they are Part of, and were comprehended in the Original Patent of Wiehaken granted by William Kieft to said Maryn Adrianse dated the Eleventh Day of May, One thousand six hundred and forty seven ; and confirm'd to said Adrianse by Patent from Philip Carteret dated the Eighteenth Day of April One thousand six hundred and seventy, we have included them in our survey of Wiehaken (mark'd on the Map No. 1) under the original Patent to said Maryn Adrianse.


Ude Patent of Philip Carteret to Jan Lubertse dated the twelfth Day of May One thousand six hundred and sixty eight for sundry Parcels of Land lying in and about the Town of Bergen.


Outr Survey whereot shews and we adjudge them to be five Tracts.


The First whereof (mark'd on the Map No. 71)*


Begins at a Stake standing by a Road (which Stake is the Easterly Corner of a Lot in John Berry's Patent mark'd on the Map No. 70) and from said Stake runs North fifty four Degrees and Ten Minutes West, Thirty Chains to a Stake at the Edge of the Meadow, Thence North thirty six Degrees and twenty Minutes East five Chains and seventy four Links along the Meadow Edge to a Stake, Thence South fifty four De- grees and Ten Minutes West, thirty Chains to said Road, Then South thirty six Degrees and twenty Minutes West five Chains and seventy four Links along said Road to the Place of Beginning.


* This patentee was appointed a clerk in the Secretary's office, Sept 8, 1654. N. Y. Col. MSS., v., 371; licensed " to teach reading, writing, and cyphering," in New Amsterdam. Aug. 13, 1658, Ibid, viii., 939 ; and appointed one of the commission- ers to fortify Bergen in 1663. New Neth. Reg., 158.


Lot No. 71 was a double lot, consisting of Nos. 4 and 6 in the original allotment, 31x160 rods = 8 morgens 160 rods.


Lot No. 57 was a wood lot 19x150 rods = 4§ morgens; owned by the heirs of Walter Clendenny in 1840. I think the E. end of this lot was conveyed to Peter Adolph by Arent Toers, June 10, 1754, and by Adolph to Andries Prior, Oct. 27, 1858. Vide Note to Lot 367, p. 194. The lot lies a little S. of the Newark plank road.


Lot No. 119 was meadow No. 3 in the original allotment, 48 rods wide from the woods to the river. This lot was owned by Gysbert Van Blarcom, of Aquacknonk, in 1764. By his will, dated April 14, 1760, proved March 3, 1764, it was given to his son John, who sold it to Michael Vreeland, Sept. 18, 1770. In March, 1784, Helmus Vreeland, of Staten Island, John Vreeland, of Stony Point, Derrick Vreeland and Cornelius Vreeland. of English Neighbourhood, conveyed the same to Michael Vree- land.


Lot No. 158 was between the school-house and Hans Diedrick's, 5x15 rods. This and lot No. 115 were sold by Gysbert Van Blertcum, weaver, (probably a son of the patentee), to Martin Winne, mason, Aug. 20, 1714. He also sold, at the same time, a lot = 90 acres, extending from the road to the Hackensack river. This was Lot No. 71. It lay W. of the town. Winne died seized, July 8, 1737. His son Levinus owned it in 1764, and died May 31, 1802. Vide Note to Van Fleck's Patent, p. 53, and Note to Lot 363, p. 192. The lots seem to have been considerably cut up before 1764. Lot 158 remained in the Winner family until quite a recent period. Robert McFarland was at one time owner, then Daniel Clark, whose widow, Helen, purchased it at Sheriff's sale, Nov., 1837, and sold it to John Romaine, June 7, 1840.
