Notes - On February 12th, 1721 Michael Lowber deeded 100 acres of land to Benjamin and Susannah, as a wedding present. Benjamin called it "Furbys Lott" and it was located on the Two Runs later called Double Run, which is about eight miles away from Dover, Maryland. The land was part of the Southampton tract he had purchased from Daniel Rutty. The land remained in the family for almost 100 years. It was on this land that Benjamin was the owner and operator of the "King George's Inn" where he went by the title of "Squire".
On August 10th, 1724 Benjamin increased his land holdings. He bought from Andrew Caldwell, for he price of ten pounds a parcel, the land between that of William Mifflin and a branch of Murderkill Creek, the Double Run. This land had been previously sold to Caldwell by Michael Lowber and the purchase of the land brought the land back into the family.
