• Notes

  He was known mostly as Jeffrey Brewster. Charles Jeffrey Brewster inherited a large tract of land from his father in what is now central and eastern Bellport -- both within the modern incorporated village and the wider modern postal district. On his death, the land was divided among his three daughters -- Mary, Anne, and Catherine. Mary's share, the eastern section, was sold to Charles Osborne in 1827. Anne's share was sold to Henry Gardiner, then resold to Solomon Livingston. Catherine's section was split; the eastern half was sold to Polly Woodruff and the western part to Matthew E. Woodruff and Henry Hulse, Jr. This latter section covered the central part of today's Village of Bellport. It was sold again, in 1829, to Captain Thomas Bell. (Bigelow).
