156 HISTORY OF THE

of the British army during the Revolutionary war. In front of this mansion Henry Pinckney was shot before the ryes of his family, (by a party of soldiers,) whilst endeavoring to effect his escape on horseback, April 2d, -3780.

The Pinckneys of Eastchesler descend from Philip Pinckney, one of the first ten proprietors and patentees of this town, who originally emigrated from Fairfield, cir. 1663-4. Philip Pinck-. ney was a lineal representative of the Pinckneys of England,," whose aticestor Gilo de Pincheni or Pinckenie came into that country in the train of William the Conqueror. The Pinckney c'state is watered on the east by the Aqueanouncke, (Hutchinson's river,) and its tributary called Ann Hook's brook, from the Indian chief of that name.

The Drakes were also extensive proprietors in this town ; the old estate called Nonsuch being bounded on the west by the Bronx, on the north by the Yonkers road leading to Swain's mill, on the east by the White Plains turnpike, and on the south by the Hunt's Bridge road. The property is now owned by various individuals. It is somev/hat curious, that the only portion of the original estate at present vested in the Drake family, is the site now occupied by the barns and out-buildings of the late Moses Drake.
