Description
This indenture documents the finalization of the sales of the properties which had belonged to Hiram Capron at his death. His will had specified land to be left to his wife, certain daughters and Banfield; however, other children were not accounted for, and many of his lands were not explicitly bequeathed. He had requested that his other lands be sold, but had not made specific allowances for how or to whom the money would be distributed. The chancery court case determined the means by which these lands would be sold and the distribution of these revenues to his unaccounted for children.

The manner in which the lots were sold, to whom, and for how much, are documented here. This indenture also contains a schedule which identifies and defines the borders of the lots referred to by number in the main document.

The parties listed to this indenture are:

  • Banfield Capron, Hiram's son and executor

  • Leonard A. Sovereign, Hiram's friend and executor

  • William Henry Van Ingen, husband of Hiram's daughter Helen

  • Charlotte B. Capron, Hiram's wife

  • George Thomas Webster

  • Jane Ann Capron, Hiram's daughter

  • Helen Van Ingen, Hiram's daughter

  • Cornelia Jones, Hiram's daughter


This collection also includes a ledger documenting the land sales in greater detail, the catalogue for the auction referred to in this indenture, and the probate of Capron's will. All of these are linked to on the right.
