agreement between John Edwards and Joseph Greelee is recorded in
Haverhill, Mass., Public records:
Oct. 3, 1730 --
These Presents Witnesseth that We -- John Edwards and Joseph Greelee,
Junior, both of the Town of Haverhill, in the County of Essex, have
this day settled the bounds of land between us and have done as
followeth, viz., with a stake and stones by it by a meadow called the
"East Meadow" now in the possession of William Richard Saltonstall,
formerly William Ward's meadow so running southeasterly to another
stake with stones by it with 28 rods and so running by the old cart
path, as the last path goeth to a little white oak bush by said path.
as witness our hands the date above written.

Joseph Greelee,
Jun.
The following
rather unique document is recorded in the public records of Essex
County, Salem, Mass.
"I, Lydia
Edwards of Haverhill, aged 73 years, Do testifie and say that I very
well knew one Adam Draper of Haverhill and I lived in his house and I
well remember a path or road that was called Thenod's Road or path and
this twenty third day of November one thousand seven hundred and fifty
six I have viewed where said Thenod's path or Road run, and it runs
from
the little River in Thenod's Meadow, then called, up in a valley
between two hills and so through the orchard now owned by Joseph Grele
(as I suppose) which is to the south westard of Paty's land and I
remember well that sometimes people used to hale wood through Paty's
land now so called but that was not called Thenod's Road or path, but I
am very sure the other road or path as above described was called
Thenod's Road or Thenod's path.
