ADS, NjP: De Coppet Collection. The document was endorsed: “1st Division of part of my decd Brothr Lawrences Negroes among myself & youngr Brothers.” It was initialed “GW,” with an addition of four figures on the verso. This document was drawn up to divide “the Estates part” of the Memorandum among the five surviving brothers of Lawrence Washington. While all of the names in the main columns appear in the “Estates part” of the 10 Dec. division, the names added next to each column are drawn from both halves of the estate, and may have been added later.
