English Estates of American Settlers by Peter Wilson Coldham - look up request

[RichardAC]

According to Ancestry, the names of Suttenfield, George and Suttenfield, Sarah C p.73 are found in an index of Executors in the above titled book. If at all possible can anyone make a look-up for me for these names. They evidently refer to probate records between 1800-1858.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Don’t know where you are Richard, but in NZ it is possible to order that book as an Interloan at our local library from the National library.  I Presume other countries and libraries have a similar service you could use if no-one on here has a copy.

Unfortunately, I live in the Philippines and we barely have libraries outside of Manila let alone books of old colonialists. Thanks for the kind suggestion anyway.

Oh well. Fingers crossed then!
I looked to see if the university library near me has a copy I could look at but sadly it does not.

So do I understand that Edwin Chadwick was the Executor and he died and Sarah his widow remarried Suttenfield and took over as Executor?
