Marty Hiatt and others I have been trying to make a connection from the New Jersey area RIGHTMIRE family...Somerset, Hunterdon, Morris, Middlesex Counties to the small band of RIGHTMIRE'S in the Loudoun Virginia area in the late 1700's for some time....Other distinctive names that I see on the Loudoun list that I have recognized as names in New Jersey are BIRD, GULICK and BEAVERS ...these come to mind...probably others. I still do not know if Rightmire is Palantine German or Dutch. I do know that Rightmire's in New Jersey married into Dutch families such as Van Pelt. Vorhees, Speder and probably otherspretty regularly.
