    Between the years 1688 and 1695 a strip of land reaching nearly across the county was taken by men from Middletown and was known as the "Middletown Men's Lots." It reached from the fifteen hundred acres of Peter Sonmans along the northwest side of Burlington path to the Pines and was divided as follows: In equal divisions of 480 acres to Joseph Throckmorton, James Bowne, James Ashton, Philip Smith; also 300 acres to John Stout, 270 acres to Job Throckmorton, and 240 acres to Benjamin Borden. The tract below the Burlington pate, consisting of 480 acres, belonged to John Throckmorton and extended southerly to Lahaway creek.
