>From the actual pension application - "She is the daughter of John Jerolman was born in Bergen Co. N.J., near where the Town of Paterson now is - her father moved from there to Sparta, in Hardiston, Sussex Co. when she was about 12 years old - she was married at that place by Revd. Mr. Cox, a Baptist minister in the year 1773 on the 20th day of December to Thomas Hill, who then lived in Sparta & with whom she lived in the bonds of marriage until his death, which was on the 18th August 1814, according to the record of births, marriages, & deaths of her family, as contained in the family bible kept by her husband & witnessed by him, which bible is now in her possession & from which the date of her own age & marriage & the time of her husbands death, are now taken." Hence, Jerolman and not Judman per below. Jerolman evolved into the spelling Joralemon in Sussex County, one of at least 11 different spellings now in this country of this name believed to have Friesian region origins. J.
