  Rebecka Dickinson (footnote 8), in naming her heirs, in all likelihood
  simply listed her children in order of birth: SARAH DANIEL, ELIZABETH
  FUTTRELL, DANI EL DICKINSON, REBECKA NEWSOM, JOHN  DICKINSON, CHARITY
  DICKINSON, DAVID DICKIN SON, MARY DICKINSON, AND ISAAC DICKINSON.
  John Dickinson (footnote 8) separate s the sons from the daughters while
  maintaining the same sequence as Rebecka w ithin each sex. Grimes in his
  "Abstracts of N.C. Wills omitted Daniel from his abstract of Rebecka's
  will causing Oleta (Dickinson) to wonder if Daniel were a stepson. It is
  paramount to see original documents if at all possible.
