Note: It has been reported that Joseph received 23 Acers of Land at the west end of the Mayhew farm from his father-in-law and this became the base for the family farm + 200 Acres, if Joseph received one fifth of his father’s estate. We estimate that each son received about 75 Acers of Land, so in total about 225
