Her will, dated Dec 1691 said, "I Elizabeth Dickinson widow, of Oyster Bay, being somewhat weakly and sick but perfect memory and understanding. I give to my son Jabez my house and lot furnishings, when he die this to go to my son Joseph. I give to my son Samuel 5 shares of land at the planes plus what I have already given him. I give to my son James two rights of three in the Old Purchase of Oyster Bay on the west side of Nicholas Wright going to Lusum. Five Acres of land at Plains and right of Commonage divided equally between Samuel, Jabez and James. I give to my daughter Hannah my bed, curtains, chests and etc. I give to my grandson Robert or Richard Harcut 2 sheep. All remainder of my estate I give to my three youngest daughters Mehetable, Cheshire (Lydia) and Hannah. Dec 1691." Townsend Memorial, page 54.
Note: In 1683 Queens County was established with Oyster Bay as one of it's towns. In 1898 the western portion of Queens County became a borough of New York City. In 1899 the remaining 70% of Queens County which includes Oyster Bay was renamed Nassua County. The name of the county comes from an old name for Long Island, which was at one time named Nassua, after Dutch William of Nassau, Prince of Orange ( who later became William III of England).
