The partition was not formal. George died seized of part, devising the same to his children. His heirs divided the same into three parts, each containing ten acres and sixty-six one-hundredths of an acre ; the north third was conveyed to Jacob Van Horne (?) ; the middle third to Thomas McDonald June 15, 1832 ; the southerly third to John Carragan. McDonald conveyed part of his third to Sebastian Jaclard July 17, 1854. Jaclard died seized, and his executors conveyed to Adele Buchanan Oct. 19, 1858.
