General Notes:
WILL ROBERT FENN of Wapping, mariner, 1 June 1655, proved London 4 January 1655. I give and bequeath unto Mary my beloved wife all that estate which I had in marriage with her as is in New England in the parts beyond the seas. To my loving friend Master Thomas Bell merchant twenty pounds of lawful money of England and to Susan his wife ten pounds of like money. To my loving friend Robert Leuett, woodmonger, and Penelope his wife twenty shillings apiece to buy each of them a ring to wear in my remembrance. To Thomas Hawkins, my wife's son by Thomas Hawkins her former husband, ten pounds, and to Abigail and Hannah, her daughters, five pounds apiece. To Elizabeth, Mary and Sarah, her daughters by her said former husband who (are?) now married, twenty shillings apiece. The rest to be divided into five parts, one part whereof I give to the said Mary, my wife, and the other four fifth parts to my children, Sampson, Robert, Deborah and Elizabeth Fenn equally, provided that if my wife shall be with child by me and such child shall be born alive then my estate shall be divided into six equal parts &c. My wife Mary and Master Thomas Bell to be sole executors. Berkley, 18. Robert Fenn, a captain from London, by wife Deborah from the church at Salem (Mass., A.D. 1639), had Robert, baptized June 16, 1644; Deborah, born Jan. 15, 1645-6. Is seems from the preceding will of John Andrewes of Barbados, that his wife Deborah was his sister. After the death of his wife Deborah, he married, June 26, 1654, Mary, widow of Capt. Thomas Hawkins of Boston. She survived him and married, Feb. 27, 1661-2, Henry Shrimpton. See Savages's Genealogic Dictionary, vol. 2, p. 152. Genealogical Gleanings in England Vol I Ancestry
