Woodward, Phebe Hannah Perrine, Edward P. Woodward, Annie C. Worden, Ada M. Schroeder, William L. Woodward and Lillie May E. Frake. To Mrs. Frake she also left her house and lot on Leighton avenue at Red Bank provided she pay the interest on the mortgage on it, an organ, sewing machine, feather bed, marble top stand, four rocking chairs, dining table, six black walnut chairs, picture, castor and a half a dozen each table spoons, knives and forks.
