I am researching Christianna Wixson, we beleive she is the sister (not daughter as some have stated) of Peleg Wixsom who names her in his will. Anyone one else working on this?

"The last will and testament of Peleg Wixom of the town of Kent Countyy of Putnam and State of New York

I Peleg Wixom considering the uncertainty of this mortal life and being of sound mind and memory blessed be Almighty God for the same, do make and publish this my last will and testament in manner and form following, that is to say: After my debts and funeral expenses are paid I give and bequeath all my Real Estate to July Williams, Margaret Baily, Christina Dakins, Anna Wixom, Zebade Wixom, and David Wixom to be equally devided between them to them and their heirs and assigns forever. Further I give and bequeath to Betsey Haven wife of Elias Haven Six good sheep, and I further order and direct my Executor hereinafter named to purchase and put up to grave a set of decent tombsones, and lastly I do appoint Henry C. Light and Bennatt Boyd Executors to this my last will and testament

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this sixteenth day of August 1849

Peleg X Wixom"

Thanx
Laura
