[We’re starting this series as it was never completed on our old blog site.]
This is the first in a series of image from the 1807 estate sale list from Stephen Gibson of Stow, Middlesex County, Massachusetts. We’ll be posting the entire accounting (which is relatively short) and then a transcription of each image.
Inventories and accountings of this type can be a great way to garner insight into an ancestor’s life. Just learning what each item listed was used for can be an educational experience in some cases.
Feel free to comment on any “unusual” items or observations.

Note: This comes from the probate case file of Stephen Gibson in Middlesex County, Massachusetts (case file 9115).
