Source: David Williams and the capture of Andre:
a paper read before the Tarrytown Historical Society , Marcius Denison Raymond,
Tarrytown Argus, 1903
For and in consideration of the services David Williams hath rendered his country in apprehending and securing the British Deputy Adjutant General, Major Andre, who was returning to New York after having in the character of a Spy concerted measures with the infamous Benedict Arnold, then commanding the posts in the Highlands, for betraying the said posts into the hands of the enemy; and for his virtue in refusing a large sum of money offered by the said Major Andre as a bribe to permit him to escape; and for and in consideration of a further sum named, the said Commissioners granted and sold unto him, a certain tract of land late in the possession of Edmund Ward in the town of Eastchester, being altogether 252 J acres, for which the total price was £1,360, 12s., 6p., less the £500 awarded him by the Government. The date of this conveyance was June 16, 1783, but he re-conveyed a portion of the same to Stephen Ward the same year and he may never have lived there, or only for a short time. His purchase of a part of the farm of his father-inlaw, Joseph Benedict, of Lower Salem, 140 acres, for which he paid £640, occurred June 23, 1789; at least he did not take title till that date. In this connection it should be stated, on the authority of Simm's Frontiersmen of New York, to which we are indebted for other data, that David Williams' father, Aert Williams, removed early in the war from near Tarrytown to Cross River, Lower Salem, and lived on lands belonging to Joseph Benedict, whose daughter, his son David, afterwards married. And there he, Aert Williams, continued to reside until his decease.
