Description
1730 Flatbush Gravesend NY Deed Abraham Lott to Elias Hubbard Colonial New York. It issigned and sealed by Abraham Lott, with witnessesPieter Stryker Junr. Written in brown iron‑gall ink on laid paper with expected folds, toning, and edge wear, but fully legible. Original 1730 colonial New York land deed, executed in the 3rd year of King George II, documenting a property transfer from Abraham Lott (Loot) of Flatbush, King’s County to Elias Hubbard of Gravesend. The deed is written in ornate early Dutch‑New‑York legal script and includes full conveyance language (“heirs and assigns forever”). It is signed and sealed by Abraham Lott, with witnesses Pieter Stryker Junr. and Johannes Lott, all members of prominent early Long Island Dutch families. The reverse bears a 1741 acknowledgment by Christopher Codwise, confirming the deed’s recording and continued legal standing. Written in brown iron‑gall ink on laid paper with expected folds, toning, and edge wear, but fully legible. A strong early New York Dutch‑period deed with exceptional genealogy and Long Island history interest. The Lott and Stryker families were among the earliest Dutch settlers of Kings County, appearing in Flatbush and Flatlands records as early as the mid‑1600s. Members of both families served as town officials, church elders, and landholders throughout the colonial period. Elias Hubbard appears in early Gravesend town records as an English landowner active in local property transactions. Documents connecting these families in the 1730–1741 period are scarce and highly collectible.
