| 903 | Ryck Abramsen adopted the name of Lent and became the ancestor of the family of that name. He moved to Westchester County, New York, and was one of the original patentees of the famous Ryck's patent. Per J. Thomas Scharf's HISTORY OF WESTCHESTER COUNTY: (1884??) (From World Family Tree, Vol. 13, Tree 439) Ryck Abramsen Lent, eldest son of Abraham Rycken, married Catrina, daughter of Harek (Hercules) Siboutsen, and in 1685, with others, purchased of the Indians an extensive tract of land, north of Cortlandt, called Sachus. He settled upon this tract which then took the name of Ryck's Patent. The royal patent confirming this purchase was issued December 23, 1685. It is commonly known as "Ryck's Patent", a contraction of "Ryck Abramson's Patent". He served as an elder in the Sleepy Hollow Church, was much respected, and died at a good old age. December 29, 1729 a deed between Hercules Lent, son of Ryck Abramson Lent (the Richard Abramson of the Ryck's Patent), and Jacob Lent of the first part, Sybout Harche (Hercules) Kranckhyte of the second part, and Hercules Johnse Kranckhyte and Jacobus Kranckyte of the third part recites details of a partition. (Hercules Lent by a deed dated Feb. 27, 1733 purchased from Hercules Sybout Kranckhyte one half of the tract of 300 acres which had been granted in severalty to Sybout Harche Kranckhyte, etc., etc.) GENEALOGY LIBRARY.COM Abstracts of Wills Vol II 1708-1728 Page 365 In the name of God, Amen. I, Ryck Abrahamsen Lent, of the Manor of Cortlandt, in the County of Westchester, miller, being of sound mind. Whereas I am entitled to a certain Island, lying in the Sound, called Judick's Island, and to a certain parcel of land lying opposite to it on the Island of Nassau; which is wrongfully detained from me, I bequeath the said Island and piece of land to my eldest son, Abraham Lent, provided he recover the same at his own charge. I also leave to my son Abraham my fowling piece, being the old gun I formerly employed for my own use, and which I give to my said son, in full of his pretensions, and claim to my estate as heir at law. I leave to my son Harek Lent, all my lands, meadows, and tenements, lying and being in the Manor of Cortlandt, and all my meadow land lying at Jan Cantens Hook, in Orange County, upon the condition that he pay the following legacies, viz., to my son Abraham, ce60; To the children of my son Ryck, deceased, ce60: To the children of my daughter Elizabeth Hyatt, deceased, ce25; To my daughter Catherine, wife of Abraham Jones, ce25; To my daughter Margaret, wife of Thomas Benson, ce5 annually for life, and to be paid to her, and not to her husband. And my son Harek is to give security to the Governor of this Province, for the payment of these legacies. As for the rest of my estate, my executors are to divide it into six parts and divide the same among my children, and the children of my deceased children. I make my sons, Abraham and Harek, executors. Dated March 31, 1720. Witnesses, Hohn Nicholl, Adolph Phillipse, Henry Wileman. Proved March 28, 1723.

| 905 | Samuel Dayton, born in England, immigrated to New England with his parents and other family members in the first half of the 17th century. They apparently soon migrated to the New Haven colony, then to east end of Long Island—living for a while in Southampton, East Hampton (particularly brother Robert), and Southold (with perhaps brief sojourns elsewhere), before Samuel and family settling in the Town of Brookhaven more or less permanently, first in the founding settlement of Setauket on the north shore in 1668, then as perhaps the first permanent European settler on the south shore on Dayton's Neck in the Fire Place/Bellport area in 1678. The exact location of this homestead is unknown; some suggest it was somewhat easterly of modern Bellhaven road, but it could have been closer to the Village of Bellport. That the homestead was in the easterly portion of the neck is also suggested by the granting by the Town of a portion of Tarmen's Neck Just before his death, he deeded to two of his daughters, Sarah and Elizabeth, the Dayton's Neck property, with the proviso that his wife was to have it during her lifetime. These daughters no doubt married (their descendents have not yet been traced). The property did not remain long in the Dayton family; Elias Bayles owned it sometime after 24 Feb 1714/5. Samuel Dayton's sons removed to Connecticut and the New Haven colony, where they and there descendants had large families and were prominent in the towns of the colony, especially New Haven, North Haven and Wallingford. The Dayton family name seems to have largely disappeared from the local Bellport/Brookhaven area. | Dayton, Samuel (I13413)
