    MaIlman says George--312 was born on Shelter Island. In a deed he calls himself George son of George of Shelter Island. He was a resident there in 1730 (A 19,23), and he owned property on both Rhode Island and Fisher's Island (R23). His will, however, was dated Fisher's Island Oct 31 1726 pr Apr 13 1738 (Ri); it mentions all the above children in the above birth order but Joseph, who may have died. Mather says he lived on Fisher's Island. It seems probable he was born on Shelter Island and moved to Fisher's Island.
    At least some of his children, however, must have remained on Shelter Island. The late Archibald S. Havens, Moriches historian and genealogist (Appendix II), stated that all the Havenses of Shelter Island were descended from Jonathan--313 and George--312 (R23), and I have found Shelter Island records of Havenses of that period whom I could not connect with Jonathan--313.

JONATHAN HAVENS--313: son of George--205 & Eleanor (Thurston) Havens, was born Feb 2 1681 Jamestown, R.l., died Aug 5 1748 ae 68 (R13); he married Jan 1 1706-7 Hannah Brown da Jeremiah--3 (John--2, Chad--1) & Mary (Cook?)

    John Howell of South Charlestown, W.Va., says there may have been another son John, but family group sheet supplied by him does not show John (R43).

    The will of Jonathan--313, husbandman, Shelter Island Sep 22 1746 pr Aug 13 1748 (NY Will Liber 16 p 324, IV p 188) mentions wife Hannah, sons Jonathan, Constant, Joseph, William George, daughters Sarah King, Hannah Havens, Jemima, Keziah Havens(Rl0).

    Moore's Index (R3) adds son Savage, saying Jonathan was a resident of Shelter Island in i73C inherited 100 acres there from his father in 1705 and bought 50 acres more in 1713.

    The Osborn Shaw ms (R23) says Hannah Brown was the daughter of Jonathan Brown, citin Ross' "Long Island" III p 147, but John Howell, mentioned above, cites "Chad Brown o Providence, R.I. and Four Generations of His Descendants" by William Bradford Brown in disprool

    A pedigree chart prepared by the late Archibald S. Havens (R23) had the note that the Havense of Shelter Island ca late 1700 and later were descended from this Jonathan and his brothe George--312.

    MaIlman (Rl) lists a Jonathan as town assessor on Shelter Island in 1732, and he probably was Jonathan--313.

WILLIAM HAVENS--314: son of George--205 & Eleanor (Thurston) Havens (p 7 died 1746 unmarried. His will: yeoman, Shelter Island Apr 13 1746 proved Aug 7 1746 (Lib. 16 I 34) mentions mother Eleanor, brothers George, Jonathan, John and sisters Ruth Terry, Conten Payne, "Pacion" Loper, Desire Gardiner, Abigail Havens; John Havens executor (RiO).

     Smith m Saral da Benjamin & Desire (Havens) Hawkins. Benjamin was son of Eleazer and grandson of Zacharial Hawkins, one of the
     original proprietors of Brookhaven (Rll, 14).

    John--315 was born on Shelter Island and moved to Brookhaven. He was an assessor on Shelter Island in 1734 and overseer of the poor there in 1741; he held the same post again for various terms until 1744.  Moore's Index (R3) makes him resident of Shelter Island in 1730.  Munsell (R19) says he moved to Brookhaven and that the Havens families in Moriches are descended from him, a viewpoint shared by the late Archibald S. Havens (R23), who declared "nearly all the Havenses now living in the town" are descendants of John-315.  His children all seem to have been born on Shelter Island, judging by a check of dates, and his son Henry-423 is given by Mallman as one of the founders of Shelter Island township.

    The A.S. Havens ms (R23) says he owned land on Yaphank Neck (South Haven), Hog Neck (Southampton); in one deed he is referred to as of Shelter Island. But in his will he refers to himself as "late of Shelter Island, now of Brookhaven," and he died there in 1750. He was on the assessment roll there in 1749. The will of William Paine (Rl5) of Southampton says that "Jonathan Pain in 1742 sold lands to John Havens of Shelter Island. Those lands and lands adjoining were the Havens-Gleason farm." -- W.S. Pelletreau. But this could also refer to John--407 son of George--3l2, who died on Fisher's Island, and the John who held town offices for Shelter Island could have been that John.

    His will (Liber 17 NY p 287), Jun 23 1750 pr Nov 29 1750, calls him John Sr and mentions eIdest son Henry, third son William, dau Elinor and Sarah, sons Jonathan and Benjamin, dau Phebe, wife Sarah, dau Desire and Mary, with Nathaniel Havens a witness.

    That MaIlman was in error in saying it was Jonathan--425 son of John--315 who married Patience Tuthill has been well established (R23), but that he did have a son Jonathan--425 is also without question, for that son is mentioned in his will, and John is not. There seems, however, to be complete absence of information on Jonathan--425, and his existence is shrouded in mystery p 14). Another possibility is that there was no son born John but that Jonathan came to be known as John. The late A.S. Havens (R23) declared, however, that the two names were not interchangeable in those days.
