Capt. Jonathan SIERS, Master of the sloop Carolina

NOTE: This may be the same Jonathan SIERS on the Quit-Rent Rolls of Essex Co., East Jersey Province, in 1696, who owned 160 acres of land, yet it seems unlikely to me that a sea-faring man would also be a farmer.

Subject: Jonathan SIERS / SEERS / SEARS
