Re: my GOULD, PARKER & MASSACRE lines in Morris County I may visit Morris County during the first week of July. Where would I go to search for Deeds (c. 1930 back)? Where would I go to search for Wills (c. 1930 back)? Will I be able to pull an index and then a Deed/Will ... as I can in many MA counties? My people were in early Dover, Boonton, Pequannock (sp?), Rockaway ... and perhaps other places. Are any of these towns places where the area is still country-ish? Or are all cities now? Where would be nice place to stay which would be close to these places ... something like a Holiday Inn or a Motel 6? Thank you! Betty G. Middleboro, MA

Hi, I haven't been on this list for quite a while. I decided to once again tackle my PARKER/GOULD/MASSACRE lines. I am particularly interested in my GOULD line. I have a marriage cert. from my ancestors, John A. GOULD of Pequannock, who m. Elizabeth MASSACRE of Pequannock, on July 31, 1830, at the First Presbyterian Church, Rockaway, NJ, by the Rev. Barnabas King, D.D. It is possible that John's middle name is "C." In the letter (dated 1997), it says that Rockaway Borough and Township were part of Pequannock Township. That parish covered approximately a ten-mile radius. I have Elizabeth's line, but I have never gotten a definitive answer as far as the name of John A. GOULD's parents. This is my quest. My x-grandmother, Catherine GOULD Parker, was in the newspaper, in Dover, NJ, re: the GOULD Association (she was the president for many years), and mention of her Revolutionary War GOULD ancestors. I have found (and have) copies of (Rev. War) pensions for various NJ/NY GOULD applications from the Nat. Archives ... but I don't know which is the correct patriot. The letter (re: the marriage, above) ends by saying that there may be a marriage application for John A. GOULD and Elizabeth MASSACRE at the Pequannock Town Hall, 530 Newark-Pompton Turnpike, Pompton Plains, NJ. Does anyone on the list live close to the Pequannock Town Hall who could check that out for me? (The letter in 1997 was signed W. R. Monroe, Jr., Sec., Cemetery Comm.). Finally, the line from them to me is: John A. GOULD m. Elizabeth MASSACRE (m. 1830) their dau., Catherine GOULD (b. c. 1838), m. Obadiah S. PARKER John C. PARKER (b. 1859) m. Mary SIMISTER Frances PARKER (b. 1882) m. Francis W. CROWLEY Mary Parker CROWLEY (1907) m. C. Stewart CAMPBELL Betty CAMPBELL is my Mom, b. 1928. My PARKERs left NJ and settled in New Bedford, MA. I had noted that John A. GOULD's parents were John Abraham GOULD & Catheriene COUGHLIN (his second wife). I just don't have a definite answer. I am also seeking the rest of this GOULD line. I have some names, but no backup. Thanks so much! Betty Govoni Middleboro, MA

Hi list, I'm hoping someone on the list can help. I'm planning a visit to Morris County later this month and was hoping to visit these churches where my ancestor Rev Frederick Dellicker was pastor. Are they still in existence and are the records available at a library or historical society? I'd like to find his marriage record from 1772 and the birth record of his son in 1776 also. Thank you for any advice or help. Sandy

Hi, What would be the preferred procedure for looking up someone in the NJ state census? I am heading to Morristown library today or tomorrow to look at the NJ state census on microfiche. Last time I went, I only found an index for the census for NJ (fed 1890) but I did not see an index for the NJ census (1885, 1895, 1905, 1915), does one exist? Is there an electronic version? There is a book for Morris County (NJ 1885) in the card catalog, I will look for that. Thanks Dave Wisneski

I'm looking for information on a Martin Vanderhoof who was a shoe dealer of Court St Morristown from about 1880 onwards. His son, Charles ran the business in his father's later years and after Martin's death (1910-20) Martin's wife was Ameila and he had daughters Harriet(Hattie) whose married name was Wier and Elsey who married James Hall. Thanks Terry HJ
Do you know who Martin's parents were? I am looking for information on Phoebe Jane Vanderhoof who married George David Wallace Hill. She was born 7/19 1853 and died 5/20/1910 in Morris Plains. She would be my husband's great grandmother.

Jesse Smith's dau., Mary Smith married Henry Clark in 1781. Does anyone know anything about this Jesse Smith? There seems to be more than one Jesse Smith. Maybe, one of Henry Clark's researchers has figured this line out. Thanks, Ann
Come join us for the First Historic Tour of the First Reformed Church of Pompton Plains Cemetery, Newark-Pompton Turnpike, Pompton Plains, N.J. on June 1, 2003 at 1 P.M. Rain date is June 22, 2003 at 1 P.M.. This is a benefit for the Pequannock Historical Society & the History Office of the First Reformed Church of Pompton Plains. Meet in front of the Church Sanctuary. Donation of $7.00 ($5.00 to the Church and $2.00 to the Pequannock Historic Society) Tour to be conducted by Dr. Bea Kettlewood and Ed Engelbart. First come, first serve. Only 25 spots available. Contact Ed at (973) 839-6384. ------------------------------- [My Comments Below] There is a lot of intersting people buried in the cemetery and a lot of history in the church itself. This is something really neat to be a part of. Many people from around this area of morris & Passaic counties, (not just Pompton Plains/Pequannock) are buried here. I hope this leads to additional "Historic Tours". The church is at 529 Newark Pompton Turnpike, easily accessible from Route 23 North in Wayne (exit for newark-pompton turnpike/Pequannock and stay on the turnpike for about 4 miles, town hall parking lot on the right) or from Route 23 south [just south of Riverdale/Route 287], exit for newark pompton turnpike/Pompton Plains (Not Riverdale). Town Hall will be on the left about 2 miles. Then, stay for the free concert [rain or shine) inside Friendship Hall (directly next to the church itself on the church grounds) at 4:00 pm by the 119 year old Bloomingdale Cornet Band (marches, Broadway, patriotic songs, etc.).

Hi Joan, I have a stonewall that perhaps you can help me with. My greatgrandfather John E. Bush (brn. 1820) is our lost soul. I have him in Chester Census 1870 with wife Clarrissa Weise Bush (brn. 1835) ,and dau. Alfretta, 9 mo. They were mar. in 1865. I have found nothing on him since then. However my grandmother Mary Bush Stillwell, and sister Martha Bush Day were their children, and brn before 1875. I am looking for his death record and believe he died after 1875. Have not found him in census records since. Clarrissa Bush listed as widow in 1910 and had three children. She died in 1918 and is buried at Naughright, Morris Co.
