Dear Bill,
We found the will for James Weems d. 1723 in New York City!
The archivist was so excited that she found it, she actually called me! She's never been asked to find anything from that time period before and she was amazed that they actually had it.
She found the original will and the one that was recorded int he Liber books. She said originally the name was spelled Wemyss, which tells me he is related to the Scottish Weymss line from Scotland, a direct line into Sinclair and all the rest!
YES!!! She's sending it by email. I'm so excited!
Diana
