Of course, we can't "always" believe even a will. I have a copy of the will
that is the subject of this abstract and the abstract bequests are correct
to the will. Yet ...

WILLS OF DELAWARE CNTY, PA 1789-1835 by Robert G Swift, p.164
LARKIN, Joseph. Bethel.
May 1, 1821 - Aug 24, 1826
Wife ........., children: John, Joseph, "Nathon", Salkeld, Elizabeth
SHARPLES, Sarah EYRE, wife of *Robert and her six children: Joseph,
William, Nathen, Luis, Elizabeth and Ann. House in New Casel adjoining
Samuel SHAW's. Executors: Sons John, "Nathen" and Salkeld LARKIN Witnesses:
William LARKIN and John LARKIN, Jr. #672
--------------------------------------------------------------
*I have multiple pieces of primary documentation that refute Sarah LARKIN
as md: to Robert EYRE. She was md: to Robert EYRE and Ann PRICE's son, Adam
EYRE. The children of the above Sarah LARKIN are the correct children for
Adam EYRE and Sarah LARKIN.
Thus the reason and need for "more than one" piece of primary
documentation and thus the need to question every piece of secondary
documentation and accept them only as "clues", not gospel.
