On Oct. 15, 1650, the widow, Margery, petitioned for an abatement of the portions given by the estate of Christopher Osgood, to the eldest daughter, second daughter, eldest son, who was to have the house and land, and that to pay to the two younger children, when 18 years of age, because the property did not prove sufficient. The petition was recorded on Dec. 15, 1650.
Her mother left her 5 pounds in her will which was to be paid to her by her brother Thomas of Newbury one year after her mother's death.
