Hello Gina, Sorry it took a while (I find if I don't write right away, things get lost). Anyway: 28 Dec 1850 Garret G Garrison married Eliza Smith (daughter of John Edward Smith & Hannah Onderdonk, b abt ) in the New Hempstead Presb. Church in Rockland County. Her sister, Caroline, married a Samuel Garrison. Garret had been named as guardian to Eliza when their grandfather Adrian Onderdon's will was probated. Both girls were born late 1820/early 1830. I have no further information (too many details, not enough time). Before I could sent this off I found your follow up messege. The Adrian Onderdonk above was married to Rebecca Blauvelt, daughter of Abraham. Quite likely the same Abraham as in you land record. I haven't fleshed out the rest of the family yet, I'm sure they're in the Blauvelt or Onderdonk Genealogies (but you have to be careful for errors). Please let me know if you can connect these fellow to anyone,or each other. Krys I have a Jacob &Nancy(1800-1818) living in Haverstraw, Orange/Rockland. Sons Malachi(1836) &Weyant(1842). I would love to exchange info w/ you on your Samuel &Garret, as I have no clue to Jacob's brothers. You may contact me either on or off list. My Garrisons seem to be very close to the Smiths in census records as well. Gina
