1. Jane Kelley, born 25 Apr 1795, Barre, Worcester Co, MA

Notes:

Mary Nurse was identified as a daughter and legatee in the will of Timothy Nurse, of Barre, dated 27 June 1781, allowed 6 Aug 1781.¹

Research Notes:

The following records prove that Timothy Nurse of Barre was the father of Mary Nurse.

Jane, wife of Timothy Nurse, died 26 Oct 1816, age 95, per Barre Vital Records.

On 9 Jan 1819, after Timothy's widow, Jane, died, Timothy's property was divided amongst his heirs, as documented in his probate records, case 43949. By that time, Mary had died; her share of the estate was to be passed on to her heir - a single unnamed daughter to whom about 3 acres of land was bequethed.

Though she wasn't explicitly named in the division of estate, Jane McCullar, the daughter of Mary (Nurse) Kelley, signed the document, proving that she was the heir of her mother, Mary, who in turn was the daughter of Timothy. Jane McCullock's husband, Horace, was likely deceased when Jane put her signature to the division of estate. Note the spelling of the surname McCullock as McCullar, which was a common spelling used by the family in the probate documents.

The profile for Mary Nurss on FamilySearch.org, 10 Oct 2022, identifies her birth date as 16 Mar 1762 in Barre, her death as 14 Mar 1797, no sources cited.
