Middlesex County Probate Docket #36764 microfilmed by the New England Historic
Genealogical Society, but it appears that one page of the will was missed in
the microfilming. Edward Hyde, the executor, was called “son in law” in Isaac
Lum’s will, but his wife was not named, and he was not left any part of the
estate, so he was probably not actually a son-in-law, but may have been a
nephew of his wife.
