1st SOURCE:
[1517.] JOHN4 PECK, son of Hezekiah,3 remained upon the homestead with his brother Hezekiah. A division of the lands left them by their father was made March 14, 1729-30 (T.Rec., B. 19, p. 343). His will is dated March 14, 1729-30 (T. Rec., B. 6, p. 384).

He gives to Rebecca his wife, whom he makes his executrix, all his outlands and common rights, with all his household goods and movables, to enable her to provide for his child or children. He gives to his beloved son John, two-thirds of his homestead lands, and house, and the other third part to his child, then unborn, freely to possess, enjoy, etc. (T. Rec., B. 6, p 384).

The following is from his tombstone:

He married Rebecca Richardson, May 26, 1724. She survived him, and afterwards, I am told, married a man by the name of Jones.
