On 20 March 1747, Thomas Forbush, gentleman of Westborough, sold three tracts of land in Westborough for £120 in bills of credit to David Bathrick, joyner of Westborough[3]. The tracts of land totaled ten and a half acres in Westborough; eight acres bounded southerly by land of Thomas Forbush, Daniel Warren, on a highway, westerly by Thomas Forbush; two acres are on Chaney's plain, bounded southerly by a highway, northerly and westerly by Thomas Forbush; also one acre on the east end of Chaney's plain, bounded southerly by a highway, northerly on Cedar Swamp, and easterly by Daniel Warren. The deed was recorded on 10 May 1748.
David Bathrick died at age 72 on 4 August 1794 in Westborough[4-5]. There is no known burial location or extant gravestone.
David Bathrick died intestate and his estate papers are in Worcester County Probate Records, in estate file 4414[6]. The estate papers included:
* On 8 September 1794, Solomon Bathrick, Jonathan Bathrick and David Batherick posted £500 bond, and Solomon Bathrick was appointed administrator of the estate by the probate court judge.
* An inventory of the estate was taken by Nathan Fisher, Thomas Andrews and Samuel Forbush on 24 September 1794. There was no real estate (apparently, it had been sold or given to his children over time). The personal inventory totaled £8-9-7.
* On 7 October, Solomon Bathrick charged himself with the inventory and paid debts, costs and charges, and £5-5-7 was left. The probate court awarded the balance to the widow, Lydia Bathrick.
