J.

See the end of this message for more details.

Kelsey Jones asked ... > Curious as to which Ayers, Beardslees and Moores... I'd found in the 1870 Michigan Census. I'm researching the descendants of Gaspar Rorick (whose sons, Michael and Gaspar settled in Sussex County), so all of these descend in some way from him. Joseph AYERS or AYRES (born abt. 1812 in Sussex County) who married Hannah SUTTON (born 12 Aug 1832 in Sussex County, d/o Michael Rorick Sutton and Elizabeth Forrester) is in the household of his father-in-law (Michael Rorick Sutton), with his wife and two children, Joseph S. Ayers (14 in the census) and Augusta L. Ayers (11 in the census). His occupation is boot/shoemaker (as is his father in law). They are in Macomb County. Also, I forgot to mention in my first message that there are other Sussex County Suttons in Michigan in 1870. Susan Rorick married Lewis MOORE (1807-1853). He was born and died in Sussex County and is buried in the North Church cemetery (thank you, Nancy Pascal!). His widow emigrated to Lenawee County (joining three brothers and two sisters, their families, and the children of two brothers and their wives and one neice who all died in Sussex County leaving under-age children who were then sent to the families in Lenawee County). She remarried to a widower named Moses Vail, and she is found in 1870 with him as Susan Vail. The children of her first marriage (all last name Moore) included John A. (born about 1828), Josie (born about 1830), Jacob B. (abt. 1832), Mary R. (abt. 1834), and A.L. "Losey" Moore (abt. 1835). The sons are in the 1870 census in Lenawee County. I believe the two older sons are with their wives and children. A.L. is with his mother and stepfather. And, if anyone knows who Lewis Moore's parents were, I'd be much obliged. Finally, two daughters of Lewis Sutton and Elizabeth Losey married BEARDSLEEs. The husbands were both born in NJ, per the census, and I suspect they came from Sussex County. The wives were born there. Abigail Sutton (1829-1919) married Ebenezer Beardslee (1820-1914). They had Anna (abt. 1852), Charlotte (abt. 1853), Arabella (abt. 1855), Samuel (abt. 1856), Flora (abt. 1858), Ruth Ann (abt. 1860), Mary Ellen (abt. 1862), Lucy (abt. 1864), Carrie W. (abt. 1867), and Augusta (abt. 1874). They and the children who were alive in 1870 are listed in Independence Township, Oakland County. Susan Sutton (born 2 May 1836) married Charles Beardslee (abt. 1837). They are also in Oakland County with Ada C. (abt. 1858), Anna Eliza (abt. 1860), Rowland (abt. 1862), Charles F. (abt. 1866), and Freddie (abt. 1869). I would also like to know the parents of Charles and Ebenezer Beardslee. Was this a case of brothers marrying sisters? Hope this is helpful. Carol Ann ____________________ >> Okay, here is the connection: Ebenezer and Charles were indeed brothers. There were actually 11 children in the family. Ebenezer has a middle name of Tuttle. Their parents are Thomas and Rachel (Tuttle) Beardsley. These lines are in the Beardsley Genealogy by Nellie Judson Beardsley Holt and Charles Eleazer Holt published in 1951. If you wish more definitive information, please contact me off list as the Beardsley family was originally from England, via Connecticut and some did migrate to New Jersey and finally to Michigan. Ebenezer Tuttle Beardsley married Abigail Marie Losey Sutton and Charles married Susan Sutton. The unfortunate thing is the wives do not list who their parents are so I can't definitively state that they were sisters, however, based on the fact that Susan was born in 1836 and Abigail was born in 1829, it is more than likely they are as the Beardsley's have had a tendancy to intermarry, even within the Beardsley surname itself as well. Plus, it looks like Carol has tied the two sisters together pretty conclusively with the "Losey" name as the mother listed above and the one daughter having that as a middle name. Anyway, I can take you back to William Beardsley, the gentlemen who decided to migrate from England to America and started the whole Beardsley clan here in America--at least the ones that settled in Connecticut, that is. Can't speak for any who might have come over and settled elsewhere <g>. Besides the children listed in the census record for Charles and Susan (Sutton), there are a few more, for a total of 9 children. Ebenezer had 10 children himself. One of the 10 can be brought down some more as one line continues beyond this point. I am a Beardsley descendant myself and Ebenezer Tuttle is my 1st cousin 5x removed with "Col" Charles Beardsley as the common ancestor; however, William Beardsley is my 9th great grandfather. Which line are you from, Charles or Ebenezer? Look forward to hearing from you. Christie Trapp Christietrapp@aol.com

Does anyone have information about the "Old Dutch Church" in Washington Twp., Morris Co. near Unionville? It is shown on a map of Washington Twp. in EARLY GERMANS OF NJ by Chambers. It may also have been known as Union Church. Was it in existence in 1778?

Marsha, I've read several articles regarding the history of western New York, particularly the finger lakes area. My ancestors Ezra DeGarmo and Peter DeGarmo were among those who moved from Sussex County, NJ to Tyre, NY during the 1790's. They moved with Stephen Crane, who was likewise from Sussex County. The father of Ezra and Peter, Paul DeGarmo (1737-1820) left Sussex County, NJ around 1800 and moved westward to Randolph County, VA (now WV). If you haven't done so you may also want to check Randolph County, VA for missing relatives as there were several families who left Sussex County, NJ and went there around 1800. Bill DeGarmo

Hi, folks.... I've added the above cemetery, located in Frankford Township, Sussex County, to my web site. You'll find it starting at http://raub-and-more.com/frankfordcem/frankfordcem1.html and continuing for four pages. Jan Reuther

Many NJ families moved to Upstate NY after the Rev. War. It was still frontier land and some got military bounty land. Many Rev War vets from NJ, had been through the area with Sullivan on his march through the area against the Iroquois and saw the rich farm land. Others followed neighbors, friends, family looking for better opportunities. There are instances where neighborhoods in that area of NY were filled with the same surnames you find in NJ. My own family came from Sussex County, NJ and I have found it fascinating to see the make up of the NJ neighborhoods and how they will almost mirror neighborhoods that were established in the Finger Lakes.

GENEALOGICAL HISTORY OF BLACK FAMILIES IN ORANGE COUNTY presented by Bob Brennan Bob Brennan is Village of Otisville Historian. He has been interested in genealogy since 1981 when he gave his seventh grade Social Studies class an assignment to trace their family and he started to trace his own family. He was very interested in local history and government. Bob was appointed by Governor Carey to the Board of Trustees of Washington's Headquarters in 1977 and served for 10 years. He served on the town board of Wallkill for 16 years and was supervisor when the clean up and dedication of the Pine Hill Cemetery occurred. Bob has published two books on the records and people of the Wallkill area. Most recently Bob has been dedicating himself to compiling as much information as possible about black families of Orange County. He spends countless hours entering information into a database. The program will include The 1870 Census; 1790-1830 Census, black free heads of household; Marriages in Orange County 1908-1928; and the Genealogy of a number of different Orange County families. The program is free of charge and open to the public. If anyone has questions contact Marilyn Terry via e-mail at mvtgrterry@aol.com

Hi all, I have seen Deckers, Elstons and Clarks discussed, and I wonder if anyone knows of George R. Decker, b. Dec 1880 possibly NY, and later lived in or near Vernon in Sussec Co. He was a dairy farmer. Does anyone know which John Elston had a farm near Vernon in the late 1800's . Does anyone of a Laura B. Clark who resided in that same area in the early to mid 1900's? Were there many mills in the area? Thanks for any help, Marla
