  1. The landlords of this district Brook-lawn were Lewin, Blake, and Lynch. Their fathers and grandfathers were in this district for about a century. Lynch was the right Landlord of this village. They were not so kind at all to the people. They evicted some people. Those whom they put out of their land went away to America or England.
    The tenants had the land got before the landlords came to the place.
