Field Deed, 1671/2

TITLE: Deed, Benjamin Field to John Bowne

DOCUMENT ID: BFP 2018.1.01-11

DATE: 22 March 1671/2 (Old Style) / 1 April 1672 (New Style)

Benjamin Field sells John Bowne two shares of fresh meadow, No. 34 and No. 42, lying in the “Upper Meadow” within the bounds of Flushing. Given the date, the seller is not the Benjamin Field who married Bowne’s daughter Hannah in 1691, but likely his uncle of the same name.
