  5. [S474] W. W. Spooner, Westchester County, New York: Biographical, The West Farms patent was confirmed on the 25th of April, 1666, to Edward Jessup and John Richardson, by Richard Nicolls, the first English governor of the Province of New York. In the letters-patent it was stated that the two grantees had previously satisfied the original Indian owners by regular purchase, these documents being still in existence. The West Farms lands, like the Eastchester patent and the borough Town of Westchester, were never erected into a hereditary manor, but were parceled out to the various heirs of the first proprietors, and gradually transmitted to numerous descendants or sold to strangers. The continued existence at the present day of a considerable landed ownership in the hands of a direct descendant of one of the patentees is on this account even more a matter of interest.
    John Richardson left two sons and three daughters. One of the daughters, Elizabeth, married Gabriel Leggett, who emigrated to this country from England, about 1661. By the right of his wife he became possessed of a large portion of what was then known as the Great Planting Neck, a part of which was subsequently called Leggett's Point, and is now called Oak Point. One section of this property (lot No. 11 of the original West Farms subdivision) passed uninterruptedly to 'Charlotte Leggett, the wife of William W. Fox.

Robert Embree1,2,3

M, b. circa 1620, d. 21 July 1656
     Robert was born circa 1620 at Normandy, France. Robert married Mary Bassett, daughter of John Bassett and Margery (?), circa 1641 at Fairfield, Fairfield County, Connecticut. Before 1641, Robert resided in Fairfield, Fairfield County, Connecticut. He resided in New Haven before 4 January 1643. The last entry recorded in "Records of New Haven" in which Robert is mentioned is dated 2 October 1649, where it states that he "grewe weary" of working on anothers farm. Possibly because in August of the same year, he had purchased property of his own. The first appearance of Robert in this same record is 4 January 1643, where he and many others were fined 1 shilling "for late coming to trayne". The training was for sentry duty and possibly militia duty as well. In these records Robert's names is spelled "Emery". Robert departed this life on Friday, 21 July 1656 at Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut.

Pelletreau, Historic Homes and Institutions and Genealogical and Family History of New York, page 320 - … that it was of French Huguenot orgin, and tradition reports that they came from Normandyk, the original form of the name being d’Embree. ... they were probably among the large number of families who fled from France to Holland to escape persecution, and from thence came to America with the Dutch. One of the earliest mentions of the name is in the will of Nicholas Parcell or Pearsall, dated March 10, 1689/90. In this, he leaves a legacy “to Robert Embree, son of my daughter Sarah Embree.” She was probably the wife of John Embree, whose name appears at an earlier date. About the same time appears the name of Moses Embree [probably a brother of John] and these two seem to be the progenitors of the race. Robert Embree was probably the father of John who married Sarah, daughter of Francis Doughty. She was born 1703.
