The lot was 1/2 of Lot # 8 located on the north side of the second mountain in Bernards Township, Somerset County. The other 1/2 Lot was owned by Jeremiah Mills. Deed Book "I" page 464, on 4 June 1816, John and Anna Mills of Westfield Township, Essex County, NJ sold 2 3/4 acres and 3 square rods to Joseph Linns for $75.00. The wooded lot was located in Bernards Township, Somerset County. The lot was next to the lot of William Mills. If you would like a copy of either deed, please let me know. I am sure that you will enjoy reading the 200 year old handwriting. These are not my Mills family members as far as I know. My earliest ancestor is Robert Mills of Hunterdon/Sussex County, NJ.
