"Lambert Garrison was one of the Protestant Petitioners of Richmond County, in 1701 to King William III. He was also a Justice (April 1, 1703) in Richmond County, and a prominent man generally.[1]
His second wife was Mary who had been married to Nathaniel Britton and then had married Mr. Duchan. Her son, Nathaniel Brittin, on 13 April 1715 conveyed to her one acre of land. He signed the deed and his wife Elizabeth made her mark. On the 4th of May, 1716, Mary Britton, "Now the wife of Lambert Garretson Esq," relinquished this gift to her son. [2]
His will reads: P. 471.In the name of God, Amen. October 7, 1723. I, LAMBERT GARRISON, of Staten Island, being very sick. I leave to my wife, Mary, a bed and furniture for the same, a woman's saddle, and one-half of all household goods, and œ20. I leave to my eldest son, Lambert, 5 shillings. Considering what I have done for my daughter Susanah, I give her œ5. I leave all the rest of my estate, houses, and lands, to my children, Lambert, Charles, Nicholas, Isaac, Jacob, Catharine, and Elizabeth; and to my grandsons Daniel and Nathaniel, sons of my son Daniel, deceased. From these lands are excepted "that land which belongeth to the two eldest sons of Barent Christophers, which is in the bounds of my Patent, and belongeth not to me." "I will that the burying place on my land shall continue for a burying place for my posterity forever." I make my brother Segar Garrison, and my sons Charles and Nicholas, executors. Witnesses, Elias Barger, Susannah Barger, Segar Garrison. Proved, May 22, 1725.[3]
