The Patent of Petrus Stuyvesant to Dirck Teunise dated the fourteenth Day of September, One thousand six hundred & sixty two for sundry Parcels of Land lying in and about the Town of Bergen.

GERRIT GERRITSE.


Beging at a Stake (which Stake stands North fifty seven Degrees East One Chain and fifty seven Links from a Stake standing nearly in the Middle of the Square; which last Stake bears North forty seven De- grees East six Chains and fifty three Links from the Easterly Corner of the Church ) And from said first Stake the Place of Beginning runs South forty two Degrees East two Chains and forty three Links to a Stake, Thence North forty eight Degrees East one Chain and forty one Links to a Stake, Thence North forty two Degrees West two Chains and forty three Links to the Street, Then South forty eight Degrees West one Chain and forty one Links along said Street to the Place of Beginning.


It is to be Observ'd, there is an Out-Garden in this Dutch Patent (mark'd on our Map No. 94) which we have run out and survey'd for Guert Coerten under his first Patent from Philip Carteret dated twelfth of May One thousand six hundred and sixty eight, it appearing from the Description in both Patents to be the very same Garden. So that Coerten must have purchased it of Teunise and got it confirm'd to him in his said Patent front Carteret.


There is also a Lott of Upland and Meadow mentioned in this Dutch Patent (mark'd on our Map No. 91) Which we have run out & survey'd for Guert Coerten under his first Patent from Philip Carteret dated twelfth of May, One thousand six hundred and sixty eight, it appearing most probable from the Description in both Patents to be the same Lot. So, that (as well as the Out-Garden) Coerten must also have purchas'd this Lot of Upland and Meadow of Teunise and got it confirm'd in his said first Patent from Carteret. And this is the more probable, as we cou'd find no other Place that wou'd suit the Description given of this Lot, neither does Mr. Van Wagenen the present Owner and Possessor of this Dutch Patent claim, or know anything of such Lot.


The Patent of Philip Carteret to Gerrit Gerritse, 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.
