BRITTAN, NATHANIELL, (English,) m. in 1660 Anna da. of Nicholas Stillwell; d. in 1683 on S. I. Resided at one period in a house on the Anthony Jansen from Salee patent, which he built when these premises were owned by his father- in-law, probably cultivating a part of the same. De Bruynne, on the purchase of the patent from Stillwell, was required to satisfy Brittan for his house and outbuildings, which appear to have been located on the N.W. side of the plantation, and on the portion De Bruynne sold to Jan Janse Ver Ryn. In 1660 Brittan bought of Hendrick Cornelise his plantation in Flds of 25 morgens, as per p. 153 of Lib. B of Flh rec. Apl. 3, 1664, he bought of Albert Albertse (Terhune) his N. U. farm, with the meadows thereunto appertaining, which purchase he applied to the court to declare void or to have a deduction made of £100, in consequence of the loss of the meadows by the convention at Hempstead of 1665 (convened after the conquest of the colony by the English) deciding that the meadows in question belonged to Gd. After considerable litigation the court decided that a deduction of 500 gl. wampum value should be made, as per p. 496 of Valentine's Manual of 1852. In 1664 he obtained a patent for a tract of 144 A. on S. I., on which he finally settled. In 1665 he was licensed to keep a tap-house (tavern) in the city of N. Y. By the Stoothoff books it appears that at one period he was a dry-goods dealer. Issue :- William, of S. I. in 1701, b. 1661; Nathaniel, of S.
