      62. Stephen^ [11] (Stephen^, Samuel), m. Hannah Pearl, of Boxford, April 11, 1754. As appears from the following and one other deed, he inherited and occupied, as a farmer, his father's real estate in Boxford, adding to the same and selling from it: '* April 13, 1763, Stephen Runnels of Boxford, yeoman, to James Lendall, for £20 148. 2cZ., a certain tract or piece of land in B., 4 J acres, more or less, being one half of what I bought of Daniel Wood." He d. probably in the summer of 1771, aged 42, as we have from the Essex Probate Recs. " Administration of the estate of Stephen Runnels, late of Boxford, deceased, granted to Hannah Runnels, who gave bonds with Samuel Runnels and Richard Pearl, this Sept. 23, 1771." Inventory presented Oct, 24, 1771. Real estate, £257 18«. ; personal property, £122 2^. 7J^d.: Total, £379 15«. 7^(1. His widow did not render her account as
      administratrix till "Mar. 2. 1779," the troublous times of the Revolution, and the absence of her oldest son no doubt preventing.
      At this latter date, " £42 " are added to the above figures as the " Increase " of his estate, bespeaking her good management. At the same time the guardianships of ''Eunice Runnels, a minor,
      aged 18," of " Billey, 16," and of " Hannah, 14," are granted to John Pearl; also, of the younger children, " Phebe aged 12, Esther aged 10, and Sarah aged 8," granted to their mother. Commissioners appointed to divide the property, Apr. 21, 1779 ; who made their report June 8, 1779. She probably d. late in the year 1789,
      as widow Hannah Runnels is among the tax-payers of that and previous years (but not afterwards) on the Boxford Records, where also are found the births of their children.
      63. Abigail [205], b. Aug. 21, 1756.
