From Popielarz:
He bought for 203 pounds of New York lawful money some 979 acres of land along the Delaware River from Jonathan Hasbrouck of Kingston, NY, on 23 June 1797. (Ulster Co. Deed Book 00:221).
Jonathan was an active member of the St. Tammany Masonic Lodge. Arthur Meyers says: "The charter was issued by the Grand Lodge of PA on June 24, 1800 with Reuben Skinner (brother of Daniel) as Master, Aaron Pierce as Sr. Warden and Jonathan Dexter as Jr. Warden."
In 1803 Jonathan was listed as master of the Lodge. The lodge met at St. Tammany's flats until 1812 when the meetings were moved to Caleb Laggett's Tavern in the villiage of Damascus, PA. It was here according to family tradition that Jonathan's wife hid in a closet and listened to the Masonic rituals. This created an uproar in the Lodge.

Jonathan of the town of Lumberland, Sullivan Co., NY purchased property at Montague, NJ, on 2 May 1803 (Sussex Co. Deed Book K: 78). He and his wife Laura sold it on 1 Feb 1814.

On 29 Oct 1814, Jonathan and Jeremiah Lillie purchased 100 acres of land along the Delaware River in Damascus Twp., Wayne Co., PA, from Amos Tyler and his wife Sarah for $1,000 (Wayne Co. Deed Book 4:165). On 13 May 1815, Jonathan and Jeremiah also purchased for $1,000 another 100 acres in Damascus along the Delaware from Joseph Mitchell and his wife Abigail, Stephen Mitchell and his wife Hannah, and Abraham Mitchell and his wife Mary.

Jonathan was alive in 1824 when he was listed in a deed transfer in Sullivan Co., NY. As Laura is listed as head of household in the 1830 census, Jonathan apparently died between 1824 and 1830.

Jonathan married Mary Ennis about 1794. Mary (daughter of Daniel Ennis and Eleanor Hornbeck) was born about 1775; died in Prob. Died Young. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
