• Probate: 13 Oct 1860, Abington, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States

Notes:

Betsy died in 1860 and her estate was probated. This means that she owned real estate separate from her husband. So, we need to find how she acquired it.

There is a Samuel Dyer named as surety. Likely this is one of her brothers or nephews. In any case, he is a link to find out more about her family.

Will:
All personal property and income from real estate and so much of the real estate as may be necessary for his support and comfort during his life to Asaph T. Peterson, her husband. Whatever is left to be divided between the children.

Oldest son, Asaph, appointed to take charge of the property and to be executor.

After the death of Asaph T, the property was sold 18 May 1863. Advertised in the Old Colony Memorial newspaper.

"the house and outbuildings, together with half an acre of land, more or less, situated on Harvard Street,it being the estate of the late Betty Peterson of South Abington, deceased.
