Robert Young is the third and final soldier in this series. Next will be Phebe Willis Kitchel's Declaration, and then some notes. Again, I engaged in some minor editing here, but left everything intact. A couple of words I could not make a out are marked (?). Enjoy, Kevin Declaration of Robert Young age 87 July 3, 1838 "an aged citizen of Randolph township" I am in the 87th year of my age , since 13th February 1838. I was a soldier in the war of the Revolution & was personally well aquainted with William Willis , who was also a soldier in the same war, & who performed Militia service from 1776 until the end of the war. He married Phebe Wilson about the year 1773 or 74 , whom I know very well. She is now the widow of (?) Aaron Kitchel, who was her last husband , & who died some 12 or 14 years since. I think she was married to some other person after the death of Willis & before her marriage to Mr. Kitchel. When a young man , I worked at Boonton Iron works as a blacksmith in Col. Saml. Ogden's employ & there became acquainted with William Willis , who lived near Boonton. Phebe Wilson ,afterwords Willis' wife, lived part of her times in Col. Ogden's family & I knew they were married before the war. The first Militia service in which I remember seeing William Willis engaged was at Springfield in the month of December , 1776, at the first battle of Springfield, under Gen'l Heard's command in Colonel Ford's regiment & in Capt. Josiah Hall's company, as I believe. After the fight, Willis and his co. were stationed below Springfield a month for defense of the frontier. A number of Hessians (70 or 80) were taken prisoner by Col. Spencer, who had his horse killed under him. Captain Hall , after this term, enlisted a company of men to form 3 months & William Willis enlisted under him (?) this period in the winter & spring of 1777, in the neighborhood of Quibble town & Amboy, while the enemy lay in Amboy & Brunswick. I often saw him during that winter under Col. Seely & Gen'l Winds. There were many fights & skirmishes with the enemy that winter, in some of which Capt. Hall's co. were engaged. I recollect Willis performing a months' Militia duty in the neighborhood of Pompton & New Windsor in the fall of '77 before Burgoyne surrendered, in Hall's company, under Gen'l Winds & Col. Seely. I remember him on a months' duty at Elizabeth town in the summer of '77. He was also engaged in a months' duty at Redbank & Haddonfield near the Delaware, in Capt. Debows' company & Col. Seely's regiment. I recollect him also at the battle of Monmouth under the same officers & along the sound opposite Staten Island, between Amboy & Rahway, a month in the summer of '78. I was with William Willis on a tour of duty near Trembly's point under Col. Seely, keeping guard along the shore between the point & Blazing star ferry, in the season of green corn & early apples. I remember Willis at the battle of Acquackanonck bridge , in which Gen'l Winds commanded the Militia , aided by Colonels Seely, Hathaway, Frelinghuysen , Hays & others, in the early part of the fall. He was also with us at the battles of Springfield & Connecticut farms in 1780- the latter in May & the former in June. He was stationed below Springfield a month performing guard duty. Some of his Militia tours were performed under the immediate orders of Captain Jonas Ward, but I cannot say which of them with certainty. Besides the tours mentioned , I often saw him out on alarms , for periods of 10 or 12 days. I was also personally well acquainted with Joseph Willis , brother of William Willis, who came fron New England, working for Col. Ogden in the Boonton Iron works, slitting nail rods, which was a then a new business in New Jersey. I was then a young man, a blacksmith by trade, working in the same Iron works with the two Willises, my business being to keep their tools in good order. Here I also became acquainted with Phebe Wilson, now Mrs. Kitchel, who was much of her time in Col. Ogden's family, where she became acquainted with her husband. She is now living & is still the widow of Aaron Kitchel. Said Phebe had one child born in wedlock with William Willis before the war began & whilst we all lived at Boonton, & I think she had more than one before the war commenced , but of this I am not certain.
Here is part two. This was easier to read. I have left all place names written the way they were. Slight editing by myself consisted of breaking this into paragraphs and adding a small amount of punctuation. Declaration of James Kitchel ,esq. age 79 July 3 , 1838 I am in the 79th year of my age, was a Militia soldier of Morris county in the revolutionary war & was well aquainted with William Willis who married Phebe Wilson. Said Willis lived in Hanover township & within about 3 miles of my father's residence. We often performed Militia duty in the same company & regiments. In the summer of 1776 I was stationed at Elizabeth town point under Capt. Isaac Halsey & recollect William Willis was there performing Militia duty at the same place , under Capt. Josiah Hale & Col. Munson one month. In the fall of the same year , Willis was performing guard duty under Capt. Hall at Elizabeth town when Gen'l Washington's retreating army passed through, followed by the enemy.Hall's company, with Willis fell in the rear of the main army & retreated with them as far as New Brunswick. The Militia seperated from the main army near Brunswick & returned to Morris County by Baskingridge & Veal town. Willis was out on this tour not less than six weeks. Early in December of '76, the enemy came over from Staten Island by Elizabeth town through Connecticut Farms as far as Springfield, where Gen'l Heard, commanding the Militia, fought a battle with them. Willis was present & engaged , under Capt. Hall & Col. Munson's regiment. Col. Ford, Col. Drake , Major Bott were all present. Col. Spenser had his horse shot under him. A body of Hessians , or Waldeckers, 70 or 80 in number, were made prisoner & sent to Morristown. Willis & his company were stationed a month between Springfield & Elizabeth town performing guard duty. Whilst the enemy were encamped in New Brunswick & Amboy, Capt. Hall enlisted a company of men to form 3 months.William Willis & myself both enlisted in Capt. Hall's company for that period & served out the enlistment that winter along the lines near Woodbridge, Amboy, & New Brunswick in the winter of 1777. Gen'l. Winds commanded and was stationed near Quibble town. Colonels Seely, , Munson, Drake with their regiments were there all winter, & there was much fighting & skirmishing with patrols of the enemy. Willis & myself were discharged in the spring, having served 3 months. In May & June following I served a month near Pompton performing guard duty under the orders of Gen'l Winds & Col. Seely. Willis performed the same duty a month at that place & in its' neighborhood in Capt. Hall's company. I was with Willis a month in Bergen County near Hackensack & in an attack upon a fort called Pollifly under command of Col. Seely & Gen'l Winds. I was with Willis a month at Haverstraw on the Hudson river near the Jersey line under command of Col. Seely. There was a skirmish with the enemy there in which Willis got a knapsack from them, which by Willis was always after known & called "the Haverstraw sack". This was soon after the burning of Esopus & the taking of Burgoyne. Willis was with me on a month tour of Militia duty at & near Acquackanonck under Gen'l Winds & Col. Seely in the fall of the year. There was a severe fight with the enemy at Acquackanonck bridge- a large Militia force present . Colonels Frelinghuysen, Hathaway & Hays with their regiments. He was with me at the battle of Connecticut farms in May 1780, under the same officers & after the burning of the Church & village , the enemy retired & we guarded the lines a month near elizabeth town. I remember him at Sprinfield in the same summer (80), when a severe battle was fought & the enemy burned the Church & the town & retreated through Elizabeth town to Staten Island.Gen'l. Winds commanded the Militia & Colonels Dayton & (?) the continental troops. I believe Capt. Job Allen commanded our company at Connecticut farms & Springfield. In the sring of '81, I remember Willis on a months' tour of Militia duty at Chatham & another month in the fall season at Elizabeth town point in the fall of the year in which Cornwallis surrendered. In some of Willis' Militia duties, I believe he was under Capt. Jonas Ward's command & perhaps in some instances I may have mistaken the names of his Captain in particular tours. Willis was a New England man, employed by Col. Sam'l Ogden at Boonton Iron works & then he married Phebe Wilson before the war broke out.Willis died some 18 or 21 years after their marriage & his widow married one Howard who died after a few years & she married Barnabas Winds , who lived but a year or two & died. His widow married Aaron Kitchel, my uncle, in June 1808, with whom she lived 'till Juny 1820, when he died & the said Phebe whose first husband was William Willis before mentioned is still living & is at this day the widow of said Aaron Kitchel & is an applicant for a pension on acc't of the Militia revolutionary services of said William Willis. Enjoy and take care , Kevin

I was fortunate to have received mine through a cousin who was able to get two copies direct from Edith. I believe those were ones she had due to order cancellations. That was years ago. Edith's address (then) is in the front of the book. Edith Whitcraft Eberhart 10906 Fleetwood Drive Beltville, MD 20705 Perhaps she has more or has had another printing. BTW, I am descended from the Romine, Doremus, and Francisco families. George
As promised, here is the first of 3 Declarations of Morris County Militia men concerning their activities during the Revolution. I engaged in some minor editing, mainly breaking it down to paragraphs, and adding some incidental punctuation.This copy was a bit dark, and I could not make out some words here and there; they are noted as (?). Declaration of John Esler July 5 , 1838 age 89 I was personally acquainted with William Willis in times of the Revolutionary war and before it broke out. He and his brother Joseph Willis came form New England and worked for Col. Saml. Ogden at Boonton in Morris County at the Iron works & on the farm. I lived on the other side of the Rockaway river , which divides Hanover & Pequanock townships & distante from Willis about two miles. We often were together & I often saw him perform Militia duty under Capt. Ward & Capt. Hale at various places. I was in Capt. Jacobus and Capt. Miner's company, and we were often together on guard duty along the lines & under the same Regimental officers. I think the first time I saw William Willis on Militia duty was in the City of New York, when we were engaged in building forts for defense of the City. It was early in the spring-in March & before the war was begun & before the enemy took (?). I am not certain whether it was in the year '75 or '76. Willis was in the same company with me and Col.Munson I believe commanded the Regiment. We were engaged in this duty a month & then we were marched to Amboy where we were engaged a month performing guard duty before we were discharged. I recollect Willis another month on Militia duty at Elizabeth town under Colonel Munson, when Gen'l Washington with his army retreated through Jersey and the British followed closely on his rear,as far as New Brunswick . The Militia fell in the rear of the army & beyond Brunswick they (?) off Westward & Northward & returned to Morris County by Baskingridge. Willis was with us at the battle with the enemy at Springfield in December 1776, in Capt. Hale's company when we all performed guard duty upon the lines near Elizabeth town & Springfield. Gen'l Heard commanded Militia at the battle (?) Hessian prisoners were taken. Willis enlisted under Capt. Hall early in January '77, as I believe , to form 3 months , which engagement he fulfilled. Col. Seely commanded the Regiment & the 3 months were engaged in defending the Country around New Brunswick & Amboy against the British then in winter quartes there & on Staten Island. Gen'l Winds , Col. Munson & Col. Seely were (?) had his quarters near Quibble town. I was at (?) & (?) a month under Col. Seely in Capt. Miner's company & I recollect William Willis on the same duty (?) company in the fall of the year '77, as I believe. He was with us at Monmouth in the summer of 1778 under Col. Seely in Capt. Ward's company & performed guard duty there & along the sound opposite Staten Island (?) months. I was with him a month near Hackensack & in a skirmish with the enemy at a little fort on the hill called Pollifly under the orders of Gen'l Winds, Cols. Seely & Hathaway, in Capt. Ward's company. I was with him at the battle at Acquackanonck bridge, in which Gen'l Winds commanded the Militia , aided by Cols. Hathaway, Frelinghuysen, Seely & Hays. He was in Ward's company. He was with me a month guarding the stores at Morristown & the prisoners in the jail in the latter part of November under Capt. Mandeville. The tour at Hackensack & Pollifly Hill was in the spring season & the fight at Acquackanonck was in the fall season, I think in September. Willis was with us at the skirmish at Connecticut farms in May 1780 when the Church & village were burnt. He was in Capt. Ward's company & Gen'l Winds was in command of the Militia; Colonels Dayton & others of the army. He was stationed a month near Elizabeth town , guarding the lines in that neighborhood. I saw him also at the battle of Springfield in the summer following under the same officers when he performed the same duties, guarding the lines between Springfield & Elizabeth town a month. I recollect seeing Willis when the alarm came that the Pennsylvania line had revolted. I believe he was then under Capt. Ward's orders & I under Capt. Miner's in the spring season. We were near (?) and were detailed not less than two weeks. I was also well aquinted with William Willis' wife before & after their marriage. She was Phebe Wilson. They were married and lived together as husband & wife & had one or two children before the war began. After living together about 20 years, Willis died, & his widow maried Barnabas Winds, who lived after this marriage but a year or two, when he died , & his widow married Aaron Kitchell, about the year 1808 or 1809, who died in the year 1820. When he died , & the said Phebe still remains his widow & is the same woman who is said to be an applicant for for a pension.
Can anyone give me a URL where I an find a genealogy for THE Schuyler family. Specifically the founders of Albany NY, who intermarried with the Van Renselaers, and the Von Schlectenhorst lines... Want to research to try to establish a link between the SCHUYLER line of Hunterdon and Morris Co's., NJ., and the Upstate NY line. I know that the Bergen Co NJ line was descended from Albany.ie. Brandt and Arendt... Help... Please... Thanks, very much. Dick Carter [email protected]
I recently received the complete pension application file for Phebe Willis Kitchel, widow of William Willis.Included are Declarations from Robert Young, James Kitchel, and John Esler, all from July 5, 1838. These deal with the activities of the Morris County Militia in the Revolution. I would like to post these to the list, along with a post of some hopefully helpful notes, as they may be of interest to descendents of these men and members of Capt. Josiah Hall's company. I'll post each seperately, and start tomorrow, if no one minds. Happy New Year from warm sunny Maui. Take care , Kevin

Seeking marriage record for Phillip SCHULER/SCHUILLER/SHUILER/SCHUYLER AND ANN ANDERSON, or any variation of the name. Their first 2 children, at least, used the name of SCHULER when they married. Others used SCHUYLER.. Phillip later used the name SCHUYLER, although SHILER is shown on tombstone, and SHELER is shown on Ann's. Believe marriage occurred mid 1740's, possibly eastern Pa, NJ, upstate NY... Desperately need help. My head is getting knobby from butting the brick wall... Dick Carter [email protected]

Posted on: Morris County Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/NJ/Morris/1803 Surname: Derry, Tillyer, Francisco, Lynd, Harker, Clark, Martin, Class, Northrup, Dennis ------------------------- Hi Dennis - It sure looks like Mary and John were siblings. Mary "Polly" CLARK married into the FRANCISCO family. There were at least two earlier FRANCISCO/DOREMUS marriages so it looks like the FRANCISCO family and the DOREMUS family knew of each other and they probably both knew of the CLARK family (does that make any sense?). No, I don't have anything that will lower the "wall" any except the post from Elaine below. She has some new information that seems to help. Tim

My line from Mary "Polly" CLARK and John FRANCISCO goes through Robert Clark Francisco who is my 3rd great-grandfather. Someone suggested a few years ago that Mary's parents could be Robert CLARK and Maragreite LINES but they offered no proof of this. Do you have anything that supports this? I have John FRANCISCO's parents as being Johannes and Lena (MANDEVIL) FRANCISCO ["Some FRANCISCOs of Essex and Morris Counties, NJ" New York Genealogical and Biographical Record; 96:156-172 (1965) by George F. KENT]. To make my records more complete, who did your Maria marry? Was she b. 18 Sep 1801 in Pompton Plains? Thanks, Tim - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear List Readers, About a year ago there was some talk on the list about the availability of a listing of those people buried in the Orchard Street Cemetery in Dover.

Breese (1st husband) Straw (2nd husband) Mattox is buried there. Judy Martin in CA <[email protected]>
