In 1652 Thomas Hunt bought from Augustine Harmons land on Spicer and Bracketts Neck which became the nucleus for his famous Grove Farm.
He apparently did not move there at that time because of disputes between the English and the Dutch who at that time occupied and claimed the New York area. (Thomas is found in Stamford CT in 1660).

On Sept. 6, 1664, Col. Nichols took possession of "New Amsterdam" and the English took over from the Dutch. Thomas Hunt moved on to his Westchester Grove farm and in October 1664 he is described as "a delegate from Westchester."
