Will of Nicholas Clare of St John, Southwark merchant made 03/07/1741. He left his niece Susanna Lee half his stock of wines and the whole of his stock of bottles and equipment belonging to his wine trade. He left her husband Edward Lee his 1/4th share in the ship Elizabeth of which he [Lee] was master, on condition that Susanna and Edward Lee provide a comfortable maintenance to Clare's sister Ruth Paul. He left to his nephew Edward Paul his 1/8th share of the ship John of which Edward Paul was master. He left personal effects to a range of relatives, £100 and £25 for mourning to his brother John and £50 to his sister Frances Hill. He left £20 to the poor of the Trinity Corporation of which he was a member, a legacy revoked in a codicil without explanation, and £10 to the Society of Masters of Merchant Ships meeting at the Well in Eastcheap for the widows of masters now or late of the Society.
