A question here. If Godfrey Haines' wife d. 1758, then, when you mention the will:
"Amy Lyon left a will in 1782 proved in 1784...To all Christian people to whom the Presents shall come, Know ye, I, EME HAINS, widow and relict of Godfrey Hains, deceased, of Harrison's precinct, Westchester County..and she names several grandchildren."
are 1782 and 1784 the correct dates? Perhaps the Blind Brook Cemetery inscription:
In Memory of Anne wife of Godfrey Hains who departed this Life Feb'ry 19, 1758, aged 68 years.
is correct, and this was Godfrey's first wife, Amy Lyon being his second. I would be interested in the full text of that will, but if it is a bother don't. I hate transcribing myself.
