John Woodruff's will, which is no longer in the Probate records, was dated 3 April 1767 and proven on 3rd March 1768. Interesting tidbit: Item 15 states: "...that if either of my children shall try to make disturbance amongst the brothers and sisters, or to break my will, that he or she shall be cut off from all that I give, only 5 shillings as the law directs". In the probate record the only document now on file is the inventory. However, the Baldwin Genealogy, by Charles A. Baldwin, M. A., (p. 53), gives a synopsis of the will of Capt. John Woodruff of Milford, dated Apr. 3, 1767, proved 3rd Monday of March 1768; children, John Woodruff, eldest son; Samuel, 2nd; Enoch; Matthew; Isaac; wife, Sarah; children again, Jonah; Benjamin; Hannah, wife of Stephen Platt; Abigail, wife of "Fitch Kimberly"; Sarah Woodruff; Susannah Woodruff; Jerusha Woodruff. The son David is not mentioned in this abstract, but his name might have been in the original document.
