- [S162] Unknown author, Web Page, From the history of the Patterson Lane Site - an investigation by the Delaware Department of Transportation. (http://www.deldot.net/static/projects/archaeology/christeen/… - found on 25 Nov 2003)
In 1843, Benjamin Whiteman sold his portion of the lands, to the west of Eagle Run, to William Egbert Heisler (NCCD K-5-433). Heisler was 27 years of age at this purchase, and over the next two decades, bought up several parcels and tracts of land in White Clay Creek Hundred, and through a series of transactions, consolidated a farm of over 120 acres located east of the Wilmington and Christiana Turnpike, crossing Eagle Run, and extending eastward (NCCD G-6-353; P-6-241; H-7-288). Heisler's total holdings in the Hundred included two brick houses and lots in Christiana, seven frame houses and tenant houses, and six frame barns, and over 440 acres of land, quite a sizeable and valuable collection of parcels and tracts (New Castle County Tax Lists, 1845, 1852, 1861). In 1852, for instance, he was assessed for $23,675 worth of real estate. The Patterson Lane Site was one of these tracts, and probably contained a frame house, a frame barn, and a tenant house, assessed at $6200 in 1852 (Figure 15).
On March 5, 1861, Heisler sold the Patterson Lane Tract of a little over 120 acres to Thomas B. Webber of Salem County, New Jersey, for $7,800 (NCCD N-7-116). That same year, Webber was assessed for a farm valued at $5400 (New Castle County Tax Lists, 1861). In 1868, the year that Webber appears as the owner on Beer's Atlas (Figure 13), the property was valued by the assessor for $6800 (New Castle County Tax Lists, 1868). The 1870 U.S. Census records that Webber was a 49 year old farmer with a wife, Louisa, and three sons, Albert, Arthur, and Harry L. Two domestics lived with the Webbers, Evelina Nuse and Grace Bishop, both white teenagers. By 1874, Thomas Webber was operating a coal, grain, and fertilizer business from the stone wharf on Eagle Run (Delaware State Directory, 1874).
In spite of appearances, the Webbers had poor luck with the Patterson Lane Tract for two reasons. By 1878, Thomas had died, and the mortgage, which was held by William Egbert Heisler, was not satisfied by Louisa and Albert Webber, Thomas' administrators, and by the tenants Isaac and Rebecca Jester. Consequently, the Sheriff of New Castle County, John Pyle, sold the land at public sale on December 19, 1879 to William Schultz of Wilmington (NCCD N-11-451). Less than a month later, on January 2, 1880, Schultz transferred the property to Dr. Jacob Derrickson of Wilmington (NCCD 0-11-264). Though the Webbers lost the property, they may still have resided on the land as tenants, because throughout the remainder of the nineteenth century, Louisa, Harry, and Arthur Webber are listed as dealers in agricultural implements, grain, and hardware in Christiana Bridge (Delaware State Directories, 1882 -1897).
