I see no mention of an inventory or will in Calendar of NJ Wills for David
STOUT in that time period.

Do you know the parents of David STOUT ? At times people will pass on
material to their grandchildren and state "child of my son/daughter,
such-and-such". Also, is there a will for Freegift STOUT ? Sometimes
they will pass on material to their children and state "which I received
from my father, such-an-such".
