I owe sundry notes and bonds to different persons, and I order my sons, James and Abraham, discharge the same, James paying 200, and Abraham paying all the remainder of such debts being due unto Joseph Hart, Joshua Carhartt, Monmouth Purdy, and Ezekiel Bishop. My executors are to sell all my lands lying and being in Cortlandt Manor, purchased of Elisha Covert and Bartholomew Gedney (executors to the last will of John Gedney); the money arising from such sale, first I give to my grandchildren, the children of my son Jonathan, deceased, 310, to be equally divided among them; my executors to put the 310 out at interest, and interest so arising to be paid to my daughter-in-law, Elizabeth Bloomer , for her taking care and bringing up my said grand-children; my executors to pay to each of my grand-children as follows: To the sons, their proportion as they come to the age of twenty-one years, and the daughters as they arrive at the age of eighteen years of age in succession; if either of the children die before reaching lawful age, the share of the one so dying to be equally divided among the survivors.

I appoint my wife and my sons, James, Robert, and Abraham, executors. Witnesses, Abraham Hatfield, yeoman; Ebenezer Purdy, Isaac Sniffen. Proved, January 4, 1787. Monmouth was reported to be a tenant farmer at Philipsburgh Manor. (? per page 109 of CHK) Monmouth Hart (and his brother Joseph) were, at some point, loyal to the British rule over the American Colonies as evidenced by their signatures on the following document; Many families were split in their alligiances in the early days of the Revolutionary War my families were split in their loyalty to the Crown. The following is taken from "History of Westchester County, New York," Vol. 11. page 584: This day ( March 28, 1775 was a memorable one in the history not only of White Plains, but of Westchester County. Public notice had geen given of a meeting of persons from different districts of the county to consider the most proper method of taking the sense of the freeholders of the county upon the expediency of choosing deputies to meet the deputies from other counties for the purpose of electing delegates to represent this colony in the General Congress to be held in Philadelphia on the 10th day of May then next. A few days after this meeting, a protest, bearing date the 13th of April, 1775, signed with over three hundred names, appeared in "Rivington's New York Gazette," in which it was stated that on the 11th of April the friends of government met at the house of Captain Hatfield, and at about twelve o'clock walked to the court house, where they found the other company collected in a body; that the friends of the government then declared that they had been called together for an unlawful purpose, and they would not contest the matter with the others by a poll, but that they came only with a dexign to protest against all such disorderly proceedings, and to show their detestation of all unlawful committees and congresses; that then, giving three huzzas, they returned to Captain Hatfield's singing as they went, "God Save Great George, Our King;" after which, the following protest was drawn up and signed: We, the subscribers, freeholders and inhabitants of the County of Westchester, having assembled at White Plains in consequence of certain advertisements, do now declare our honest abhorrence of all unlawful Congresses and Committees, and that we are determined, at the hazard of our lives and properties, to support the King and constitution, and that we acknowledge no representatives but the General Assembly, to whose wisdome we submit the guardianship of our rights and privileges. The following names appended to this declaration show that the Tory faction of White Plains was well represented: "J. P. Horton, Daniel Oakley, William Davis , William Anderson, Captain Abraham Hatfield, Gilbert Horton, Joshua Gedney, John Hyatt, Nehemiah Tompkins, Bartholomew Gedney, Isaac Purdy, Elijah Purdy, Gilvert Hatfield, Gabriel Purdy, Thomas Merritt, Joh Gedney, ----Monmouth Hart----, Timothy Purdy, Thomas Baker, Elijah Miller, William Baker, Jr., Samuel Purdy, James Kniffin, -----Joseph Hart----," etc. It is interesting to note that Monmouth's son Jonathan fought on the side of the Patriots in 1776.

General Notes: Child - Robert Hart


Sarah died in 1784 and Robert married his cousin, Deborah Hart. After Robert's death, his widow married Robert Merritt. Like his father, he was a tenant farmer on the Estate of Frederick Philipse III. Philipse was a loyalist and his lands were seized and put up for sale after the Revolutionary War. Robert, who was the tenant of land around what is now the corner of Central Park Avenue and Hartsdale Avenue, purchased the land and it became known as Hart's Corners. In the mid 19th century this name morphed into "Hartsdale".
