Notes for John Cory I
John Cory is mentioned as being a whale commissioner at Southampton, Long Island 7 March 1644, and received a grant of land there the next day. His next appearance in Long Island records is in 1649 when he and his wife Ann witnessed a deed for their neighbor William Salmon in Hashamomuck, a part of the town of Southold, Long Island. The times and places of birth are unknown for John and Ann Cory, as are the time and place of their marriage. The will of John Cory I was dated 1 February 1684/5 and proved 2 October 1685. The exact date of death is unproven. The will read: "I give to Son John, Iron Kettle, Great Bible, Chest and its contents, a Cloke and halfe a debt of 12 pounds, half my Weaving Takell, my Bell Mette Skillet, Beds Rugs and Bolsters..I give my son Jacob halfe my Land in Ye Oyster ponds, Upper Neck, to be paid by son Abraham, 2 Cows, halfe my Sheep, Weaving Cloaths and halfe my Weaving Takell, halfe my Husbandry Tools, with halfe my Lumber and 14 acres of Land to his son..To son Abraham my lot in Ye Oyster Ponds, upper Neck, he paying halfe ye price to his brother Isaac, halfe my Sheep, a debt of 12 pounds, halfe my Husbandry Tools and halfe lumber..
