Although Thomas did not want to refer the matter to arbitrators, it was decided on 28 April 1755 to allow him two more weeks to do so. "But if Thomas Swayne refuse or neglect to appoint men and enter into Bonds, longer than two weeks, Then this meeting gives liberty to William Pennell and Isaac Weaver to proceed to the tryal of the case by Law, as they may be advised, But withall requires the friends so concerned to behave towards each other as friends, and in the moderation becoming Brethren proceed in the case to the last."9 |

| Land Records | 1774 | In 1774, William had 750 acres, grist and saw mills, 5 servants, 11 horses, 22 cattle and 30 sheep.2 |
| Death* | 5 September 1783 | He died on 5 September 1783, probably at Middletown at age 57.10 |
| Estate and Land* | | He had died intestate possessed of all the land he had owned in 1774, together with 100 acres in Aston and the 265 acres his wife had inherited in Fallowfield, all of which were appraised at £6754 : 2: 9.2 |

Neither the sisters nor their children were named. The will gave the children 100 pounds sterling to be equally divided between them on consideration of their repaying what any of them remained indebted to Ebenezer. His will also bequeathed the several articles of clothes, monies and plate, contained in a paper enclosed with his will, to the several relations of his deceased wife that had not already been distributed to them.6 |

Margery Pepperell1
b. 15 September 1689, d. July 1769
| Birth* | 15 September 1689 | Margery Pepperell was born in 15 September 1689 in Kittery Point, York County, Maine.1,3 |
| Marriage* | 14 November 1706 | She married first Pelatiah Whittemore, son of John Whittemore and Mary Miller, on 14 November 1706 in Kittery Point, York County, Maine.3,4,5 |
| Biographical Info* | 31 December 1723 | Margery's husband Pelatiah Whittemore was a brilliant young man who married into the leading family of Maine, and very early in life became an officer in the Army. He was the first Whittemore to be termed a "gentleman", and had every prospect of an eminently successful career. Instead, the records show that what happened is just one more instance of a promising life ruined by excessive drinking. In Pelatiah's case, it forced his lovely wife to leave him, taking their children and returning to her family in Kittery Point, Maine. The unfortunate Pelatiah remained in Boston where the court records show many lawsuits for debt against him. From a "gentleman" and "merchant", his last court case, on 31 December 1723, called him an "accountant", and he was sent to debtor's prison on complaint of a tavern-keeper.3 |
| (Wife) Death | 21 October 1724 | Margery became a widow when Pelatiah Whittemore died on 21 October 1724.3,6 |
| Marriage* | 3 September 1730 | She married second Elihu Gunnison on 3 September 1730.7,8,1 |
| Death* | July 1769 | She died in July 1769 in Kittery Point, Maine, at age 79.3 |

Mary Pepperell1
b. 5 September 1685, d. 18 April 1766
| Birth* | 5 September 1685 | Mary Pepperell was born on 5 September 1685 in Kittery Point, York County, Maine.2 |
| Marriage* | 4 September 1702 | She married first Honorable John Frost, son of Major Charles Frost and Mary Bolles, on 4 September 1702.1,2,3 |
| Residence* | | Mary and Honorable John Frost lived in New Castle, Rockingham County, New Hampshire.1,2 |
| Children* | | Madam Mary (Pepperell) Frost and the Honorable John Frost had seventeen children together, eleven of whom arrived at maturity.4,5 |
| (Wife) Death | 25 February 1732 | Mary became a widow when Honorable John Frost died on 25 February 1732.1,3 |
| Marriage* | 12 August 1745 | She married second, as his third wife, Reverend Benjamin Colman, son of William Colman and Elizabeth __?__, on 12 August 1745 in Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England). Their marriage ceremony was performed by Reverend Joseph Sewall.1,3 |
| (Wife) Will | 25 March 1747 | Calling her his most virtuous, loving and beloved wife, Mary Colman was named as a beneficiary in the will of her husband the Reverend Benjamin Colman dated 25 March 1747 in Boston. His will specified that their Marriage Articles he had agreed to be made good, and that at the end of two years after his death his Executors cause £500 more in Bills of Credit, old tenor, of the Province of Massachusetts Bay be paid to her. He instructed also that the pair of silver candlesticks with the fine snuff dish and snuff for it, which he gave her as a gift upon their marriage, be included within the £500. He also gave gifts of £10 each to the sons and daughters of his beloved wife Mary in lieu of one of his rings.6 |
| (Widow) Codicil | 28 August 1747 | Mary's husband, the Reverend Benjamin Colman, wrote a codicil to his will on 28 August 1747 in Boston and died the next day before he could give it, as he had planned, to one of his Executors, John Phillips Esq. of Boston, described as a worthy Deacon of the Church in Brattle Street. The codicil first confirmed his will and testament in its entirety, except for the addition written in the codicil which stated that if either his honored friend John Phillips, Esq. or his beloved nephew Benjamin Colman of Boston, merchant, were to take upon them the trust and trouble of Executor to his will with the necessary care of the education of his grandson John Dennie, that £200 out of his estate should be allowed to him for the care and his great kindness. The codicil was not witnessed.
From a letter written on 7 Sep 1747 by Benjamin's widow Mary Colman and included in the probate packet, we learned that Benjamin had completed writing his codicil in the evening, and put it in his desk drawer for the night. Mary wrote in her letter to Judge Edward Hutchinson that Benjamin had told her he was thinking possibly of adding something more, and would complete it in the morning and then deliver it to Deacon John Phillips. Her letter stated that, between the hours of three and five in the morning of the 29th August, her dear husband, Dr. Benjamin Colman, told her that if he didn't have the opportunity to finish it, she should submit it to the court and that the court would be able to tell it was written in Benjamin's own hand and signed with his signature.6 |
| (Wife) Death | 29 August 1747 | Mary became a widow for the second time when Reverend Benjamin Colman died on 29 August 1747.7 |
| Marriage* | 6 October 1748 | She married third, as his third wife, Reverend Benjamin Prescott, son of Captain Jonathan Prescott and Elizabeth Hoar, on 6 October 1748 in Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England).2,8,9 |
| Death* | 18 April 1766 | She died on 18 April 1766 in Danvers, Essex County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England), at age 80.2,3 |
