As some of you noticed, the entire census for Sussex county is not yet online. There are three townships still being proofread - Wantage, Vernon and one other (perhaps Montague?) Keep trying that URL and/or I will post to the list as the others become available. I'm about 1/4 the way through proofreading Wantage now - it's a very populous place <grin> Happy Hunting, Cathy DiPietro vdpcom@warwick.net listowner: NJSussex
Hi Group~ I am looking for ties to John CHAMBERLAIN or CHAMBERLIN b. 1758 probably in Amenia, NY. His father was also John Chamberlain, who m. Margaret or Matilda Atherton of Dutchess Co, NY or possibly the Wyoming Valley PA area. Sometime after the Revolutionary War, I am quite sure the first John b. 1758 m Eleanor Kinnan or Canaan. Daughter of John Kinnan. Eleanor was said to have been born in NY and I have reason to believe it was the Orange Co., NY. A John Chamberlain shows up first in Hardiston township in 1790, and then Newton later.John and Eleanor's son John b. 1784 was definitely married in Newton, Sussex Co, NJ. My question is...was the John Chamberlin listed in the 1790 tax list in Hardiston, my John Chamberlain, I am looking for as father to John b. 1784? How can I prove who John b. 1784's father was? I have by family tradition it was: Descendants of John Chamberlain 1 John Chamberlain b: Bet. 1735 - 1740 in CT or NY d: in Amenia, NY or NJ? . +Matilda or Margaret Atherton b: Bet. 1735 - 1740 in MA/CT d: Amenia NY or NJ ? . 2 John Chamberlain b: Bet. 1758 - 1762 in NY d: in ? .... +Eleanor Canaan b: Abt. 1765 in NY d: in ? Father: John Canann .... 3 John Chamberlain b: July 02, 1784 in NJ? d: August 06, 1845 in Bradford, Rock Co., WI ....... +Mary Little b: November 23, 1791 in Newburg, NY(?) m: September 22, 1808 in Newton, Sussex Co, NJ d: Aft. 1871 in Rock Co, WI Father: Mathias Little Mother: Elizabeth Beardsley Do any of these names look familiar to other Sussex Co researcher's? My John was pretty much ruled out as being the Brother of Benjamin who showed up in Sparta.

I wrote to a friend Virginia Chardavoyne(an old Vernon township name), Corwin and got this response.She says that there was a King Corvanus,possibly Spanish, that some folks believe is the origin of the name,but no one has been able to make the connection. Oh well, I tried. Gert

I forgot to write down the date but believe this comes from the Sussex Independent newspaper of January 1880: A Murder in Newton On Monday evening, 16th inst., Melancthon WASHER and David, his cousin, both of Sparta, visited Newton. During the evening David was around town in the company of a woman of ill repute named Amanda SNOVER. The pair were seen in conversation near the depot, by three young roughs named Michael KANE, Clarence CAMPBELL and John CLARK, whose aged range from 19 to 21 years, and who, seeing Washer was a stranger, commenced to annoy him and endevouring to draw him into a quarrel. Washer paid little attention however and with the woman started to go up town. He had not gone very far when he turned and cuffed Kane's ears, who with the other two were following him and using very abusive language. On their way up town Washer and the Snover woman were met by his cousin Melancthon and a young man named William COURSEN, and then all four proceeded up town together, closely followed by Kane, Campbell and Clark, who by this time had become very infuriated on account of the manner in which Kane had been handled. On arrival in front of the Kimble building, Melancthon, who was walking with Coursen just in front of Washer and Snover, was suddenly felled by a stone of slung shot, crushing in his skull. The assailants fled, and Washer's companions carried him to the office of Dr. MILLER, where his wound was dressed. He was taken to his home near Sparta. Although everything possible was done to save his life, he grew worse and died at 2 o'clock on Friday. His funeral took place on Sunday and was attended by a large number of persons. Melancthon Washer was well known and highly respected in Sparta and vicinity and his death is universally regretted. He was not in any way concerned with the fracas between his cousin and the young trio who caused his death. On Tuesday the case was placed in the hands of Officer SMITH. The first arrested was Clark, who was in the employ of John B. LOSEY. Mr. Losey gave bail for Clark's appearance at Court. Kane and Campbell had fled from the town, but on Wednesday the former was captured near Franklin. Campbell is supposed to have hid in Newton until Thursday night, when it is thought that he walked to Drakestown and boarded a coal train, working his way to Newark, and on Friday morning about 2 o'clcok he was arrested in the Hoboken ferry house by an officer who had a description of him. Constable Smith, of Newton, was notified and taking the 12:45 train he returned with the prisoner at 8:40 on Saturday night and placed him in the jail. On account of the death of the father of the Prosecutor of the Pleas, the Coroner's inquest was postponed until Saturday of this week. Cathy DiPietro vdpcom@warwick.net listowner: NJSussex-L
Sussex Register newspaper dated Weds. 9 Nov 1892 Probable Suicide William Crabtree, who owned a farm at the junction of the Glenwood and Vernon highways, in Vernon township, was found dead in his bed last Wednesday. He had been drinking heavily of late, and on the preceeding Sunday had an altercation with his wife, which finally culminated in blows, and which resulted in his arrest. He was released on bail. His wife, fearing a repetition of the scene, took refuge with a neighbor. Tuesday evening he returned to his home and retired as usual. In the morning, the discovery was made that he was dead. On searching the premises, outside his room, a small vial was found, near the bedroom window containing a protion of strychnine, which would imply that his death was the result of suicidal intent. Mr. Crabtree was 65 years of age, and is survived by his wife, and one daughter, the wife of Mr. Vealy, son of the late John Vealy, of Vernon township. Hope this helps, Cathy DiPietro vdpcom@warwick.net listowner NJSussex-L (PS - seems to me that the poison would have been found nearby the bed or close to where it was added to the drink, not out the window.....hmmm)

Got a chuckle out of this one from the Sussex Independent newspaper dated Friday, 5 Sep 1879 (I'm pretty sure they're not MY relatives but.....they might be <grin>) Very Neighborly The people of the neighborhood of Quarryville have been enjoying a sensation for the past week or two. It seems that a certain farmer, whom we will call Brown, owned a large piece of woods which he desired to have cut off, and applied to a neighbor, whom we will call Jones, to do the work, offering him one-third of the wood, etc. for doing it. Jones accepted the offer and cut off the woods. One day last week Jones went over after a load of chips, but just as he was going to leave with the load Brown came over and objected to him taking them on the ground that chips were not mentioned in the contract. Jones paid no attention and went on, but was surprised when he had gone on a little futher to find that Brown had blocked the road with railroad ties and refused to allow him to pass. Jones then got out of the wagon and choked Brown into submission. But when Jones came along with the next load of chips he found the road blocked again at the same place and in the same manner and guarded by Brown and his workman, who had resolved to fight it out. Loud and unholy words passed between the men, which came to the ears of Mrs. Jones, who was engaged in domestic affairs at her house near by. Mrs. Jones, who is a large, muscular woman and as plucky as a Zulu warrior, picked up her infant from the cradle, rushed to the scene of action, and after taking in the situation, placed her infant in her husband's arms, rolled up her sleeves, collared the biggest half of a broken rail that lay near by and sailed into Brown at the rate of ten cracks a second. They squirmed and yelled and swore, but she "cleaned 'em out" and finally waltzed them up to the pile of ties and made them clear the way rapidly. This was a terrible set back for Brown and he has brought suit against the Jones, which will be tried in Colesville, before Justice Hoffman. The date of the trial has not yet been set. Michael Kimble, Esq. has been engaged by the Jones. We have not learned who Brown has secured. I read forward for four more months but ran out of time before finding out the real names of the partied involved. Happy Hunting, Cathy DiPietro vdpcom@warwick.net listowner: NJSussex-L
Thought this one might be of interest to some as he had 21 kids: Sussex Independent newspaper dated Friday 30 Jan 1880 Robert Stoll, of Peters Valley, in this county, died suddenly on Sunday, 18th, of a fit of apoplexy with which he was seized on the Saturday evening previous while conversing with his family in his usual good health. He was one of the oldest men of the county and highly respected. He was born in the township of Frankford in 1802 and was therefore in the 78th year of his age. He has been a merchant the greater part of his life, but always had more or less to do with farming. He had been married four times and was the father of twenty-one children. We gather from the pen of William M. VanSickle, of Montague, that his first wife was Mary STRUBLE, by whom he had fourteen children, his second was Sarah MARVIN, by whom he had one son, his third, Lydia VanNOY, by whom he had six, and his fourth was the widow of Moses HULL, of Walpack, who survives him. Seven sons and six daughters are still living, among which are Deputy Sheriff Henry C. Stoll, of Newton; A. S. Stoll, Peters Valley; James M. Stoll, Hainesville; Oscar P. Stoll, Montrose, Pa.; and Robert S. Stoll. Blairstown. The deceased never joined any church, we understand, but he was a firm believer in the Christian religion, his religious views not being very clearly defined to correspond with any one denomination, but taking on the mixed character of Unitarian, Christian and Universalist. He was buried at Peters Valley on Wednesday, the 12st, Elder G. F. Hawk, of the denomination known as Christian, officiating. Thus hath passed away one of the oldest citizens of the county at an age when it would seem in most cases that death cometh as a blessing.
From my research on the Price family I have that John Stoll was b. c. 1788 son of Abraham Stoll and Elizabeth Price. Elizabeth Price was the daughter of Judge Francis Price and Esther Dunn and granddaughter of Samuel Price and Sarah Perrin, early settlers in Frankford and buried in Frankford Plains Cemetery. --------- 104. Elizabeth Price b. 12 Nov 1764 (bible record) m. Abraham Stoll son of John Stoll and Jane Ten Eyck (TenEyke, etc.). Abraham Stoll d. intestate (Sussex County 509) 1791. Elizabeth m. (2)Gershom Bowman b. 17 Sept 1747 (Andrew and Ann Case Bowman bible) son of John Bowman. The Will of Elizabeth's father gave 3/16 of the real estate to Elizabeth, 1/32 to Francis Stoll, 1/32 to John and Abraham Stoll, which included the "farm where John Boss now lives" assigned to them in the division, and residuary interests in the land given to the widow, John Lesh, and Jerusha DeWitt as life estates. In a deed (L:280) with the same date as the division (23 June 1804), James and Sarah Hamilton, Gershom and Elizabeth Bowman, and Nathan and Azuba Goble sold their residuary interests to Francis Gustin, Thomas Gustin Jr., and John Gustin Jr. This gave the Gustins 15/16 of their residuary interest, which was later conveyed to their father John Gustin (O:303, R:753). In 1811 John Gustin bought the remaining residuary interests: 1/32 from Francis Stoll on 4 Jan 1811 (V:572), 1/64 from Abraham Stoll on 15 June 1811 (W:696), and 1/64 from John A. Stoll of Tioga County, New York on 26 Oct 1811 (X:409). On 18 Mar 1813 Gershom and Elizabeth Bowman sold 98.25 acres on which they were living, and which was Elizabeth's part of the division tract to Abraham Dunning (L2:227). This was in eastern Frankford township near the Wantage township line. Elizabeth d. 5 July 1838 (Andrew and Ann Case Bowman bible) and Gershom d. 17 Oct 1839 (Andrew and Ann Case Bowman bible) place of interment unknown. 224. Francis Stoll b. c. 1786. 225. John A. Stoll b. c. 1788. 226. Abraham Stoll b. c. 1790. 227. Mary Ann Bowman b. c. 1792. 228. George Bowman b. 23 July 1794 Frankford township. 229. Andrew Price Bowman b. 6 Mar 1798 Frankford township. 225. John A. Stoll b. c. 1788 is perhaps the John Stoll who m. 7 Mar 1812 (Sussex County marriage record) Mary Dennis. The Will of his grandfather Price gave 3/16 of the real estate to his mother, 1/32 to Francis Stoll, 1/32 to John and Abraham Stoll, which included the "farm where John Boss now lives" assigned to them in the division, and residuary interests in the land given to the widow, John Lesh, and Jerusha DeWitt as life estates. In a deed (L:280) with the same date as the division (23 June 1804), James and Sarah Hamilton, Gershom and Elizabeth Bowman, and Nathan and Azuba Goble sold their residuary interests to Francis Gustin, Thomas Gustin Jr., and John Gustin Jr. This gave the Gustins 15/16 of their residuary interest, which was later conveyed to their father John Gustin (O:303, R:753). In 1811 John Gustin bought the remaining residuary interests: 1/32 from Francis Stoll on 4 Jan 1811 (V:572), 1/64 from Abraham Stoll on 15 June 1811 (W:696), and 1/64 from John A. Stoll of Tioga County, New York on 26 Oct 1811 (X:409). This was in eastern Frankford township near the Wantage township line. John and his brother Abraham sold 19.97 acres on 18 Mar 1812 from their share of the land division received from their grandfather Price to Obadiah Pellet. The deed was apparently unrecorded, but is referred to a month later when Obadiah Pellet sold the 19.97 acres together with the 81.37 acres he acquired from their brother Francis Stoll to William Struble (S2:357). On 20 Mar 1813 John A. Stoll and his wife Mary and Abraham Stoll sold 14.10 acres from the division to Abraham Dunning (L2:225). John A. is now described as living in Frankford township, evidently having returned from Tioga County, New York. John A. Stoll and Andrew Stoll purchased a 1/2 acre lot in the village of Augusta on 18 Mar 1845 (F4:11). On 14 Apr 1846 John A. Stoll and his wife Mary sold their 1/2 interest to Andrew Stoll. The 1850 census of Frankford township lists a John A. Stoll, age 62, living in the household of William A. Strader. ---------- Present Chemung County, New York was formed from present Tioga County, New York and Stulls were early settlers in Chemung County, specifically the town of Southport and I have always believed Stull and Stoll to be one and the same though I have never attempted to do further research. I am descended from Andrew Price Bowman, half brother to John A. Stoll. Andrew Price Bowman resided in Wells Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania which borders the Town of Southport. There is perhaps some confusion in researching the Stoll family since there were more than one John and more than one Abraham. Someone was researching Chilleon Stoll and I thought I saved her name and email, but I can't seem to locate it. J.

> Is the Old Beemer Church Cemetery (Beemer Meeting House Cemetery) > located just northwest of the intersection of Routes 637 and 565? Bob, There are two Beemer Church Cemeteries. One is right behind the church just off 519, corner of 649. Space Farms Zoo & Museum is just across the highway. Just south of the church cemetery is the Old Beemerville Cem. Probably accessed by Crigger Rd. It's not shown on my map, but I remember when I was there abt 3 yrs ago. According to the copy I have, it's located on the "road to Culvers".

Dear list members, Can any of the researchers of the STOLL family, working on Sussex Co, offer a suggestion as to what other counties or states I might search for STOLL's in 1800, and earlier? I am still trying to identify the parents of John STOLL, b. Jan 16, 1788 in NJ. On March 7, 1812, in Sussex Co, NJ, he married Polly (Mary) DENNIS, b. March 8, 1794. In spite of what is on the internet, the only two known children, based on our family bible, are sons, Chillion, b. abt. 1814, location unknown, and Andrew, b. May 9, 1824, near Andover. I have a STOLL family photo album that has various STOLL family members and friends. Photographs were taken in Port Jervis, and Watkins, NY, Newton, NJ, and Philadelphia and Pottsville, PA, among others. I believe most of these photos were taken after 1820. I've tapped out Watkins and probably Newton, but found nothing in Port Jervis, Philadelphia or Pottsville. Are there other STOLL researchers with ties to these communities? Of the STOLL's that were in Sussex Co in 1800, where did they come from? Thank you for any help you can provide. Regards, Mary in Michigan
Dear Laurie, The betrothal of Coert Jansen's parents is on page 267 of the new Voorhees edition of the Flatbush church records: "Andereis Jansen, young man from New York, and Hendericktie Mijnders, young woman from [New] Utrecht] and residing there [were betrothed on] 25 Jan 1690." "Mijndert", the son of Isack LeFever and Wijntie Mijnders, was baptized on 16 Mar 1690 at Flatbush. The witnesses were Mijndert Coerten and Maria [Pia] Mijnder. Wyntie Mijnderts and Hendrickje Mijnderts must have been sisters. Andreis Jansen [aka Andrew Johnson] and Hendrickje Mijnderts had at least 3 children, but I was able to find the baptism only of Meindert (who was baptized at Brooklyn on 6 Apr 1696). 1. Mary Johnson m. Jan Amack 2. Coert Johnson m. Geertje Lane, d/o Arien Lane and Martyntje Smock 3. Meindert Johnson m. Catherine Morford, the d/0 John Morford and Margaret _______ Andreis Jansen moved from Long Island to Middletown, Monmouth Co., NJ before 1720. "John Aumuck" of Freehold, Monmouth Co., weaver" wrote his will on 23 Jan 1720, and it was proved 21 Jun 1721. His 3 children were given as Ionaytye [Jannetje?], Andrew, and Tunis. The executors were John's wife Mary [Johnson]; her father, Andrew Johnson; and John Amak's brother, Tunis "Aumuck". Teunis Amak was married to Helena Laen. They had 4 children baptized in the Freehold church: Janneke in 1723; "a child" in 1725; Elisabeth in 1733; and Aphie in 1735. Can you tell me where this Helena fits into our LANE family? Finally, I have been unable to find a will for Coert Johnson. However, I note that "Andries Johnson of Greenwich, Sussex County, NJ" wrote his will on 10 Feb 1777, and it was proved on 26 Mar 1777. In it Andries mentions two sons -- Court and David. Do you think Andreis was the son of Coert and Geertje and the younger Court their grandson?
