    3. A long standing unknown in Orange Co. is my Samuel Knapp. The family genealogist has worked on him for about 30 years. In my own case it is about 10 years. Samuel was born in 1737 and died at the old age of 96 in 1834. He lived on Pochuck Mountain near the Drowned Lands in western Warwick Town, Orange Co. His neighbors may have included Gabriel Cornwell/Cornwall (his son-in-law), Elias Taylor, Moses Wisner, Joseph Pound, George D. Wickham. One piece of land he owned was purchased from William and Mary Thompson in 1795. His earliest purchase I've found was in 1772. If anyone would like to read a portion of the 1775 assessment roll for Warwick, I'll be most happy to post it for the group. Tom Cornell 5xGGS of Samuel Knapp
