The will is hard to read in some places. It looks like it was recorded January 17th 1694. It does not indicate, as far as I can tell, whether Mary was alive at that time. It states "I give and bequeath unto my daughter Mary Dun alias Mary Bonham wife to Hezekiah Bonham and also my said wife to give to my daughters Elizabeth Dun and Martha Dun upon the day of their marriage........." You would assume by the language that she was alive as he was making a provision for her and her sisters. It says nothing about her being the deceased wife of Hezekiah Bonham. Hope this helps.
