Interesting presentation of life in the 1700's Raritan Landing -- mentions name of Lafert Sebring and Phillip French but gives no information on them. One write-up does imply that baptism might occur at any of several churches since this area didn't have its own church- - http://www.raritanlanding.com/voices/voices.htm Example of the 1st person presentation that is used. MARGARET DEGROOT FIELD I MARRIED BENJAMIN FIELD at the Landing and we inherited his aunt's house along the causeway when she died in 1784, but I had my own land, too. My father, Jacob Degroot, didn't believe that only the oldest son should get all the property. When he made his will in 1749, it said my younger brother, sister, and I were to divide equally among us the meadows in Somerset County joining the Bound Brook and also the meadows of Lafert Sebring. . . .
