I have an abstract of William Everit/Everitt's will:
Will# 54 pg.74 WILLIAM EVERIT/EVERITT 25 Feb.1762 June Ct.1762
3 brothers JAMES EVERITT, JOHN EVERITT, and SAMUEL EVERITT all my land and money to be divided equally between them PEGGY FOREMAN daughter of EDWARD FOREMAN cow, calf, etc. Rest of movable estate to be equally divided between my brothers and sisters (names not given)
Wit.: MATTHEW BURNET x his mark, FLORENINIA CARTY, JOHN HEADY
Extrs.: my 3 brothers JAMES, JOHN, and SAMUEL EVERIT
I am interested in knowing more about the MATTHEW BURNET/Burnett, mentioned in this will abstract.
Was he the father of Elizabeth Burnett (b- abt1765- d-1822)?
Elizabeth married John Dunston Hyman Jr. about 1788 in the Martin County area of NC?
