Good morning from sunny yet cool Florida!! I just purchased a four volume set of books entitled The Susquehannah Company Papers 1750-1755; Edited by Julian P. Boyd. Wyoming Historical & Geological Society. Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, 1930; in order to further my research on Chart 179, Jeremiah French of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New Jersey (possibly Connecticut and Massachusetts). In a nutshell the Susquehanna Company was the large land company that settled thousands of people from New England, primarily Connecticut, to the Wyoming Valley area of Pennsylvania. A conflict arose between the New England settlers and the settlers belonging to the William Penn charter. Thus resulted the Yankee Pennamite Wars. I have not read all of the volumes in their entirety, but would like to share what I have found so far in Volume I. >From Volume I of this set are listed the following names: The Memorial of Joseph Blackleach and Others to the Connecticut General Assembly. Jeremiah French, Neamiah French and Samuel French. This "Memorial" appears to be a petition signed by approximately 350 men who are described as "... all of ye Colony of Connecticut" and are interested in settling "vacant and "unclaimed" lands in Pennsylvania (Wyoming Valley area). The document is dated at Hartford the 20th day of May AD 1752. In the same Volume, Vol. I, is a Deed From the Delaware Indians to the Second Delaware Company. Dated at Braywick, October 26, 1755. John French Jr. is one of the men listed as delivery of lands through this deed. Again in Volume I, "Deed from Indians of the Six Nations to the Susquehannah Company" , one of the men listed as receiving lands in this deed is John French. In this portion of the deed the men receiving land are "..all of the aforesd Colony of Connecticutt in New England." Samuel French, who was mentioned previously is listed again in this Volume is listed again as follows: "The following persons Were admitted by Tho Darling Esq In the year 1755 by order of the present Com" Samuel French of Darbe half a share ( the admittance was to the Susquehanna Land Company) As I read through this volume and the other three, I'll post what I find regarding Frenchs. Fascinating reading and more names than you can imagine! Sincerely, Marion Scherer Chart 179 Jeremiah French of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York (possibly Connecticut and Massachusetts)
