Hi all - esp. John Lyon - I found the following reference in the Somerset County Judicials several years ago. I have tried to find where, in the records, the 'judgment' was carried out - I assume via survey or something....Has anyone any clue where this might be found (NOTE: I search the land records for the time period following the 1790 judgment to no avail). John Lyon - have you run across anything in your land studies? ***On Oct 23 1790, the court records show: "Benjm Hitch commifson & affidavits... to Gillif Polk, James Bennett, Robert Dashiell and John Harris Hayman of Somerset County Gentlemen..." commissioners agree to examine evidence on behalf of "a certain Benjamin Hitch of the County in relation to the bounds of a tract of land called Mount Pleasant." Deponents Revel Hayman "of lawful age" and William Hayman, age 22. Judgment was granted to Benjamin Hitch. (SoJ-1788/91:302, 303).*** Best Regards, Mike Hitch "so often times it happens that we live our lives in chains and we never even know we have the key..." - Eagles (Already Gone) -----Original Message----- From: lower-delmarva-roots-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:lower-delmarva-roots-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of kathlingram Sent: Wednesday, January 14, 2009 12:41 PM To: LOWER-DELMARVA-ROOTS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [LDR] John Carrow Patriot Mike Yes that is what it means..anyone who can prove a descent from this John Carrow can join the DAR or SAR.He will not have a "number" until the meeting the first week in February.
