Note: The Robert we are discussing is a footnote in Remington's work, because of his apparent birth date. Since he was in the tax rolls in 1734, he must have been born during or before 1713 to be of age. With daughter Sarah born Oct. 1712 and an April 1711 marriage, David and Mary Haight(? - some Haight scholars dispute this identification, I found recently) must have had Robert. "This Robert "Husted" is probably the one who, according to the research from Vic Heusted I have read, leased lots 14 and 15 of the Beekman Patent in 1734, and was listed in 1741-1742 tax list. Robert died in 1746, after the tax time, and his brother Jonathan took over the lease in 1747. In a 1759 record, there was a record that said that Jonathan had brothers Caleb and Joseph. The inventory of the estate of Robert Husted (Hustis) was presented on 29 Sept 1746. His widow is named Neeltje in the estate documents. Letters of Administration are given to Jonathan Hustis .
