Notes for N
AOMI BARTON:
First marriage: Naomi married Ebeneezer, issue 2 children (?)
In her mother's will, Naomi has 3 children, two of whom have the last name, Carr, and one who has the last name, Slocum. There appear to be hard feelings between Naomi's mother, Susannah, and Edward Carr. Susannah mentions money left to Naomi by her father but apparently held by Edward. In essence, Susannah says "good luck in getting it away from him!"

Second Marriage: Edward Carr

AOMI BARTON and EBENEEZER SLOCUM is:
  i.   RUTH7 SLOCUM.
  Notes for RUTH SLOCUM:
Apparently there was some trouble over 50 L (pounds) that Ruth's father Ebeneezer had willed to her. He evidently had custody of the money until she reached the age of eighteen, but there was mention in her grandmother Susannah Barton's will that she was due the money if she could collect it from her step-father.
