And in James Snell's "History of Hunterdon and Somerset Counties, N. J." under the Franklin Township part, is a biography of Frederick Van Liew Voorhees, son of Jacques Voorhees and Ann Van Liew. Also a history of the Van Liew family mentions that Frederick Van Liew married Maria Voorhees, daughter of Peter Voorhees, and that after her husband's death in 1835 or 1836, she went to Batavia, Illinois to live with her daughter, Eliza McKracken. Under the Voorhees Family section are listed the children of Garret Voorhees (b. March 4, 1750) and wife Matilda Ditmars (d. March 21, 1827). Two of their children, John G. (b. 1793) who married Rebecca Van Derveer, and Maria (b. 1798) who married Daniel Polhemus, both lived in Fairview, Illinois at the time the biographical information was submitted to Snell in 1879-1880.
