I started my family's Newkirk genealogy and cannot find much information at all about my great-grandfather, John Henry Newkirk. I'm having more success with ancestors further back! He was born probably in Bergen February 2, 1841. His parents were Jacob Newkirk ( born: 11/26/1807) of Bergen and Elizabeth (Brinkerhoff of Ridgefield Park NJ)(born: 9/23/,1810. John Henry N. was married March 19, 1866 to Emma C. Coe of NY (I think Rockland County). They had 7 or 8 children,one of whom, Frank, is my grand-father. I would love to know when John died and where. His last child was born about 1882, so it is sometime after that. Did he serve in the Civil War? I think he outlived Emma. I have no date of her death, or where either. Any help???? THANKS! Marilyn Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
