Key to Locations:
Old Spelling
     Ousatunack;Howsatunack
     Housatonic River (runs north-south through town)
West of Housatonic River
      Land west of Housatonic River to the New York State Line.
Note that several Rowleys baught land & settled here in areas not open to colonists until 1753, resulting in investigation into their rights as squatters, in 1752 and 1769. The area was opened to survey and purchase in 1750s, and it appears the Rowleys were allowed to keep their land.
Notes:
Receive date is date the deed is recorded in the township deed bookand usually comes after the actual deed date (in some cases, 1-3 years has elapsed)
Spelling reflects the original document.
