East New Jersey Land Records 1702-1717 (Books H I and Little K)

<p>This series covers the counties of Essex Middlesex Monmouth and Somerset. However some Bergen Co. deeds are recorded while others make references to Bergen Co. names within the deed's description. Hutchinson's latest volume also includes nineteen wills five intestate filings and one declaration of intention to marry. In addition the author has also added an addendum - a reprint of "A Further Account of New Jersey In an Abstract of LETTERS Lately Writ from thence By Several Inhabitants there Resident" (London 1676). The period of this latest book 1702 to 1717 is the general period of recording not the date of the actual transaction (land sales conveyances mortgages powers of attorney etc.) which oft times predated the dates of the books. One is able to follow ownership of land from parents to their children and their children's spouses in many of the conveyances.</p>
