Miscellany
A point of confusion
There were two patents in Dutchess County with similar names:
- The Great (or Lower) Nine Partners Patent of 1697
- The Little (or Upper) Nine Partners Patent of 1706
Although they were adjacent to each other
(in the northeastern quadrant of the county, see the map),
they were quite distinct, having different "partners".
We are associated with the latter (Little Nine Partners Patent),
and cannot help with queries for information regarding the other Dutchess County patents.
To assist those of you who are interested in the Great Nine Partners Patent,
we have compiled a page of information relevant to that patent and other related areas
of inquiry (see below).
NOTICE Regarding Genealogical Inquiries
We are a small historical society
and regret that we do not have the resources to answer genealogy
requests at this time.
May we suggest checking out the Dutchess County
links we have listed below under
Bibliography and Web Guide to help you with your genealogical research.
Thank you for your understanding.
