Friend of Friends Friday – Will of Samuel Fisher
Keeping myself busy today while riding out the blizzard had me browsing through the collections at FamilySearch.org.
I found the will of Samuel Fisher, my 5th great grand uncle, who came from Londonderry, Northern Ireland as an early Scotch-Irish settler of Nutfield (now Derry and Londonderry) New Hampshire. He was born on 29 Jul 1722 and died on 10 Apr 1806.
Following is a transcript and excerpt from his will relating to his indentured servant, Toney:
Item With respect to Toney my Negro boy, Altho I have an indenture from his Father and Mother till he is thirty two years old yet my will is that he should be free when he is twenty one years old, and at that time my son John Fisher should give the said Negro boy one pair of year old Stears.
