Misc. Notes
"Jacob Bruner" was a passenger on the ship Dragon which landed at Philadelphia, PA on 23 September 1749 bound from Rotterdam via England.

He bought a 100 acre farm in the town of Stark 7 July 1768 for 63 pounds sterling. This was the first recorded land sale in the McNeil Patent, "the...deed from Felix Callar to Jacob Bronner ran 17 chains 25 links east-west and 57 chains 95 links north-south. Although it was called Lot 8, in reality it was located half in Lot 8 and half in Lot 9, being bounded on the west by the southern end of present-day Aney Hill Road."5

He was captured by Joseph Brant and a party of indians near Fort Plank on 2 August 1780 with his daughter Sophronia and son Christian.
