Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Case of Elizabeth Rutgers Versus Joshua Waddington: Determined in the Mayor's Court, in the City of New York, August 7, 1786 In the summer of 1776, there stood on the northern side of Maiden Lane, near where Gold Street now enters it, a large Brewery, with its attendant dwelling, malt-house, sheds, storehouses, etc. The premises extended from Smith, now William, Street, on the west, to Queen, now Pearl, Street, on the east; and from Maiden Lane, on the south, to the present line of John Street, on the north; and it was one of the most notable features in that part of the city. The greater portion of this property had formed, in the earlier days of the Colony, a part of the homestead of Dirck Jansen Van Der Clyff, and a connderable portion of it, on Smith's Vly, now Pearl Street, had passed from his widow, Geesie Hendricks, to Thomas Parcell, of Barn, now Ward's, Island, by deed dated July 13, 1696.
