Provenance: An early inscription on flyleaf reads This book is the property of Abraham Staats and lent to me in the 4th Day of August 1786 Peter D. Vroom.'' Abraham Staats born c. 1665 was a younger son of New Netherland pioneers Abraham and Tryntie Wessels Staats. He joined other Albany residents in signing a loyalty oath to the King of England in 1699. In 1700 his sloop was carrying cargoes on the Hudson for the provincial government. However within a decade he had sold most of his Albany property and moved his family across the river to Staats lands near today's Stockport. He maintained a large farmstead and lived there for the remainder of his life. Col. Peter Dumont Vroom 1745-1831 represented Somerset County as an Assemblyman 179091 179496 and 181113 and served in the Legislative Council from 1798 to 1804 as a Federalist. His son would go on to become the ninth governor of New Jersey. This volume is the third compilation of the laws of New Jersey and the last of the colonial series ending during the tenure of Governor William Franklin. Evans 41911; Felcone 214.

In addition this agency worked to survey and produce detailed maps and renderings of the U.S. coast. These nautical survey maps commonly referred to as "T-sheets" provide fascinating insights into the history of the United States coastline which has and will continue to shift. These maps are the most important data source for understanding the physical and ecological characteristics of the U.S. shoreline. The present map is notable for the inclusion of various anchorage points for the "temporary anchorage of naval vessels" complete with a naval seal in the upper left corner of the sheet.

Light soiling boards slightly bowed moderate rubbing to extremities corners bumped chip to head of front joint hinges starting. Moderate toning to interior faint spotting in a few places. A very good copy. $950. First edition. Main text in French. Text of the decree enacting the code in English. Located between the northern coast of France and the southern coast of England Jersey was originally part of Brittany. The island was eventually annexed to the Duchy of Normandy. When William the Conqueror conquered England in 1066 the duchy became part of his new kingdom. Jersey continued to be governed by a system derived from Norman customary law which was recorded in manuscript compilations. Over time this body of law became unwieldy and ineffective. Political events especially a protest in 1769 over the cost of wheat induced the Crown to reform Jersey's law and government. One of these reforms was the 1771 Code. The first printed collection of Jersey's laws it restated the island's law and legal procedures defined its legal and constitutional authority and clarified its relationship with the Crown. A second edition was published in 1860. As Jersey law firm Bedell Cristin notes in its history of the island's law "The legislative precedent set by the Code remains pertinent to this day."

1838réf. 23980No place but Burlington Iowa 1838. Pen ink and watercolour map of Cumberland County with the properties of D. Parvin and D. Harris and numerous towns located the demarcation line between marsh and solid ground marked and the routes and names of all the main rivers and creeks shown some roads marked in pencil and the route between Salem Salem Co. and the tip of Cape May marked with a purple dotted line. An attractive map of Cumberland County in southern New Jersey. The Parvin property is identified as being on the southern bank of the Cohansey River in Fairfield Township. The Harris property is in adjoining Downe Township. These are the only two individual properties identified on the map suggesting that the map was either compiled for or by a member of the Parvin or Harris family. This map was loosely inserted in an 1838 edition of Bradford's Illustrated Atlas inscribed on the title "Theodore Sutton Parvin Burlington Iowa August 15/ 1838" and an examination of the map of New Jersey in the atlas shows that the Cumberland County area was squared up for enlargement. All of which gives a source and probable author of the map. Parvin has added some names and geographical features in addition to those shown on the Bradford engraved map. Theodore Sutton Parvin was born in Cedarville Cumberland County N. J. on January 15 1817; and died June 28 1901. He graduated at Woodward College Cincinnati in 1836; he studied law; was private secretary of Robert Lucas the first governor of the Iowa Territory and was the first librarian of that territory. Later he was librarian and professor in the Iowa State University; was a founder of the Iowa State Historical Society in 1857 and for the years 1863-65 was its corresponding secretary and editor. He was the founder in 1844 of the Iowa Masonic Library and through his exertions this library has its present building at Cedar Rapids. From its foundation until his death fifty-seven years he was its librarian. Collections of the Minnesota Historical Society 1905. vol.X part II p.871. unknown books
