(Which is the "right" ear of an animal, and which is the"left"? The drawing above appears in the margin of this book several times as a mnemonic for the clerk.)

Livestock Marks: Although within the bounds of the early Town and village of Newburgh animals were required to be confined (see Village and Town of Newburgh Records 1803-1838 for some of the livestock laws) fences did break and stock did wander. For this reason, most people marked their young sheep, cattle, and pigs in some way, so they could be identified and returned. Rather than branding, the community followed the practice of their English, Scotch, Welsh, and Irish forebears and used "earmarks,": usually slits, circles, or crops made to the animal's ear. These marks were usually registered with the town clerk as a central clearing house, and often passed on to sons and other relatives as an inheritance.

Strays: when a stray domestic animal was found the owner could not immediately be identified, it was kept in a community pound for a stipulated period of time. a description of the animal was entered with the clerk so that the owner of a missing animal could identify his property (and pay a fine for having let it roam).

Slaves: When New York abolished slavery, a "phasing out" procedure provided that children born to slaves after July 4, 1799 would be considered bound servants, rather than slaves, and become free at age 25 (females) or 28 (males). This in turn meant that a record of slave births had to be kept, and since this was a new idea (and since slavery was not particularly common in the area) the town clerk simply used the empty space in the back of his "Livestock Marks and Strays" book for the purpose. (An 1817 law freed all slaves born before July 4, 1799, as of July 4, 1827).

Furthermore, the law did not permit the freeing of a slave who could not support himself. This provision was intended to protect the aged and infirm (or, more accurately, to keep them from becoming a burden on the community). An owner who wanted to free a slave had to swear an affidavit that the slave was adult, healthy, and under the age of 45.
