May 9, 1791: Order for administration of estate by son Henry Jr. entered by Pomfret, Windham, CT Probate Court. (Bk, pg 238-240)
Sept. 2, 1791: Heirs named in distribution: Henry, eldest son; Nathaniel, 2nd son; John, 3rd son; Ichabod, 4th son; heirs of Jacob, 5th son; Mary, eldest daughter; Abigail, 2nd daughter; and heirs of Huldah, 3rd daughter.
