<< Does anyone have knowledge of this Will, proved 20 Apr 1714? He died 24
Oct 1713 at age 62 and probably buried in Dutch Reformed Church; his
wife was Dutch, Catharine (or Catryna Vonk) Ruard.
I have not learned how to access much of this information yet, and
really appreciate your help.
Thanks to all
