Little Nine Partners Patent

1897 reprint of a 1744 map showing division of the Little Nine Partners Patent in Dutchess County into Lots.

The Little Nine Partners Patent was the final patent granted (1706) in Dutchess County, New York, United States. It was located in the northern part of the county, and comprises all or parts of the modern towns of Milan, Pine Plains, and North East. Roughly triangular in shape, it was bounded on the north by Columbia County, on the south by the Great Nine Partners Patent (1697) and on the west by the Schuyler (1686) and Rhinebeck (1697) patents. Its eastern boundary was the area known as The Oblong, a narrow strip of land along the eastern edge of Dutchess County, bordering the state of Connecticut.
