" This lot was adjudged to Pieter Merselis, p. 161. It was inherited by Merselis Merselis. By his will, dated March 15, 1799, proved Dec. 5, 1800, he gave the S. W. half to his son John, who sold to Merselis Merselis Aug. 17, 1801, who sold to John and Jacob Merselis May 26, 1807, who sold to Henry Van Glahn June 12, 1807. John Merselis gave to John J. Van Horne a deed for this half May 21, 1839. The N. E. half went to John's sisters, Jannetje, wife of Walter Clendenny, and Anne, wife of Josiah Hornblower. This half seems to have been sold to William Dally and others. Dally sold to John Woolmington. I am not certain as to correctness of what is above said concerning the S. W. half. It seems by Douglass' Map to have been in Mrs. Parks, the daughter of John Merselis, in 1840. It is either on this half, or on the Church Lot No. 176, that Glahnville now is.
