    "Susannah Meadows was the daughter of John Meadows, Junior, who died in Essex County May 14, 1720. Richard Gregory was one of the parties summoned by said Meadows to be "evidence . . . to his last will," which he ver­bally declared.  William Bourn, who is named in the above order of court as "guardn. of Susannah Meadows" was one of the executors named in the will of John Meadows, Junior."

    "I, Richard Grigory in Essex County South Farnham Parish, be­ing very sick and weak in body but of perfect mind and memory ... [notes from probate for Richard Gregory:]  that no admr be granted till ye heir at law be summoned.  It is therefore ordered that Wm Bourn, guardn of Susannah Meadows be summoned to appear at ye next court to declare whether he will admr, on ye esta. of ye sd Richd Gregory, decd. ... How was Susannah Meadows "heir at law" to Richard Gregory? ... William Bourn and Richard Gregory were half-brothers."

    "John Meadows, Junior, probably mar­ried one of the daughters of Richard and Katherine Gregory, and thus a sister of Richard Gregory (died 1725), and that she became the mother of Susannah Meadows, who would thus have been a niece of Richard Gregory's.  It is impossible to see how otherwise Susannah Meadows could have been 'heir at law'  to the said Richard Gregory."
