This collection contains materials concerning the transfer of land in Pompton, New Jersey in the early twentieth century; specifically, the transfer of land from Lawrence H. Tasker to Heitaro Fujita. Before Trasker sold his property, he requested a detailed survey of land throughout the town of Pompton. Roome & Lamacha of Butler, New Jersey performed the survey, and compiled a list of property owners in the town. These names are listed in the field notes, in land deeds, and in a letter from Joseph P. Day to Hon. Shuh Tomi concerning the value of Heitaro Fujito's property. The letter also includes the tax assessment of various properties and refers to the wish of the Japanese constituency to turn the land into a residence park or gentlemen's country residence. In addition, the collection also contains eight documents that are either land surveillances or land deeds. Land surveillances exist for properties owned by the following families: Wollstein, Drew, Weygant, Vandine, Sloat, and Dondero. Each of the land surveillances provides the detailed dimensions and compass readings of the properties. Land deeds record the property turnover from Robert Beatie [sic] and Ruth E., his wife, to Philip R. George; Lawrence H. Tasker to Heitaro Fujita; William H. Drayton to Peter Weatherwalks; and John M. Sloat to William T. Vanduyne. Each deed describes the property boundaries in specific detail. Finally, there is a property indenture involving Mary Elizabeth McCall and William M. Weygant. The field notes taken during the survey of Lawrence H. Tasker's land identify various locations within Pompton, New Jersey (mentioning specific streets) and include compass readings, dimensions measured in feet, and diagrams. A map of the Conklin lands shows a demarcation of the property according to owner and dimensions. The collection also contains note cards that appear to be unrelated to the other materials. The note cards include a numbered and unnumbered list of names, landmarks, and locations; they are labeled Newfoundland, but in some cases clearly deal with sites in New Jersey.
