Executor's Notice Regarding the Estate of Samuel Rodman, Published in 1784


Occasionally I have posted to the Historic Pelham Blog information about Samuel Rodman who owned Rodman's Neck (a/k/a Pell's Point and Annehoock's Neck) in the Manor of Pelham during the 18th Century. See, e.g.,

Friday, March 23, 2007: Abstract of Will of Samuel Rodman of the Manor of Pelham Prepared in 1779 and Proved May 8, 1780.

Tuesday, December 26, 2006: 1775 Statute Authorizing Samuel Rodman and Benjamin Palmer to Build City Island Drawbridge

In 1784, notices appeared in a New York City newspaper in connection with efforts by the executor of Samuel Rodman's estate to close that estate. Today's Historic Pelham Blog transcribes the text of the notice and provides citations to its sources.

"ALL Persons having any demands against the estate of the late SAMUEL RODMAN of the Manor of Pelham in Westchester county, deceased, are requested to bring in their accounts, properly attested to the subcriber: And all persons indebted to the said estate, are requested to make speedy payment to prevent further trouble, to William Rodman, Executor."
