Hi List, I received the following info & found this website very interesting: Cathy Horn has put together a nice webpage giving considering the 418 people that died during "quarantine" from 1909-1911.

Marilyn... On page 1171 of "History of Delaware" is just a few last lines of the Murderkill Hundred section. then begins the Mispillion Hundred section. I haven't been looking at that, but just happened to glance over it & guess what I found... "The next grant was that of "Fairfield," a tract of one thousand acres of land lying on the south side of Brown's Branch, at the head-waters thereof. It was taken up by Wm. Durvall and Wm. Clark, on the head-waters thereof. It was taken up by Wm. Durvall and Wm. Clark, on the 1st of Nov., 1684. A large portion of this tract in later years came into the possession of Chancellor Samuel M. Harrington and at his death was sold. the owners of the old tract are now Thomas H. Dorman, David Harrington, Dr. F.J. Owens, Samuel Swain, Alexander Harper, William C. Quillen, William H. Dickinson, Giles foot, WILLIAM MORRIS and John Richards. The "now'" would be about 1888 when the book was written.

In the book, is there perchance any mention of a William Morris of Murderkill Hundred and the location of his land in that area. . He is my ggggrandfather.

David Sapp, Go to http://www2.state.de.us/dpa/probate and type in the surname of the person you are looking for and the county. All probates for that name and the year filed will show. I have printed all my Knight line from Delaware and have received many wills by writing to Delaware Public Archives, 121 Duke of York Street, Dover, DE 19901. The price was $.50 a page plus $3.00 handling charge the last time I used the service. The $3.00 charge was on five probates, equaling 25 pages dating back to the year 1736 so to me it was truly worth the charge. You can also a-mail them at archives@state.de.us requesting the probates. They will then a-mail you back letting you know they have found them and the amount of the charge. You can then send them a check and they mail you the copies of the probates. Hopefully this will help you. Let us know on the list or e-mail me personally.

I have no idea if this Jackson is the one you are looking for, but.... "History of Delaware", page 1154. To the northwest of "Caroon Manor", and adjoining the village of Magnolia, lies a tract of land called "The Plains". [several paragraphs about The Plains] ... "The Plains" is now principally owned by WM. JACKSON, Philip J. Barrett, Samuel Saxton, Avery D. Marvel, Stephen M. Thomas, Mrs. Sarah Wilson and Henry Burke. AND, page 1155: Adjoining "The Plains" on the east, and abutting on Caroon Manor on the north, lying on St. Jones Creek, is another tract of land taken up by Robert Bedwell, under a patent from Edmond Andros, in 1679...................About fifty acres of the southern or smaller part was purchased by Thomas M. Vinson in 1880, and two hundred acres of the larger or northern part, abutting on Caroon Manor, by EDWARD JACKSON the same year. I'm afraid those are the only references to a Jackson.
