• He was a partner before 7 May 1808 with Jesse Gale in New York City NY as HEYER & GALE. Though Ensko gives this partnership to Jesse's brother , John Lee, it is unlikely, as he was not a 'Junior' and would have only been 19 years old, not yet at his majority at the time of the dissolution in 1808. ¹⁸

• Advertised in the American Citizen (New York City NY), 7 May 1808, announcing the "Dissolution of Partnership with J. L. Gale, Jr."
