HISTORICAL MISCELLANY


the one referred to in the previous deed given by Simeon Babcock, although of an earlier date, and was deeded by John White, "sawyer," and Mary, his wife, to Jonathan Youmans, June 3, 1813.


John White, "sawyer," and Mary, his wife, convey, at this same time, another tract of land to Jonathan Youmans, of five acres, which adjoined the first, to which he claimed title by deed of sale from Thomas White, dated Mch. 20, 1797, but which is not on record. The beginning point of this five acre tract was "in the Forge Pond, forty- four links north of the middle of the bridge that crosses the flood gates;" thence the line ran to "a small run or swamp that puts into Jumping Brook," and down the swamp to the brook. Two of the courses, together with their distances, coincide with what can be found in a deed for one hundred and eighty-six acres, from Thomas Stillwell and Phebe, his wife, to Abraham Van Dyke, he claiming title by virtue of a deed which, likewise, is unrecorded, from Thomas White, (63). This tract is described as being in Shrewsbury, on the east side of Jumping Brook, beginning "about seven chains below the saw mill of John White's and Daniel White's on Jumping Brook, at the mouth of a small run that empties in said brook, it being the corner of John White's lot that he purchased of Thomas White." It may be that Daniel White in the above description is a mistake for Amos White, for, once in the body of the deed there is certainly such a mistake made, and twice the name Amos is used properly.


1804, Mch. 31. Peter Knott and Lydia, his wife, convey fourteen and one-quarter acres of land, at Poplar Swamp, to John White and Jacob White; grantors claiming title by virtue of a deed from Anthony Woolley and Sarah, his wife, dated, April 1790.


1812, May II. John T. White (112) and Mary, his wife, convey fifty-one acres of land to John White, "sawyer," which John White "sawyer," deeds to Thomas Rosell, Dec. 12, 1816.


1813, Apr. 5. John White, "sawyer," and Mary, his wife, convey a part of the tract purchased of Peter Knott, to Hendrick White.


1816, 2mo., (Feb.) 28. Will of Jacob White, of Poplar; proved Jan. 31, 1817. Made mention of his wife, Mary, and appointed Jacob Woolley and Daniel Williams as his executors. Witnessed by John W. Woolley, Edmund Robinson and John Woolley, Jr. 1822, January Term of the Orphans Court. Settlement of the account of Jacob Woolley and Daniel Williams, executors of the estate of Jacob White, deceased.


1832, Mch. 5. Mary White, widow of Jacob White, sells the balance of the Knott tract of land to Elias Truax, who had previously come into possession of the part pur- chased by Hendrick White.
