Diane, I have the following information on Jonas Culver. I can supply the sources at your request. Bob Dunfield Lot 40, 200 acres, Jonas Culver Sr., June 29, 1786: Jonas Culver Sr., along with his son, Jonas Jr. (see Lot 39), served with the 1st. New Jersey Volunteers during the Revolution. Apparently, both came to Parr Town with other relatives (John Ross, Thomas Brannon, John Turner and John Whiteneck) with the fall fleet. Jonas Sr. first received Parr Town Lot 958 in 1784, but also received Salmon River Lot 40 in the Furnie allotment of 1786. He probably did not occupy this latter lot until after 1790 since his name does not appear on the parish assessment of that year. He does, however, appear on the assessment of 1800. However, he sold part of the lot to Peter Stover around 1790; other owners were Captain Hutchinson (1792), James Wallace (1795), and then Samuel Freeze (1778-1844) c1801. Jonas was deceased by September, 1818, and administrators of his will - one of whom was Peter Snider "of Saint John" - disposed of his former Parr Town lot.686 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Diane McLeod" <mcleo01@shaw.ca> To: <newbrunswick@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 02, 2007 3:35 AM Subject: [ NB ] Salmon River (Sussex) > Happy new year, list!
