Did he die in Springfield? What I thought was so interesting about this Abraham is that he was excommunicated by Scotch Plains, Essex (s/b Union), NJ, Baptist Church (7GSMNJ70) 22 Dec 1764. Does anyone know why? Nancy Lohbrunner lohbrunner@prodigy.net >> Cousin Nancy, The information I have so far is that Abraham ROLL died in Summit, Union County NJ on October 20, 1813 and is buried in the cemetery of the Long Hill Chapel. I have not been able to locate that cemetery yet. There is a Long Hill Chapel in Summit, but it is a new congregation and they have no knowledge of a Long Hill Chapel in 1813 or of a cemetery connected with their church. Abraham's first wife, Mary BROOKS died in 1783 and he remarried to Catherine VREELAND. I have been able to locate her grave in the Presbyterian Cemetery in Elizabeth, NJ. She died August 9, 1814 and is buried next to her son by Abraham. Their son is Stephen ROLL (RAWLE) who was born January 15, 1794 and died May 27, 1813. I found Elizabeth (VREELAND) ROLL and Stephen ROLL in a book entitled "Inscriptions on Tombstones and Monuments in the burying Grounds of the First Presbyterian Church and St. Johns Church at Elizabeth, New Jersey 1664-1892". Originally published in 1892, the book was reprinted in 1997. Dave from Long Island
