In it he mentioned his son, Parke, to whom he gave a grist-mill with dwelling house and lands adjoining, north of the county road, land near the New London ferry, and several other parcels. To his son, Ebenezer, he gave land adjoining the farm that he had already given him; also
"my cloak & my Laced hat, with my smallest Silver hilted sword, & my
new great Bible and my watch and my old carbine."
To his son, Simeon, he gave certain lands and

Latham, Dorothy Morgan, Amy, and Unis. No mention is made of a wife; he probably did not marry a second time (New London Wills, F: 321).
In his Averys of Groton, page 31, Mr. Sweet states that Ebenezer Avery had a second wife, Lucy Morgan. This is a mistake. William Morgan, in his will, stated that his granddaughter, Lucy, married Ebenezer Avery, but this granddaughter was Lucy Davis, the daughter of his daughter, Margaret. This Lucy Davis married Ebenezer Avery, No. 70, below mentioned. Ebenezer4 Avery d. July 19, 1752, at Groton.
