This was entered into the town records at the time that John Emans was the town clerk.

Bergen transcribed the date as March 4, 1701 when he published his abstract of the marriage records found scattered through out the town records. See Tunis G. Bergen, "Marriage Reocrds, Gravesend, L. I.," New York Genealogical and Biographical Record Vol. 4 (1873): 199-200.
