JAY, MARGARET, 1864, v. 4, p. 441

Personally appeared Naomi Iams [Janes?] of Southampton Twp. who was
present at the death of Margaret Jay which occurred on the Seventh day of
November A.D. 1864 at the house of Thomas Kin*** in said township, where
she resided some three months prior to her death. . .that said Margaret
Jay was seized with sudden and severe illness some nine days before her
death, being on a Saturday morning, and on Monday one week thereafter she
died, and being so seized with severe illness whilst I was supporting her
she called Dr. J. P. Call to her side and desired him and myself to bear
witness that she desired to make disposition of her property, which she
did in these words "I want the charges of my sickness and burial paid and
the remainder of my property I will to Anna Wigfield."  To this
declaration she desired us both to bear witness that the same was her
will, deceased then lingered in severe sickness, until she died.

Sworn 23rd day of November 1864
