Not illustrated. 1907 Excerpt: ...this side of Middle Towne, near the Neversink fit for a settlement of 6 or 8 families," which was granted. This was under the Dutch rule, but within a few months the English resumed sway in this part of New Jersey, hence it became necessary to obtain a new warrant from English authority. In 1677 such warrant was granted to Thomas Appelgate. He located on the Raritan Bay, at what is now known as Applegate Landing, probably a part of the same tract he had sought to buy of the Indians under the Dutch authorities.
