    3. I am looking for any information to what happened to JOSEPH HOFF HART who was born in abt. 1810-1817. I found documentation that a Joseph Hart married Sally Hoff in 1810. I also found a Joseph Hart who wrote his will in 1817. He wrote about his son, Joseph Hoff Hart and daughter Elizabeth. He also mentioned his wife and mother, but did not give them names in the will. According to "Hart Family of New Jersey", Joseph Hart, son of Richard Hart married Sarah Huff. It also stated Richard Hart of Hopewell, married Margaret Snowden and she died in 1817 at age 92. So it is my belief that his mother, Margaret was alive when the will was made out in 1817, but died later in the year. I also have Richard's will, where he wrote about his wife Margaret, his sons Joseph, Asher and John. Joseph's will also spoke about Asher Hart as being a witness. He wrote, "To avoid a mistake my executor is Joseph Hoff (the son of Andrew and Isaac Walling (son of John) is the other meant. (last word I could not make out and think this is what was written.) If anyone has any other insight on this family, please contact me. Mel melmac7@earthlink.net
