On November 24, 1718, RICHARD GREGORY, of Essex County, sold to Thomas Wheeler, of Essex, 300 acres in Essex County as by measures signified in a plot tested by George Morris, surveyor, dated December 1, 1668; which said 300 acres are part of a patent for 103 acres granted to Thomas Gaines, deceased, on February 12, 1665, and by the said Gaines sold to John Gregory on November 4, 1667.2
FN 2 Essex County Records, Deeds and Wills, 1716-1718, page 252. The description of the property in this deed suggests that the 300 acres hereby conveyed were the 300 acres bequeathed by Richard Gregory, of Essex County, by his will dated February 1700, to his son John Gregory (see will of Richard Gregory, ante page 243. Query: Did John Gregory die and thus this land pass to his brother Richard Gregory who now sells it to Thomas Wheeler?
