At the time of his death, in 1791, Mr. Cooch was the owner of
eight hundred and fifty acres and one hundred and forty-two
perches of laud in the Welsh Tract. This property was divided
among his heirs, and the larger part of it has descended and is
now in the possession of William and J. Wilkins Cooch. The old
forge, erected in connection with the "Abbington Iron Works," is
on land owned by them. Among the papers of Thomas Cooch was
