Edwin P. Hoyt, "

Nantucket: The Life of an Island" (Brattleboro, VT.: The Setphen Greene Press, 1978):

Pg. 12: " The Nantucket settlers were anything but rich men." When Nathaniel Wier died in the spring of 1680, he left 10 acres of land, his house and outbuildings, 2 steers, 1 cow, and 6 heifers, plus his personel and household effects...after the long winter, his family's possessions were down to 17 cheeses, "20 weight of bacon," and a dozen bushels of grain...Wier was a "half-share man," one who had been given a half-sized land allotment as an inducement to settle on Nantucket.



When in 1683, under Cranfield, the public grievances became insupportable, and the people were driven to making a vigorous stand for their liberties, by an address to "the King's most Excellent Majesty," presented by Nathaniel Weare, their chosen ambassador, we find the signatures of Moses Swett, his brother Benjamin Swett (sons of Capt. Benjamin Sweatt) as well as that of their grandfather, Peter Weare.
