In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Very Good. Folio sheet. A land purchase between Aaron Leaming Sr (1687-1746), father of Aaron Leaming (1715-1780) who together with Jacob Spicer, (1716-1765) compiled early colonial New Jersey Law, and Henry Peterson (1696-1741). The Leaming family were prominent landowners in Cape May. It seems Henry was se…lling the land after his brother Peter Peterson (1695-1737). The document also includes a reference to an additional sale to Peter & Charles String of a Saw Mill and 800 acres located near the Menantico Creek in Salem County, NJ. The String family were also of Swedish descent. Southern New Jersey and especially Salem County had roots from the Swedish colony which first settled in New Castle, Delaware in 1648. Both Peter and Henry Peterson were of Swedish descent on their father's side. Mans Petersson Staake (1615-1698) had arrived on the ship 'Eagle' [Örnen] with Governor Rising from Finland in 1654. Peter & Charles String [Sträng] were also decedents from the Swedish colony in Delaware. The document is signed in the presence of Thomas Oldson, Richard Shanmark and James White as well as Henry Peterson's signature next to a wax seal. A rare piece of early New Jersey colonial history in very well-preserved condition. A small vertical tear along the fold at the head of the document affecting a few letters, but with no loss. See Craig "The 1693 Census of the Swedes on the Delaware".
