Are the Ludlow and Ludlum familys of the Westfield area from one and the same stock? Also I am reading that there were two stage coach houses in Scotch Plains in the 1780's. Does this fit with current knowledge? I am reading the History of Union and Middlesex Counties. It lists Sutton's Hotel and "the old tavern on the forks of the road..." Others sources I have read suggest only one stage house. Help. Mike Miller

You ask > Are the Ludlow and Ludlum familys of the Westfield area from one and the same > stock? Generally the answer is No. Ludlum/Ludlam would be, but Ludlow as another family. Now, having said that, someone will come up with an exception <g>. Harman Clark hrclarkjr@kingcon.com
