  • Hunter: a settler "in 18[1]2, sold his lease-right to a new and poor comer, Josiah Clawson—a hard-working, sterling-hearted man"; "The flint-lock musket that the elder Clawson brought with him from Claverack"; "Josiah Clawson, and his son, Jacob, were God-fearing men, plain and unassuming."
  • An early list of names (its heading not seen), with numbers: "Benjamin Fairchild 4, Lemuel Woodworth 9 ... Jonathan Fairchild 8, John Beach 2, Matthew Winter 11, Joseph Chatterton 5, Rogers Winter 5."
