Tl^l'    PARISH    RFGISTF-R    OF    ST.    MARYS,    BURLINGTON,   N.   J. 

The  Records  of  St.  Mary's  Church,  (Episcopal),  of  Buriington,  N.  J.,  are  contained  in 
several  volumes,  but  only  the  first,  which  is  of  genealogical  and  historical  interest,  is  here  re- 
produced. This  volume  shows  considerable  decay,  and  is  exposed  to  destruction  by  fire,  as 
no  special  provision  for  its  preservation  has  yet  been  made.  Some  years  since,  the  Reverend 
Dr.  Hills,  then  rector  of  this  church,  made  a  list  of  the  names  appearing  in  this  volume,  and 
inserted  it  in  his  history  of  this  edifice,  but  as  it  kicks  dates,  it  really  is  little  less  than  an  index 
to  this  volume. 

The  copy  here  reproduced  is  verbatim  ct  literatim,  save  an  occasional  contraction  in  the 
spelling  for  brevity's  sake.  A  comparison  with  Dr.  Hills'  list  may  show  some  seeming  dis- 
crepancies in  the  spelling  of  names,  but  a  careful  consideration  of  the  original  text  prompts 
me  to  hold  for  the  accuracy  of  this  copy.  J.  E.  Stillwell. 

THE   REGISTER   OF   THE  CHURCH    OF    ST.   ANN'S, 
AT   BURLINGTON. 

Memorandum.  This  Church  was  called  S'.  Ann's,  (in  the  first  Charter  granted  Octob'' 
4"^,  1704,  by  Lord  Cornbury),  after  the  name  of  the  Queen;  but  when  a  more  ample  charter 
was  granted  in  1709,  Janu^  25"^,  by  Lieu'  Governor  Ingoldsby,  the  Church  was  called  S'  Mary's, 
and  so  continues  to  be  denominated,  on  account  of  its  first  foundation-stone  having  been  laid 
on  the  25"'  of  March,  which  was  in  1703,  but  this  it  seems  was  not  adverted  to  till  afterwards.

[Horizontal  stone.] 

Here  lie  the  remains 
of 
William  Bradford 
Attorney  General  of  the  United  States 
under  the  Presidency  of 
Washington ; 
and  previously 
Attorney  General  of  Pennsylvania  and  a  Judge 
of  the  Supreme  Court  of  that  State 
In  private  life 
he  had  acquired  the  esteem  of  all  his  fellow  citizen[s  ?] ; 
In  professional  attainment 
he  was  learned  as  a  lawyer  and  eloquent  as  an  advocate ; 
In  the  execution  of  his  publick  offices, 
he  was  vigilant,  dignified  and  impartial 
Yet, 
in  the  bloom  of  life ; 
in  the  Maturity  of  every  faculty 
that  could  invigorate  or  embellish  the  human  mind ; 
in  the  prosecution  of  the  most  important  services 

that  a  citizen  could  render  to  his  Country; 

in  the  perfect  enjoyment  of  the  highest  honours 

that  publick  confidence  could  bestow  upon  an  individual ; 

Blessed 
in  all  the  pleasures  which  a  virtuous  reflection 
could  furnish  from  the  past, 
and  annimated 
by  all  the  incitements  which  an  honourable  ambition 
could  depict  in  the  future 
He  ceased  to  be  mortal. 
A  fever  produced  by  a  fatal  assiduity 
in  performing  his  official  trust 
at  a  crisis  interesting  to  the  Nation, 
Suddenly  terminated  his  publick  career, 
extinguished  the  splendour  of  his  private  prospects 

and 
on  the  23'''  day  of  August  1795, 
in  the  40""  year  of  his  age. 
Consigned  him  to  the  grave.

Here  Hcs  a  failliful  follower  of  her  Lord, 
Who  with  a  humble  heart  her  God  ador'd 
Of  meekness,  patience,  gentleness  possessed, 
Of  wives,  of  parents,  and  friends  the  best. 
For  liberal  hand  did  feed  and  clothe  the  poor, 
Who  often  in  distress  approached  her  door, 
The  Widow  and  the  orphan  found  her  kind, 
But  few  such  friends  to  them  are  left  behind, 
Affection  warm  and  strong  she  did  possess, 
The  benefits  of  which  how  many  miss, 
We  weep,  but  will  not  murmur  or  complain, 
Since  our  loss  to  her  is  greater  gain. 
Now  her  immortal  soul  hath  taken  flight. 
To  dwell  \vith  saints  in  realms  of  glorious  light.

THE    FIRST    TOWN    BOOK 
OF 
MIDDLETOWN,   N.   J. 

The  records  of  Middletown,  Monmouth  County,  N.  J.,  consist  of  five  volumes,  viz.:  The 
First  Town  Book,  1667-1695;  The  Second  Town  Book,  1699-1800;  a  book  of  "Estrays, " 
1731-1851 ;    a  book  of  "Cattle  Marks,"  1699-1853,  and  the  "Town  Poor  Book." 

They  have  had  many  vicissitudes.  The  first  volume  had  been  unheard  of  for  years  when 
it  was  discovered  by  Gov.  Joel  Parker.  While  in  his  [jossession,  in  1880,  I  made  my  copy, 
which  is  here  reproduced  verbatim  et  literatim.  Subsequently  it  was  returned  by  him  to  the 
town  officials,  and  has  again  been  lost.* 

At  various  times  I  have  seen  all  these  volumes,  but  now  the  most  diligent  inquiry  only 
reveals  tlie  whereabouts  of  two,  viz. :  the  book  of  "  Estrays  "  and  the  book  of  "  Cattle  Marks." 

The  First  Town  Book  is  probably  the  oldest  document  of  any  size  in  the  State  of  New 
Jersey,  and  possibly  with  one  exception,  (Newark),  is  the  only  perfect  record  of  any  settle- 
ment on  the  original  Nicolls'  patent,  most  of  the  records  of  the  towns  on  this  land  grant  having 
either  been  lost  or  much  mutilated. 

Between  December,  1664,  and  December,  1666,  the  settlement  of  Elizabethtown,  Mid- 
dletowTi,  Shrewsbury,  Woodbridge,  Piscataway  and  Newark,  w-as  effected  by  English  people 
who  came  from  Long  Island  and  New  England.  The  Dutch  who  held  these  lands  prior  to 
1664,  defeated  all  attempts  to  settle  in  this  region  by  burdensome  restrictions.  When,  how- 
ever, the  Dutch  were  overthrown  and  the  English  became  supreme,  Nicolls,  the  Governor  of 
the  Province  and  representative  of  its  owner,  James,  Duke  of  York,  granted  two  patents, 
which,  from  their  liberal  character,  drew  many  settlers  to  this  tract  of  land.  These  grants 
were  known  as  the  Elizabethtown  and  Monmouth  Patents  and  within  their  limits  grew  the 
towns  above  enumerated. 

After  a  brief  ownership  the  Duke  of  York  conveyed  to  Lord  Berkeley  and  Sir  George 
Carteret  that  portion  of  his  domain  which  included  these  grants  from  Nicolls.  Though  this 
transfer  from  the  Duke  of  York  to  the  Proprietors  was  made  at  a  date  anterior  to  Governor 
Nicolls'  patents,  no  news  of  the  transaction  had  reached  this  country.  The  patents  were  ap- 
plied for,  issued  and  received  in  good  faith  by  both  parties,  and  no  questions  arose  concerning 
their  validity  until  the  settlers  had  located  themselves  upon  their  grants  and  had  further  ex- 
tinguished the  Indian  titles  to  the  lands. 

In  the  meanwhile  the  divided  domain  was  represented  by  two  Governors,  Nicolls  ruling 
for  the  Duke  of  York,  and  Philip  Carteret  for  the  New  Jersey  Proprietors.     The  latter  soon 

*  In  1903  this  book  liad  not  been  found,  nor  had  it  been  seen  since  1S84,  when  it  was  in  the  possession  of 
Edward  Hartshorne,  Esq.,  now  deceased,  by  whom  it  may  have  been  loaned  to  others.  The  statement  made  in 
Ellis'  History  of  Monmouth  Co.,  N.  J.,  that  their  quotations  were  made  directly  from  this  book  is  an  error,  Mr. 
Hartshorne  assuring  me  that  the  compilers  of  this  book  had  only  been  shown  this  valuable  record,  which  is 
proven,  as  they  have  copied  such  typogr.iphical  errors  as  were  made  by  the  Ahnmotiih  Democrat  in  printing  my 
original  manuscript. 

Edward  Tartte's  writing  fills  the  first  fifty-nine  pages  of  the  book,  1667-1674.  Signatures  of  James  Mills  and 
W"  Lawrence,  John  Wilson,  Mordecai  Gibbons,  Benjamin  Stout,  Jon"  Stout,  W'"  Lawrence,  Jr.,  James  Bowne, 
Richard  Hartshorne,  James  Grover  and  others  appear. 

Some  of  the  clerks 

"  most  worthy  men 

handier  with  the  ax  than   pen  " 

rather  than  struggle  with  the  entries,  secured  Tartte  to  do  the  clerical  work  and  simply  put  their  names  thereto. 
Some  who  did  not  employ  him  would  have  been  wiser  had  they  followed  the  example  of  the  others. 
The  surname  Deuell  now  reads  Devell,  with  the  accent  on  the  first  syllable.

commenced  to  exercise  his  prerogatives  by  enforcing  taxation  and  creating  laws  which  in- 
fringed the  rights  of  the  settlers  under  the  Xicolls'  charter.  They  rebelled  promptly  and  in 
retaliation  the  validity  of  their  land  titles  was  questioned  by  Carteret  who  declared  that  they 
were  null  and  void  from  being  issued  at  a  date  later  than  the  Duke's  transfer  to  the  Proprie- 
tors; that  the  Duke,  represented  by  his  agent,  Nicolls,  could  not  sell  that  which  he  did  not 
own.  On  the  other  hand  the  settlers  maintained  that  Nicolls'  acts  were  legal,  he  being  vested 
with  governing  power  until  relieved  or  stayed  by  an  official  notice  to  the  contran-;and  that, 
while  he  was  superseded  in  England  by  the  date  of  Carteret's  commission,  he  was  still  the  head 
of  the  government  in  New  York,  until  his  successor  arrived,  and  his  acts  during  this  time 
were  binding,  especially  as  he  lacked  any  knowledge  of  the  Duke's  conveyance  to  the  Pro- 
prietors. This  dispute  was  waged  for  many  years  and  it  is  upon  this  interesting  period  in  New 
Jersey  State  history  that  the  old  town  book  sheds  much  light.

Wee  having  received  a  pattent  from  his  Roiall  highnes  the  Duke  of  Yorkes  Deputy  : 
owning  us  :  nott  onely  to  have  purchased  our  lands  from  the  cheife  proprietors  of  the  countrey : 
but  all  soe  impowTing  us  to  give  prudentiall  lawes  to  our  selves  :  both  for  our  safety  :  and  our

and  preiudiciall  would  it  bee  to  our  present  safetys  witnes  a  law  made  the  last  generall  assem-

many  sad  former  experiences  have  wee  had  among  us  wittnessing  the  same  :  it  beeing  a  liberty 
soe  contrary  to  the  lawes  of  New  Yorke  from  whence  our  pattent  had  its  originall  over  and 
besides  (our  pattent  giving  us  such  liberty)  as  giving  laws  to  our  selves  :  how  are  wee  bound 
to  take  lawes  from  the  goverment  of  the  lords  proi)rietors  (criminalls  and  apeals  excepted) 
by  wch  it  is  manifest  :  that  neither  the  lords  proprietors  nor  the  generall  assembly  can  in  the 
least  breake  our  liberties  and  priveledges  :  butt  wee  ourselves  will  bee  found  to  bee  selfe  vio-

by  the  maior  vote  in  the  generall  asembly  :  then  how  should  wee  submitt  by  swearing  to 
the  lawes  of  the  goverment  :  and  nott  bee  guilty  of  selfe  violation  of  our  pattent '  our 
selves  X  And  for  as  much  as  they  are  stiled  the  'absolute  lords  proprietors  fTrom  hence  : 
it  is  absolutely  granted  and  necessaryly  followeth  that  all  such  inhabitants  as  lives  upon 
this  propriety  :  are  absolute  tennants  to  the  lords  to  the  lords  proprietors  :  and  by  vertue 
of  this  their  submission  :  by  oath  to  their  Interest  :  are  irricoverably  invovld  to  pay  such 
lords  rents  :  as  will  answer  the  Interest  to  wch  they  have  swome  :  and  should  wee  submitt 
to  the  Interest  soe  farre  as  by  swearing  thereunto  :  Having  a  propriety  of  lands  nott  onely 
purchased  from  the  cheife  Proprietors  of  the  Countrey  :  \'iz  :  the  Indians  :  but  allsoe 
granted  unto  us  by  the  Deputy  to  his  Royall  highnes  the  duke  of  Yorke  (wch  apears  under 
hand  and  seale)  it  would  bee  an  act  beneath  the  wisedome  of  the  owTiers  of  such  a  pattent : 
and  herein  wee  should  apeare  to  bee  selfe  violators  of  our  pattent  ourselves  :  and  for  as  much 
as  the  lords  proprietors  rents  from  such  inhabitants  as  lives  upon  the  propriety)  apears  in  the 
concessions  :  viz  :  a  halfe  penny  an  acre  at  least  :  should  wee  submitt  soe  farre'  to  the  Interest 
by  swearing  :  whose  acknowledgments  by  vertue  of  pattent  to  his  Rovall  highnes  :  have  their 
dependancy  upon  such  payments  as  others  his  maiesties  subiects  doe  in  the  goverment  of  New 
Yorke  to  his  Royall  Highnes  :  it  would  bee  an  act  as  wee  conceive  wch  would  bee  a  dishonner 
to  him  that  gave  it  :  Here  in  wee  should  apeare  to  bee  selfe  violators  of  our  pattent  our  selves  : 
but  for  as  much  as  there  is  an  asignement  made  by  his  Royall  highnes  to  the  lords  proprietors 
of  such  a  tract  of  land  in  wch  our  pattent  may  bee  compreliended  :  wee  looke  at  our  selves 
to  bee  (not  onely)  responsible  to  the  lords  proprietors  :  in  all  such  aclcnowledgments  as  others

way  now  nullified  :  altered  :  or  changed  as  wee  conceive  but  onely  tranf erred  by  virtue  of  the 
Assignement  to  the  sayd  lords  proprietors  and  their  Goverment  :  Notwithstanding  for  the

beeing  soe  well  knowne  to  god  and  our  oane  consciences  herein:  in  point  of  true  loyall  sub- 
mission to  the  govermcnt  of  the  lords:  proprietors:  soe  farre  forth  as  is  proper  to  our  condi-

(as  it  is  well  known)  withall  gravity  owned  but  when  wee  consider  (having  pondered  well  in 
our  minds)  the  late  act  now  presented  to  us:  and  being  therein  charged:  with  noe  les  then 
contempt  of  arthority  and  goverment :  the  charge  being  soe  generall :  viz  the

The  townes  of  middleton  and  Shrewebury  the  forciblcnes  of  the  charge:  soe  great  viz: 
an  act  of  the  generall  assembly :  and  withall  Judgeing  the  charge  the  whole  ground  of  the  act : 
for  what  grater  force  can  there  bee  then  a  generall  act :  Wee  say :  wee :  (weighing  these  things 
in  the  ballances  of  equity)  Judge  ourselves  at  present  all  toghether  uncapable  of  answering  the 
summons:  aprehending  ourselves  at  present:  rather  fitter  to  bee  cleered  publickely  of  soe 
weighty  a  charge:  then  to  Joyne  with  the  Govemour:  counsell:  and  deputies  of  the  townes

and  necessary  for  the  well  governing  of  this  province  and  shoud  have  now  apeared  to  have 
answered  to  the  charge  if  that  writt  had  apeared  amongst  us  wch  the  late  assembly  gave  the 
Govemour  thatt  power  to  issue  forth:  further  more  (conceaving  under  coiTcction)  that  noe 
such  perogative  or  priveledge:  may  bee  conferred  upon  contemners:  and  despisers  of  goverment 
much  Ics  noe  such  thing  as  either  the  dignity  of  a  freeholder  to  elect  or  the  dignity  of  a  Deputy 
to  act  for  the  good  and  welfare  of  any  state  or  province :  and  therefore  for  the  fuller  clearing 
of  our  selves :  our  desire  is  that  the  late  act  (acording  to  the  current  thereof)  may  bee  exactly 
procecuted:  that  soe  that  power  (wch  the  late  assembly  of  deputies  at  their  last  Adiourment 
tooke  upon  them  to  give  the  govemour)  may  now  bee  putt  in  execution :  for  had  that  writt 
apeared  now  amongst  us :  wee  question  nott :  butt  w-ee  should  have  shewed  our  ready  and  wil- 
ling obedience  to  have  answered  thereunto  (beeing  carefull  of  incurring  upon  any  Atta^mdor 
of  rebellion :  butt  that  writt  apearing  nott  amongst  us :  wee  Judged  our  selves  not  obligd  to  come 
to  answer:  and  thus  in  breife  have  wee  given  account  of  our  present  condition:  under  favour 
waiting  onely  wth  all  humility  (pro  forma  tantum)  as  to  what  is  further  required  of  us  in  the 
late  act :  viz  to  shew  cause  why  wee  will  nott  pay  our  Just  proportion  of  expences  of  provision 
taxed  [?]  at  two  assemblies  in  the  yeare  (68)  wee  answer:  that  what  was  expended  at  the  as- 
sembly Held  25  May  (68)  wee  had  then  noe  deputies  there  to  expend 

[Page]  40 
and  further  what  was  expended  at  the  adiourment  in  november  followTng  in  the  same  yeare: 
Our  Deputies  who  were  there  and  nott  suffered  to  act  butt  turned  home  agayne  reported  to 
us :  that  the  Deputies  for  the  townes  of  the  province :  invited  them  one  night  to  supper :  wch 
before  their  departure  thence  they  tendred  them  mony  for  itt :  soe  that :  as  w-ee  abhorre  all

have  soe  liglitly  as  to  pay  other  mens  expences :  who  wee  conceive  rather  shew  an  evcll  mind 
in  dcsirring  it  itt  so  that  if  any  thing  by  the  power  of  the  province  be  forced  from  us  at  any 
time:  (upon  this  acount)  viz:  for  the  discharge  of  expences  of  provisions  for  those  two  assem- 
blies: wee  hope  wee  shall  neither  be  ashamed  nor  afTrayd  to  declare  it  to  bee  open  and  mani- 
fest wrong:  furtlicr  wee  give  yce  to  undcrstrmd:  the  cause  and  reason  why  our  deputies  ap- 
eared  not  at  the  last  adiourment:  when  the  time  came  that  they  should  goe:  our  vcsscll  was

this  beeing  the  very  ground  and  reason  why  they  came  nott:  and  therefore  wee  conceave:

RECORD 
of  the 
BAPTIST    CHURCH,    MIDDLETOWN,    N.    J 


The  records  of  the  MiddletowTi  Baptist  Church  have  been  poorly  kept.  Prior  to  1 7 1 2  none 
are  knowTi. 

From  171 2  to  1735  they  are  meagre  and  suddenly  stop,  and  leave  us  iminformed  of  church 
matters,  until  1785.  Space  has  been  left  between  these  dates,  1735-1785,  from  which  it  would 
appear  that  former  church  clerks  kept  their  records  loosely,  and  often  as  personal,  rather  than 
church  property,  with  intent  to  insert  them  at  convenient  time,  and  such  has  recently  been 
proven  the  case  by  the  discovery  of  Elder  Mott's  Journal. 

The  book,  in  possession  of  the  church,  is  a  large  parchment  bound  folio,  and  opens: 

"THE  CHURCH  RECORD  BEGUN  DENOVA  JUNE  ANNO  DOM  1712" 

"At  a  meeting  y'  31^'  day  of  May  Anno  Dom.  1712  Ordered  y*  y'  foore  first  Leaves  of  this 

book  be  Cut  out  and  Set[  ?]  out  y'  it  may  be knowen  how  many  leaves  are  Cut  out  by 

Order  of  said  Meeting. 

"  Att  ye  yearly  meeting  May  ye  24'*'  Anno  Dom  171 2",  an  agreement  was  made  to  submit 
d'fTerences,  to  friends  from  Philadelphia,  in  the  matter  of  the  regularity  of  excluding  John 
Okison  from  the  church  as  a  member,  and  whether,  if  they  find  him  guilty,  he  be  allowed  to 
preach 

After  a  lengthy  digest  of  the  disturbance  the  referees  decided  upon  a  course,  adopted  in 
eight  articles,  which  left  the  church  the  privilege  to  select  Bray  or  Okison  and  to  which  they, 
the  referees,  subscribed  : 

Timothy  Broocks  James  James 

Abell  Morgan  Griffith  Miles 

Joseph  Wood  Edward  Church 

Elisha  Thomas  William  Betredg 

Nicolas  Johnson  John  Mannery 

After  another  series  of  devout  utterances  in  eight  provisions,  the  members  sign  an  agreement.

Brother  Branfon  Was  Charged  With  Being  faulty  In  two  Perticulars:  furft  that  he  Deceued 
the  Church:  In  Saying  that  he  Was  Agoing  Away:  And  thareby  Obtained  A  letter:  Secondly 
that  he  Made  a  Wrong  Ufe  of  Said  letter  When  obtained :  In  that  he  did  not  Carry  it  to  the 
Brethren  In  Diftant  Parts:  But  Made  Ufe  of  it  to  Recommend  him  In  the  Nearest  Churches. 
Both  Charges:  Brother  Branfon  denied :  And  Pled  Not  Gilty  and  Said  the  lord  had  Cauled  him 
to  Preach :  and  Nither  Men  Nor  Angels  Shuld  Stop  him :  and  Demanded  a  letter  of  Difmifshon

Members  of  this  Church  And  No  farther:  the  next  Day  When  the  Brethren  Sat  Do\\ti  at  the

INSCRIPTIONS 

FROM 

THE  BURYING  GROUNDS 

OF" 

MONMOUTH   COUNTY,  N.  . 

In  walking  through  the  cloisters  of  Westminster  Abbey  you  may  see  at  your  feet  lines,  in 
brass  and  stone,  now  nearly  efiaced.  They  once  recorded,  in  eulogistic  verse,  the  pious  acts 
of  saintly  monks  or  the  mighty  deeds  of  valiant  knights.  But,  alas,  like  the  dead  whose  memory 
they  were  ever  to  keep  fresh,  they  too  have  passed  into  dust,  and  we  are  left  to  conjecture 
what  they  were  and  to  ponder  over  the  effects  of  time.  It  is  now  too  late  to  rescue  these  epi- 
taphs, and  no  man  can  unbosom  the  secrets  of  these  stones.  The  same  profound  feeling  of 
regret  that  I  experienced  there  has  more  than  once  been  awakened  in  looking  into  the  bury- 
ing grounds  of  old  Monmouth.  Here,  as  in  the  old  Abbey,  has  time  been  at  work,  and  more 
than  one  stone  stands  mute.  Tliis  countn,^  is  young  compared  with  others,  yet  old  enough 
to  have  a  noble  history  of  its  own,  and  the  essential  element  of  that  history  is  the  action  of 
its  men.  To  save  all  that  which  pertains  to  them  is  absolutely  necessary,  and  too  long  already 
has  been  the  delay.  While  much  is  lost,  we  can,  by  way  of  atonement  for  past  neglect,  rescue 
that  which  remains,  and  there  is  no  field  which  calls  for  prompter  attention,  or  which  will 
prove  more  profitable  to  the  historical  and  genealogical  student,  than  the  old  graveyards 
scattered  through  Monmouth  County.  It  is  difficult  to  realize  that  the  fair  fields  of  ^Ionmouth 
were  once  covered  by  a  forest,  massive  and  trackless.  Following  the  arrival  of  the  settler, 
clearings  were  made  and  humble  homes  were  erected.  There  were  no  attempts  made  at  dis- 
play, no  vying  to  outdo  the  other,  but  an  intense,  earnest  eflfort  on  the  part  of  each  to  develop 
his  own  resources.  They  who  first  penetrated  here  were  men  fitted  by  previous  experience 
to  grapple  successfully  with  all  obstacles,  and  soon  they  transformed  portions  of  this  wilderness 
into  "garden  spots."  Many  of  them  had  reached  mature  age  and  not  a  few  were  advanced 
in  years,  so  that  only  a  short  time  elapsed  before  some  of  their  number  were  laid  low  in  death. 
All  communicating  roads  were,  as  yet,  mere  foot-paths,  and  no  common  place  of  sepulchre 
had  yet  been  thought  of,  and  could  not  have  been  attained,  even  if  desired,  from  the  unopened 


278  HISTORICAL  MISCELLANY. 

condition  of  tlie  country  and  the  widely  scattered  locations  of  the  settlers;  hence,  as  deaths 
occurred,  all  families  were  forced  to  bur>'  on  their  own  land.  Later,  those  who  were  con- 
nected by  marriaj:;e,  or  who  had  the  claims  of  kinship  or  friendship,  were  laid  to  rest  in  these 
original  plots.  Still  later,  when  religious  societies  erected  church  edifices,  it  became  a  common 
custom  to  inter  beneath  their  shadow,  and  in  more  than  one  instance  the  graveyard  has  out- 
lived the  church.*  Slowly  the  churchyards  have  filled,  and  as  a  consequence  the  large  ceme- 
teries now  in  use  have  been  set  apart.  What  the  future  has  in  store  it  is  hard  to  say,  but  if 
the  stor>'  can  be  read  in  the  experience  of  the  past,  time  will  leave  no  greater  trace  of  the  tomb- 
stone than  it  does  of  the  body  over  which  it  was  reared. 

Already  many  have  gone,  and  with  them  a  priceless  historical  note;  some  gone  by  the 
action  of  time,  some  by  the  destructive  hand  of  man,  who,  in  his  greed  for  the  quarter  acre 
lot,  has  cast  down  the  rails,  ploughed  over  the  mounds  and  incorporated  the  headstones  in 
the  masonry  on  his  farm.** 

In  nearly  all  instances,  the  earlier  deeds  contained  reser\'ations  protecting  these  primitive 
graveyards,  but  in  the  frequency  of  transfers  they  have,  of  late,  been  omitted,  and,  even  when 
not,  the  occupant  has  sometimes  disregarded  his  obligation  and  leveled  them  to  the  ground. t 
However,  in  justice  let  it  be  said  that  some,  even  where  no  tie  of  blood  exists,  have  kept  these 
lots  in  repair,  and  in  other  cases,  where  circumstances  have  made  it  desirable  that  they  should 
be  abolished,  they  have  removed  all  that  remained  to  the  larger  cemeteries,  with  due  regard 
for  those  who  were  living  as  well  as  with  proper  reverence  for  those  who  were  dead.tt 

It  will  be  obser\'ed  that  no  tombstone  antedates  the  year  1709;  the  earlier  ones,  if  any 
ever  existed,  are  destroyed.  Doubtless  the  first  generation  of  settlers  had  monuments  erected 
over  their  graves,  but  whether  of  a  lasting  kind  is  much  to  be  doubted.  The  scarcity  of  graves 
made  it  no  difficult  matter  to  fix  in  mind  the  occupant  of  each,  and  it  was  only  as  interments 
increased  that  it  became  necessary  to  distinguish  one  from  another.  Hence  the  mound  of 
stones  gave  place  to  the  wooden  tablet,  and  this  in  turn  to  the  tombstone.  Among  the  oldest 
ones  time  has  made  serious  inroads,  and  before  another  decade  will  have  passed  many  will 
have  become  indecipherable.  While  the  record  of  an  interment  may  be  preserved  here,  it 
must,  sooner  or  later,  come  to  pass  that,  as  the  epitaph  becomes  obliterated,  the  exact  loca- 
tion must  be  lost,  and  for  that  I  can  see  no  help. 


THE    PRESBYTERIAN    BURYING    GROUND 

MIDDLETOWN.    N.    J. 

On  the  South  side  of  the  highway  running  through  Middletown  may  be  seen,  standing 
close  to  the  road,  an  enclosed  graveyard.  In  Summer  it  is  somewhat  obscured  by  the  dense 
gro\\'th  of  shrubs  and  weeds,  but  in  Winter,  when  the  leaves  have  fallen,  it  cannot  fail  to  attract 
attention.  It  lies  between  the  farm  of  Dr.  Edward  Taylor  on  the  West  and  the  farm  of  the 
late  Crawford  Hendrickson,  Esq.,  on  the  East.  It  was  here  that  the  Presbyterian  church  was 
erected,  and  where  in  turn  the  Rev.  Messrs.  John  Boyd,  Joseph  Morgan,  Samuel  Blair,  Elihu 
Syxjncer  and  Charles  McKnight  preached  the  gospel.  In  time,  both  pastors  and  flock  were 
dispersed,  and  the  church  fell  into  decay.  At  what  time  its  final  demolition  occurred  it  is 
hard  to  say,  but  it  was  many  years  ago.     The  tombstones  in  this  cemetery  are  in  a  singularly 

*  In  Topanemus,  a«  well  as  in  an  old  bur)'ing  ground  in  Freehold,  there  are  stones  so  badly  scaled  and  worn  as  to  render  each 
and  every  line  and  word  indecipherable. 

Topanemus  and  the  I'rcsbytcrian  hur)'in|;  ground,  of  Middletown,  are  instances  where  the  yards  have  long  outlived  the  churches.

I  am  informed  ^tcen.  Y.%r\.,  that  the  Van  Itruni  burial  ground  is  now  completely  obliterated.

fine  state  of  preservation,  owing  partly  to  the  exposed  condition  of  the  stones  and  protection 
thereby  from  dampness,  and  partly  to  the  fine  quality  of  the  stone  itself.  Of  the  exceptions 
to  this  that  exist,  the  most  conspicuous  is  that  of  the  tombstone  of  John  Bowne,  Esq.,  which 
is  badly  effaced  near  the  ground  level.  A  few  others  are  Ijeginning  to  yield  to  time,  having 
cracked  and  fallen  to  the  earth,  but  in  the  main  the  condition  of  the  plot  and  the  stones  is 
better  than  will  be  found  in  yards  of  more  recent  origin.  The  oldest  stone  in  the  yard  is  that 
of  Capt.  John  Bowne,  erected  in  171 5-16.  It  is  not  unlikely  that  some  were  interred  here 
prior  to  that  date,  of  whom  there  is  now  no  visible  record.

ants, removed  the  tombstones,  and  such  remains  as  could  be  found  in  this  lot.  to  Fairview  Cemetery.  Middletown,  N.  I.  The 
natural  obliteration  of  the  bodies  and  the  utter  impossibility  to  locate  those  buried  without  stones,  as  for  instance  the  wife  and  sons 
of  Dr.  Tallman,  made  such  a  removal  a  farce.  Surely  more  of  the  family  was  left  behind  than  taken,  and  it  is  another  instance 
of  interference,  lacking  as  much  in  sentiment  as  justice.

TOPANEMUS  BURYING  GROUND 
MARLBORO.    N.  J. 

Topanemus  was  the  name  applied,  in  the  early  history  of  this  county,  to  a  locality  origin- 
ally situated  in  Freehold  to\\Tiship.  but  now  in  Marlboro.  The  name  is  perpetuated  by  its 
application  to  an  old  graveyard  situated  on  the  farm  of  John  Vandevere. 

It  was  here  through  the  efforts  of  George  Keith,  that  a  Quaker  meeting  house  was  built 
in  or  about  the  year  1692,  which  subsequently,  when  he  repudiated  Quakerism  and  crossed 
over  to  the  established  church  of  England,  became  an  Episcopal  house  of  worship.  As  such 
it  was  used  for  some  time,  but  doubtless  later  was  either  rebuilt  or  substituted  by  another 
edifice  which  they  called  St.  Peter's. 

Topanemus  was  in  no  sense  a  settlement,  but  merely  a  church  site.  The  Rev.  Thomas 
Thompson,  writing  in  1 745-1 750,  says:  The  situation  of  Topanemus.  which  is  distant  from 
any  town,  is,  however,  convenient  enough  to  the  congregation,  and  was  resorted  to  by  many 
families  in  ^Iiddlesex  county,  &c. 

At  a  date  subsequent  to  1751,  but  prior  to  1760,  the  church  at  Topanemus  was  tom  dowTi, 
and  still  bearing  the  name  of  St.  Peter's,  was  rebuilt  in  the  village  of  Freehold.  Into  the  new 
stmcture  was  worked  a  portion  of  the  material  taken  from  Topanemus,  and  it  is  in  this  now 
old  church  that  the  Episcopal  serA-ice  is  still  conducted. 

The  site  of  the  graveyard  at  Topanemus  is  distant  some  little  way  from  the  road,  yet  can 
easily  be  seen.  Trees  and  underbrush  are  plentiful,  and  the  stones  are  moss-covered,  fallen 
and  broken,  and  some  unhappily  lost.  Of  the  origin  of  the  name  there  is  no  certainty,  but 
from  its  pecuUar  sound  it  is  presumably  Indian.

THE  ANCIENT  LIl'PIT,  OR  TAYLOR,  BURYING  GROUND 
MIDDLETOWN,  N.  J. 

This  plot  is  situated  on  the  farm  of  Mr.  Charles  Morford,  on  the  North  side  of  the  high- 
way in  the  village  of  Middletown,  about  five  rods  back  from  the  road,  directly  behind  the 
residence  of  Mrs.  Blanc.  The  ground  was  first  appropriated  for  this  purpose  by  John  Throck- 
morton, the  2d,  who,  in  his  will  written  in  1690,  makes  reservation  of  it  as  one  quarter  of  an 
acre  in  Middletown,  where  my  father  was  buried. 

This  property  passed  to  his  daughter  Sarah,  who  married  Moses  Lippit,  and  from  their 
son,  John  Lippit,  it  was  conveyed  in  the  year  1754,  to  Edward  Taylor,  always,  however,  "re- 
serving and  excepting  a  small  piece  of  ground  being  enclosed  in  the  burying  yard,  being  in 
length  about  eighty -four  feet  and  in  breadth  about  thirty  feet."  From  and  after  this  date 
it  became  also  known  as  the  Taylor  burying  ground,  which  name  it  now  bears  to  the  exclusion 
of  the  other.  In  it  are  interred  John  Throckmorton,  the  ist,  and  his  sons  John  and  Job ;  Sarah 
daughter  of  John  Throckmorton,  (2d),  and  her  husband,  Moses  Lippit,  as  also  several  of  her 
children,  and  Alice,  daughter  of  John  Throckmorton,  (2d),  and  her  husband.  Thomas  Stillwell, 
and  their  son  John  Stillwell  and  his  wife,  ;\Iercy  Burrows.  How  many  others  may  he  here 
it  is  impossible  to  state.  The  graves  of  many  of  these  enumerated  have  been  unmarked,  and 
time  has  altogether  effaced  the  mounds,  and  no  trace  exists  of  where  they  were  interred.  Some 
of  the  old  stones  have  fallen  and  others  are  fast  losing  their  epitaphs  by  reason  of  their  age, 
but  all  are  still  decipherable.

THE  HARTSHORXE  BURYING  GROUND 

MIDDLETOWN,  N.  J. 

The  yard  is  conspicuously  situated  on  the  North  side  of  the  highway  in  Middletown  vil- 
lage. There  are  few  old  stones  in  the  plot,  but  doubtless  there  are  some  early  settlers  or  their 
immediate  descendants  buried  there,  other  than  the  Hartshomcs;  such  privilege  being  ex- 
tended to  them  by  circumstances  readily  imagined.  When  Richard  Hartshor.e,  the  first, 
moved  from  Portland  Point  to  the  village  of  Middletown,  he  built  the  old  house  which  still 
stands  on  the  North  side  of  the  street,  and  which  today  is  probably  the  oldest  building  extant 
in  this  county.  Here  he  died  in  1722,  and  in  his  wi\l  made  mention  of  a  "family  burial  plot 
of  a  half  acre  on  the  street,  in  the  orchard  east  of  the  house  where  I  now  live."  Here  he  was 
buried,  though  the  knowledge  of  the  exact  site  is  lost.

The  largest  and  most  conspicuous  stone  in  the  yard,  is  today,  in  part,  indecipherable. 
The  Latin  inscription  is  crudely  engraved  and  the  stone  itself  much  worn,  making  a  perfect 
transcription  impossii)le  and  the  accuracy  of  the  translation  a  trifle  doubtful.  It  marks  the 
place  of  interment  of  the  Rev.  John  Boyd,  and,  when  the  church  was  yet  erect,  it  probably 
stood  close  to  its  walls.

QUIT   RENTS. 


The  feud  that  arose  between  the  Settlers  and  the  Proprietors  has  been,  of  late  years,  fully 
dealt  with  in  various  New  Jersey  histories,  and  it  is  only  necessary  to  briefly  outline  it  here 
for  a  proper  understanding  of  the  Quit  Rents. 

It  seems  paradoxical  to  state  that  the  sparsely  settled  to\\Tis  of  New  England  and  Long 
Island  were  crowded ;  yet,  within  a  few  years  after  their  establishment,  such  was  the  feeling 
of  their  occupants,  and  they  began  to  look  about  for  other  lands  whereon  to  settle  either  them- 
selves or  their  rapidly  growing  families.  With  this  in  view,  a  number  of  the  English  of  Graxes- 
end  sailed  to  the  Navesink  region,  December,  1663,  to  barter  for  the  lands  of  the  Indians;  but 
the  Dutch  claimed  sovereignty,  and  for  the  moment  defeated  their  aims.  Before  many  months 
elapsed,  the  long-existing  friction  between  the  Dutch  and  English  was  terminated  by  the  con- 
quest of  the  former,  who  capitulated  to  Col.  Richard  NicoUs,  who  had  been  sent  against  them 
by  Charles  II.  with  a  force  of  six  hundred  soldiers,  in  three  vessels  carrying  one  hundred  and 
fifty  guns.  NicoUs,  likewise,  bore  a  commission,  as  Deputy  Governor,  under  the  Duke  of 
York,  afterward  James  II.,  who  had  received  the  lands,  now  known  as  New  York  and  New  Jersey, 
from  his  brother,  the  king.  To  rapidly  develop  this  territory,  Nicolls  made  generous  terms 
to  the  willing  and  eager  settlers,  which  included : 

(i)  The  right  to  purchase  the  Indian  title  without  tax  of  any  kind  on  the  part  of  the  Gov- 
ernor; 

{2)  To  Ix;  free  from  all  manner  of  assessments  for  the  five  years  succeeding  the  crea- 
tion of  a  town,  which  was  obligatory,  and  at  the  expiration  of  that  period  to  be  taxed  only 
for  tlie  public  rates,  as  then  customary  among  the  English  and  Dutch ; 

(3)  To  own  the  lands  absolutely; 

(4)  To  have  freedom  of  conscience,  limited  self-government,  and  the  election  of  their 
minister,  as  well  as  civil  and  military'  oflicers. 

Not  one  suggestion  was  made  that  they  should  pay  rent  for  their  lands. 

The  tempting  pledges  held  out  by  Nicolls  produced  prompt  emigration  from  Rhode  Island, 
Massachusetts  and  New  York,  many  settlers  disposing  of  their  lands  and  laboriously  journeying 
with  their  families  and  belongings  to  the  new  Mecca. 

Upon  April  8,  1665,  Governor  Nicolls  conveyed,  to  twelve  Patentees  and  their  associates,

the  lands  now  contained  in  Monmouth  County,  and  parts  of  Middlesex  and  Ocean  Counties, 
with  a  sea-front  of  more  than  one-half  of  the  present  State  of  New  Jersey,  in  a  patent  which 
embodied  the  promises  and  stipulations  made  in  his  proclamation  of  Sept.  30,  1664. 

The  settlers  promptly  complied  with  the  terms  of  the  patent,  but  the  auspicious  condi- 
tions under  which  they  started  were  soon  marred  by  an  infringement  of  their  rights  by  new 
owners  of  the  land.  Lord  Berkeley  and  Sir  George  Carteret,  Lords  Proprietors,  who  had  bought 
the  Duke  of  York's  title  to  the  property,  and  sent  as  their  representative  Philip  Carteret, 
who  superseded  Nicolls  in  office,  and  who  promptly  promulgated  new  terms  imposed  by  his 
masters,  which  ignored  the  agreements  under  which  they  had  taken  up  the  lands.  Chief  among 
these  was  the  demand  of  the  Proprietors  for  rent,  the  right  to  which  was  resisted  and  became 
the  cause  of  great  unrest  and  revolt.  The  contention  of  the  settler  was  that  he  had  in  good 
faith  abandoned  one  home  for  another,  under  assurances  of  no  rent  for  lands  which  he  bought 
of  the  Indians,  and  for  which  he  braved  the  hardships  of  a  new  country,  the  solitude  of  a  wilder- 
ness, and  the  dangers  of  the  wild  beasts  and  savages;  while  the  Proprietors  claimed  that  the 
titles  given  by  Governor  Nicolls  were  void,  as  they  were  issued  at  a  date  subsequent  to  their 
ownership  of  the  land,  and  that  he  could  not  grant  that  which  he  or  his  master  did  not  own ; 
to  which  the  settler  demurred,  answering  that  Governor  Nicolls'  acts  were  binding  till  he  was 
relieved  of  office.  Defiance,  disputes,  appeals,  friction,  riots  and  imprisonments,  covering 
many  years  and  many  changes  of  ownership,  were  the  outcome.  One  concession  only  was 
made  on  the  part  of  the  Proprietary  interests,  namely,  a  grant  of  five  hundred  acres  of  land 
to  such  of  the  Patentees  who  had  laid  out  money  in  purchasing  the  Indian  titles.  This  was 
accepted  by  the  Patentees,  with  reservations.  The  associates,  in  fear  that  the  despotism 
which  prevailed  at  home  and  abroad  might  work  to  their  lasting  injury,  reluctantly  recog- 
nized the  Proprietory  power  by  applying  for  warrants  and  surv-eys  for  their  previous  grants, 
upon  which  Quit  Rents  were  then  levied  and  collected.
