THE MCCREADY FAMILY

The earliest record we have found for this family is a Charles McCrady, yeoman of New Rochell, Westcheter Co., NY who wrote his will 9 Oct. 1754, proved 30 Nov. 1754. It is abstracted as follows: "In the name of God, Amen. I Charles McCrady, of New Rochelle, yeoman, being weak in body. "As to my burial, I desire it may be decent, at the discretion of my executors." I leave to my wife "this house wherein I now dwell, with all the furniture, and the land and tenements that lie round it, during her widowhood, and after she had done with it, then to my sons James and Charles, that is, if my executors think that my son Charles will be likely to make a good use of it. But if they think he will spend it, then my son Charles's eldest son is to have it." But if he should have no son, then my son James is to have it. I leave my daughter Ann L20, to be paid by whoever has the place. My executors are to sell a pair of oxen, 2 cows, six acres of wheat now on the ground, and 6 or 8 hogs, to pa debts. I leave to my wife the old grey mare and the fat cow and 11 hogs. To my dau. Molly a horse. To my grand-son Charles Correy, a young steer. to my son Charles all farming tackling, and my saddle and bridle. I make my wife and my son in law George Correy, and my friend, Joseph Haim, executors. Susannah and Sarah Hunt and Robert Graham witnessed the will.
