page 11 been one of the largest land owners in Gravesend" (page 356). On 25 January, 1664, the year of the surrender of New Amsterdam to the British, Richard Stout and others purchased land at Navesink of the Indian sachem Popomora, and in April, 1666, Colonel Nicolls, the "Governor under his royal highness, the Duke of York, of all the territories in America," confirmed this purchase, and granted a patent of the whole of Monmouth and a great part of Middlesex counties unto Richard Stout and associates, who were "some of the Inhabitants of Gravesend upon Long Island." (New Jersey Archives, volume 1, page 44.) It has been said that the first local government to be established in East Jersey was organized under this grant of Governor Nicolls. (Joel Parker in Proceedings of the New Jersey Historical Society, second series, volume 3, page 19.) Smith expresses some doubt as to there being English and Dutch settlers in those parts at an earlier date than 1669. A discrepancy of twenty years is also to be noted here between the legend and! the records. In regard to an earlier settlement than that which took place in Monmouth county under the patent granted by Governor Nicolls, it has been claimed that Penelope Stout induced her husband to sail across the bay to visit her preserver and other Indian friends, and it is presumed that on such occasions they were accompanied by some of their white friends, and that about 1648, he and four or five other heads of families settled where Middletown now is. It is supposed they page 12 remained there only four or five years, being forced to leave by the breaking out of hostilities between the Dutch and Indians. "This corresponds very nearly to the time of the fearful Indian uprising in New York in 1655." (Salter's History of Monmouth and Ocean Counties.) Smith says the settlers were not forced to abandon their homes, but that their stay there was permanent. He states: "The old Indian [Penelope's preserver] used frequently to visit her; at one of his visits she observed him to be more pensive than common, and sitting down he gave three heavy sighs; after the last she thought herself at liberty to ask him what was the matter? He told her he had something to tell her in friendship, thought at the risk of his own life, which was, that the Indians were that night to kill all the whites, and advised her to go off to New Amsterdam; she asked him how she could get off? He told her he had provided a canoe at a place--which he named. Being gone from her, she sent f! or her husband out of the field, and discovered the matter to him, who, not believing it, she told him the old man never deceived her, and that she with the children would go; accordingly going to the place appointed, they found the canoe and paddled off. When they were gone, the husband began to consider the thing, and sending for five or six of his neighbors, they set upon their guard. About midnight they heard the dismal warwhoop; presently came up a company of Indians; they first expostulated, and then told them if they persisted in their bloody designs, they would sell their lives very dear. Arguments prevailed, the Indians

page 9 cluded who she must be, and some of them went to her relief. They did not have occasion to rescue her by force, as the old Indian gave her the choice of going or staying, and of course she went. Thus far I have quoted the different versions of the legend. As confirmatory evidence of the time when these events were happening, I will cite from Whitehead's East Jersey under the Proprietors. He says: "In East Jersey the greatest harmony prevailed [between the Dutch and the Indians] until, by misconduct of the colonist, the anger of the natives was aroused. In 1640, an expedition fitted out against those on the Raritan caused the maltreatment of some of the leading chiefs and led the following year to retaliatory measures upon the settlers of Staten Island, who were killed, and their plantations broken up." Peace was not restored until 1644. The troubles then existing between the Dutch and Indians would account, therefore, for the sudden and murderous attack on the shipwrecked people on Sandy Hook. The facts of history, thus far, seem to agree very well with the story. It is said that in New Amsterdam, whither she had gone after her rescue, Penelope Van Princes became acquainted with Richard Stout and soon afterwards married him. "She was now in her twenty-second year and he in his fortieth." If the date of her birth, as given in Benedict's history, is correct, her marriage took place in 1624. As Richard Stout was then in his fortieth year, he would have been born in 1584. But as his will, which is recorded in Trenton, is dated 9 June, page 10 1703, and was probated 23 October, 1705, this age is probably wrong, as well as the date of his marriage in 1624. If it be assumed, however--as in the stranding of the vessel on Sandy Hook--that there is a same error of about twenty years in the date of their marriage, it would have taken place about 1644. We shall have corroboration of this in the time when the two oldest children came of age. In fact, there seems to run through the whole story an error of antedating of about twenty years. After their marriage the career of this couple was associated more or less intimately with the settlement of Monmouth county, New Jersey. Smith tells us that a while after marrying they lived together at Middletown, among other Dutch families. On the authority of Nathan Stout we learn that, "immediately after her marriage with Richard Stout, they crossed the Bay and settled Middletown, and this was in 1648. There were then but six white families, including the Stouts, in the settlement." This statement of Nathan Stout has caused some dissension as to the actual time when Middletown was first settled. Richard Stout's name is found among the patentees to whom Governor Kieft issued, 19 December, 1645, the patent for the settlement at Gravesend, Long Island. (New York Genealogical and Historical Record, 1885, volume 16, page 102.) Thompson, in his History of Long Island, gives a list of the inhabitants and "probably freeholders" of Gravesend in 1656, and among them is the name of Richard Stout. Salter says that "in 1657 Richard Stout seems to have

page 7 vessel therefore, according to Smith, seems fixed to the time of the Pequod war, or about 1640. Benedict's account says that Penelope Stout "was born at Amsterdam, about the year 1602; her father's name was VanPrincis; she and her first husband (whose name is not known) sailed for New York (then New Amsterdam) about 1620; the vessel was stranded at Sandy Hook." There is an error in these dates of about twenty years, as I shall try to prove later. The story from this source goes on to relate that all the shipwrecked people were safely landed from the stranded ship. But Penelope's husband, who had been sick for most of the voyage, was taken so ill after getting on shore that he could not travel with the rest. He was hurt in the wreck and could not march. The others were so afraid of the Indians that they would not stay with him until he recovered, but hastened away to New Amsterdam, promising to send relief to him as soon as they should arrive. The wife alone remained behind with her husband. Nathan Stout says: "The passengers from the ship were all butchered by the Indians after they had gotten ashore, all save Penelope Princes." The couple were left on the beach (Benedict says: "They tarried in the woods"), and the others "had not been long gone, before a company of Indians coming down to the water side, discovered them [Penelope and her husband]. . . . and hastening to the spot, soon killed the man, and cut and mangled the woman in such a manner that they left her for dead: (Smith), and afterwards stripped them of their clothing. The wife's page 8 "skull was fractured, and her left shoulder so hacked, that she could never use that arm like the other; she was also cut across the abdomen, so that the bowels protruded; these she kept in with her hands." After the Indians were gone, the wife revived and crawled into a hollow tree, or log, where she remained for several days (one account says she remained there for shelter seven days), subsisting on whatever she could find to eat. The Indians had left some fire on the beach, and this she kept burning for warmth. At length two Indians, an old man and a young one, came to the shore and saw her. Nathan Stout says an Indian who was passing that way with a dog discovered her. In the words of Benedict: "She saw a deer passing by with some arrows sticking in it, and soon after two Indians appeared, whom she was glad to see, in hope they would put her out of her misery." The Indians, as she afterwards learned, disputed what should be done with her. The old man wished to keep her alive; whilst the younger wanted to kill her. The former had his way, and, taking her on his back, carried her to a place near where Middletown now stands, and dressed her wounds and soon healed t! hem. After this, Benedict says, he conveyed her to New Amsterdam and made a present of her to her countrymen. Nathan Stout says he sold her to the Dutch at New Amsterdam. But another account, which is more in keeping with the character of the Indians, as we know its, says the Dutch at New Amsterdam, hearing of a white woman being among the Indians, con-

This didn't seem to get on the Monmouth List. I'll send it in installments. First installment is below-- Patty Myers The following material is verbatim from The Stout Family of Delaware: with The Story of Penelope Stout, compiled and published by Thomas Hale Streets, Philadelphia, PA 1915. Please note that there are a number of footnotes in this book. I have put the references to them in parentheses in the text, and then they are shown at the bottom of the page. page 5 The story of Penelope Stout--one of those thrilling stories of capture by and of rescue from the Indians, which were so often associated with the early settlements of our country--has been preserved in the memory of her numerous offspring, wherever found, for more than two hundred and fifty years. It reads more like romance than reality. The marriage of Penelope Stout serves as a date for the beginning of Dutch and English history in East Jersey, and no account of the first settlement of Monmouth county would be complete with her story left out. I propose to show that much of the legend is capable of verification by the undisputed events of history and by the records of the county courts. Probably the earliest historian to refer to the story was Samuel Smith, in his History of the Colony of Nova Caesaria, or New Jersey, published in 1765. Another version, said to have been written about 1790, is given in Benedict's History of the Baptists. There is a third account by Nathan Stout, entitled A Small Genealogical Account of the Family called Stout. At the conclusion of his narrative the writer says: "I now close this history, which I began in the seventy-third year of my age. I have ended it in the seventy-fifth, and my name is Nathan Stout, the fifth son of John Stout, who was the first son of James Stout, who was the first son of David Stout, who was page 6 the seventh son of Richard." The history was begun in 1821, and was completed in 1823. Nathan Stout states that he was born in 1748. He died in 1826(1). Of the more modern writers, Ellis, in his History of Monmouth County, and Salter, in his History of Monmouth and Ocean Counties, give the story more or less prominence. The former characterizes it--to the great indignation of the Stout descendants--as a romance. It is, however, too well authenticated by the thruths of history to be viewed altogether in such a light. Mellick incorporated it in his Story of an Old Farm, and it forms one of Frank Stockton's Stories of New Jersey. Smith begins his narrative in the following manner: "While New York was in possession of the Dutch, about the time of the Indian war in New England, a Dutch ship, coming from Amsterdam, was stranded on Sandy Hook." Now the only Indian war which occurred in New England while the Dutch were in possession of New York, was the Pequod war, which began in 1636 and ended in 1637, and resulted in the almost complete destruction of that tribe. So severe was the lesson taught the Indians by that war that peace continued between them and the white settlers for nearly forty years, or until King Philip's war in 1671. The Dutch surrendered New Amsterdam to the English in 1664. The date of the stranding of the (1)Nathan Stout was commissioned captain in the Second Regiment, Hunterdon County Militia, 1 May 1776.

Many thanks to all who responded to my question. It's been an interesting subject. I'm working with a friend who has info telling him his ancestor was born in Lakewood in 1756 -- clearly, there's some sort of problem with that as Lakewood didn't exist in 1756! <g> And while I'm here --- can anyone tell us why a fella residing in Mon. Co. would serve in the Revolution under Somerset Co. and further, is there some sort of source that would provide proof of him being in Somerset Co. at that time? Thank you everyone -- you're a GREAT bunch of folks -- Terri

One of my purposes in posting all of this 1860 census info was to disseminate it as widely as possible to those who cannot get to NJ, or LDS centers, libraries, etc. I am interested in knowing how many , if any, have saved the postings so the posts can be shared with others or their local libraries. If you are one who has saved this info, please send me a BRIEF email and state where in the process you began to save the pages (page number and Twp., please) BURLINGTON CO. NJ, 1 Sept. 1860, PO Mt.

I keep hoping to find someone who knows about my Drakes in Monmouth Co. My great-grandfather, Joseph Cullen Drake, was born in Monmouth co. in 1834, the son of Samuel A. Drake. The family lived for a long time in Somerset co. As an old man, Samuel Drake was living with his daughter, Susan Drake who married a John White who was a carpenter living in Monmouth co. {1880 census} I think a Jeremiah or Jerry Drake, also a carpenter, may belong to the same family.

Hi Genie: Thank you for the interesting data on James Grover. Is this the same James Grover who was a farmer & wheelwright in Tinton Falls on a branch of the Navesink River about 2.5 miles south of Shrewsbury and discovered bog iron there before 1674? If so, see my article on Leonard Siblings at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~bart. About 1/6 of the way through the article it mentions James Garver's dealings with Henry Leonard, Cornelius Steenwick & Lewis Morris.
