Description: This estate inventory listed the moveable property of John Lefferts. The document gives researchers a sense of the kinds of objects owned and used in the households of Kings County's wealthy landowners. The inventory was taken two years after John's death, perhaps because of the chaos of British occupation during the American Revolution.
