What do I know of Solomon? According to the New Hurlely RDC, Solomon was born Jan. 26, 1782 and perished May 10, 1852 in New Paltz. Solomon married Maria Terwilliger and I know of two children Robert Dunn born Sept. 18, 1804 and David Dunn born about 1819. I suspect more children and have sources that may tell me more in the near future. Solomon is buried in the Old Lloyd Cemetery very close to his brother (my grandfather) Rober Dunn born either 1777 (on his grave) or 1779 which is what is in the New Hurley RDC. Robert and Solomon had Uncles John and Thomas. Two other Uncles probably are Robert Dunn and Joseph Dunn that lived in New Hurley. A document against King George III in 1775 was signed by Thomas Dunn, Thomas Dunn jr. and James Dunn. A Thomas Dunn, if I am reading it right, was resident in Marlborough (south of New Paltz) in 1760. Evidence states that the! family migrated from Pennsylvania just after, or during the French and Indian War. The cause was likely the constant terror posed by the Delaware Indians. If you wish to read about it, put the name "Tom Quick" in your search engine. You will come up with references to Tom Quick (family from Rochester Township, Ulster County) and his relationship to Milford, Pa. The Delaware are still as dumb as they always were and have re-instituted the conflict that subsided about 1800.
