Item description from seller

Folio sheet. A land transaction between Aaron Leaming Sr from Cape May, father of the Aaron Leaming (1715-1780) who together with Jacob Spicer, (1716-1765) compiled early colonial New Jersey Law and Peter Peterson (1695-1737). According to Craig#29 p40 "The 1693 Census of the Swedes on the Delaware", On August 1st, 1711 Peter Peterson sold his quarter interest in Calcon Hook and moved to Maurice River in Salem County, NJ, where he acquired 920 acres and a sawmill. This indenture mentions a sawmill and states it was built by Peter Peterson in 1718. Peter's father, Mans Petersson Stake was from Abo in Finland and came to the America on the ship called Eagle in 1654. The text is written in very tight script on a sheet that measures 14.5" x 11.5". A few tears along the folds with loss of a few letters. A smudge mark at the lower center of the document. A rare piece of early New Jersey history.
