The Probate Records of New London County, Connecticut; "Aug 10, 1714. Mary Spicer widow and relict of Peter Spicer late of New London deceased and administratrix of his Estate appeared at this Court and made an addition to the inventory of the said Estate of a lott of land in the plantation given the Volunteers and the other inventoried Estate having been already distributed this Court distributes the said lott as followeth viz: one third part thereof to the widow during her natural life, to the Eldest son a double portion thereof and to the other nine children & ye representatives of one that is deceased equal portions.
Receipt of Mary Spicer to her Son Edward Spicer;
"I Mary Spicer Widow to Peter Spicer formerly of New London, Deceased have had sixty six pounds six shillings in moveables out of the Estate of the s'd Peter Spicer which is in full of what the Court ordered for me and I do hereby acquit my son Edward Spicer his heirs of any further demand on acct of that Estate in witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand the 9th day of Decmbr 1730.
Wit: her

Mary M Spicer
John Spicer mark
The above receipt seems to indicate that Edward Spicer was not feeling in best of health and wished to make sure that no claims would be made on his heirs. It is probable he died in 1731. His [Page 241] mother Mary (Busecot) Spicer must have been quite aged at this date."
"Sept 13, 1715. Mary Spicer widow of Peter Spicer late of New London deceased having put the Estate into the hands of her eldest son Edward to pay his brothers and sisters as they come of age said Edward has this day presented in Court Receipts under the hands of his s'd brothers and sisters for their portion to full satisfaction the Court does thereupon order a quietus off to the s'd administrator."

The date of this receipt and that of a similar receipt Jabez wrote to Edward do not coincide. Mary dated her receipt December 1730, while her son Jabez's receipt is dated May 1715. A similar receipt to Edward regarding his share of Peter's estate is dated May 1715. Yet Peter is said to have died in 1694.
In an old book now kept in the county clerk's office at Norwich, Ct, is recorded the distribution of Peter Spicer's estate as follows: "At a Court of Probate held Sept. 18, 1694. The inventory of the estate of Peter Spicer deceased was exhibited in Court was proved accepted and ordered to be recorded and this Court grants power of administration to the widow and makes distribution as followeth for the widow thirty six pounds with her thirds of the moveables. To the eldest son Edward double portion 15 pounds 10 shilling and to the rest of the children being ten in number 7 pounds 15 shilling apiece and if any of the children die before they come of age to receive their portion then their part to be equally divided amonst the survivors;" Capt. Brewster & Thomas Rose were appointed overseers.
Note: Warwick, RI: "Peter Spicer of Mohegan or now Norridge in the Collony of Conticott and Mary Busecot of the town of Warwick in ye Collony of Rhode Island were married Dec 15, 1670" 2
Married: 15 DEC 1670 in Warwick, RI
Note:
The marriage of Peter Spicer and Mary, daughter of Peter and Mary (___) Busecot, is recorded in Warwick, R I as follows: "Peter Spicer of Mohegan or now Norridge in the Collony of Conticott and Mary Busecot of the town of Warwick in ye Collony of Rhode Island were married Dec 15, 1670." Eleven children were born to them, whose names are recorded in a Bible formerly owned by Abel Spicer. The birth dates were not given and can only be conjectured from the dates of marriages known.
