These electronic pages cannot be reproduced in any format for profit or other presentation. ********************************************************************* The first list reflects the majority of the land purchases sold by the Holland Company to various individuals in New York. Please note that some of the parcels were resold in subsequent years, or the original purchase was 1807 or later. A separate list is provided for the years 1807 through 1823. The second list embraces the names, generally of the first six (or more) of the persons who took contracts in townships upon the Holland Purchase, in which no contracts were taken previous to January 1, 1807. The Township and range references should be cross-indexed with the table following the lists. This will provide the location for each land parcel as of 1850, the publication date of the book. This book contains much more than the following lists! There is information of genealogical value about some of the family names mentioned in the lists, as well as information about the Holland Company, and historical notes for the years the book encompasses.
