• Notes

  )Will proved after 1789, per Valentine, p ? 2)"He sold the Tiverton farm to his brother, but the deed whose wording intimates that the wife signed the deed, was not actually signed by herer. Most of the children were born in Tiverton, but it is inferred that the mother died before the removal (to Queensbury) William settled on the Half Way Brook not so far west of Glen Falls, NY. William and his son Jonathan held each 125 acreres of land, which was released from Quit Rents after the Revolutionary War, because of their losses at the hands of the Indians and the Tories; all improvements having been burned. Both farms were on Lot Eleven. Local records are very few, for this reason: But at the old Salem of that county, high among its snowy hills, in midwinter, I was so fortunate as to find the will of this William. In Tiverton I found his yellowed deed of sale." Valentine, p177-8. 3)"Most of the children" per Valentine, suggests there were more than the three sons, which would be more ordinary. I suppose there were daughters. PLT. 4)An extract of William's will, total text in Valentine, p123: Date 2 Mar 1789, William, of Queensbury. . I give 100 acres each to "two" beloved sons Jonathan and James. . and to son Thomas the obligations (to William) of Augustus Odle . . give to wife all remaining part of my farm, untill my beloved son, William becomes of lawful age, later to be equally diviided between her and William(when he comes of age). Unless she remarries, in which case whole remaining farm goes to William. Appoint wife Lois Tripp and George Southwick executors. David, Rachel and Philip Ferriss, witnesses. 3) Census, 1800, age "over 45", per PLT ARCHIVES, V16, CENSUS, p23. 4)On list of voters 2May1786,p391,per History of Warren Co,NY,w/ notes now in PLT Archives,V17. On p394, he is listed, 1Apr1790, as pleading "inability to pay Quit Rents due to losses during war". 125 Acres, Lot #11. 5)1Apr1790, William "paid some money",per page 506 of History of Queensbury (Washington Co, NY), by Holden, per PLT research of 24Feb1967, now in PLT ARCHIVES, V17. On p 503, there was an election that references his name. 6)William lived on 86 acres of land, worth $15, with house not finished but worth $125, 1785-1790, per p327, History of Glens Fally, by Hyde, 1936, PLT ARCHIVES, V17.
