Readers are advised to remember that in old handwritten records the letterforms for "J" and "I" are virtually interchangable, as are, often, "S" and "L" (and sometimes "J.") When used as initials, with no surrounding matter as an interpretive clue, some letterforms are indistinguishable. Grantee and grantor places of residence are all in Bergen County, NJ, except where otherwise specified. Underlined names and/or numbers indicate a transcription as shown in the original recording of the document (i.e., not a typograpohical error in this transcription) that appears to conflict with other data in conveyance, or with known history. Names following the description of conveyed property usually refer to the owners of boundin, or nearby, land. It has been my general observation (with possible exceptions) that the grantor (party of first part) information usually includes the name of a wife, if there was one (this can be a means of identification); the grantee (party of second part) data does not usually include the name of a wife, even when one is known to have existed. ============================================================================== 10 May 1805 (recorded 29 October 1806, Bergen Co.
