROM CALENDAR OF WILLS: 1748. Will book G, 115. Miller of St George Hundred. Wife, Elizabeth Thony; William Goforth; dau., Mary Thony; dau., Elizabeth Dushane, Valentine Dushane; John Rees, Lewis Rees and Thomas Rees, sons of my wife's brother, John Rees of Mill Creek Hundred. Exc. dau., Elizabeth Dushane and Mary Thony.

New Castle County, Delaware Probate Records: Misc. I.422
LEWIS REECE. Mill Creek Hd. June 4, 1771. June 17, 1771. Wife, Sarah; sons, John, Thomas, George, Lewis; daus., Cathar, Mary and Elizabeth Reece; uncle, John Daniel Thony. Exc. wife, Sarah; son, John Reece; John Reece (millwright).

Cathy, the two wills definitely put Thomas, Lewis and John together as brothers. Elizabeth Dushane's will refers to the three brother's as sons of her mother's oldest brother, John Rees. I'd love to know who and how the William Rees is connected.
