First Settling in Middletown, Monmouth County, New Jersey By Nathan Stout, 1823 Second printing by H.G. McCarter, "Herald" Office, Hopewell, N.J., 1878 with additions by Mrs. Sarah Weart, Third printing in 1906 by Joab B. Stout, with additions and corrections. Fourth printing in 1929 by George A. Chandler, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The History of the Stout Family Richard Stout, the first of the name in America was born in Notinghamshire, in Old England, and his father's name was John. The said Richard, when quite young paid his addresses to a young woman that his father though below his rank, upon which account some unpleasant conversation happened between the father and the son, on account of which, the said Richard left his father's house; and in a few days engaged on board a ship of war, where he served about seven years, after which time he got a discharge at New Amsterdam, now called New York, in America. About the same time a ship from Amsterdam, in Holland, on her way to the said New Amsterdam, was driven on the shore that is now called Middletown, in Monmouth County, in the State of new Jersey, which ship was loaded with passengers, who with much difficulty got on shore. But the Indians not long after fell upon them and butchered and killed the whole crew, as they thought, but soon after the Indians were gone, a certain Penelope Van Princes, whose husband the Indians had killed, found herself possessed of strength enough to creep to a hollow tree, where she remained some days. An Indian happening to come that way, whose dog coming to the tree, occasioned him to examine the inside of the tree, where he found the said Penelope in a forlorn, distressed condition. She was bruised very severely about the head, and her bowels protruded from a cut across her abdomen; she kept them in with her hand. She had been in this fearful condition seven days when the Indian found her. In his compassion he took her out of the tree and carried her to his wigwam where he treated her Page 4 kindly and healed her wounds, and in a short time conveyed her in his canoe to New Amsterdam, where he sold her to the Dutch, who then owned that city, now called New York. The man and woman from whom the whole race of Stouts descended, got into the city of New Amsterdam, where they became acquainted with each other and were married. And, not withstanding, it may be thought by some, that they conducted themselves with more fortitude than prudence, they immediately crossed the bay and settled in the above said Middletown, where the said Penelope had lost her first husband by the Indians and had been so severely wounded herself. There was at that time but six white families in the settlement, including their own, (which was in the year 1648), where they continued until they became rich in prosperity and rich in children. They had together seven sons and three daughters, viz: John, Richard, Jonathan, Peter, James, Benjamin, David. The daughters were - Deliverance, Sarah, Penelope. All of which sons and daughters lived to raise large families. John the eldest son of Richard the First, named his eldest son Richard, who when married settled at a place called Squan, and was generally after called "Squan Dick," and raised a large family, some of whom settled about Barnegat and along the shore - a great number of whose descendants are there to this day. The said John named his second son John, who, in consequence of his following the seas, was called "Sailor John," of whose family I am able to give but little account, although it was numerous. One daughter, whose name was Penelope, married John Sutphen, who afterward moved near Neshanie, and had four children, viz: three sons and one daughter, whose names were Derrick, John, Stout and Sarah. The second son of Richard the First was Richard, who had two sons and four daughters, viz: John, Jonathan, Rebecca, Catherine, Mary and Esther. John Page 5 married a woman by the name of Taylor and had a large family of sons and daughters. He lived near Shrewsbury river. Jonathan married a woman by the name of White and had a large family of sons and daughters. One of his sons, named Richard, married a certain Anne Tinbrook, and had a pretty numerous family, of whom I can give but little account, excepting one son who served through the war, and acquired a great reputation. (Who had the name of his mother - he served as an officer through the Revolutionary War with great reputation.) Rebecca had one son whose name was George, and several respectable daughters by George Talor (Taylor), who was her only husband. Catherine was married to John Stout, who was the second son of Joseph, who was the eldest son of Jonathan, who was the third son of Richard the First. The said Catherine had three sons and four daughters, viz: Richard, Jehu, Daniel, Mary, Ruth, Rebecca and Rachel. Richard married a certain woman, Penelope Park, and had a large family, the eldest of which was John, who is now a Judge of the Court in Somerset County. John was a doctor and went to Carolina where he died without issue. Daniel married a woman named Charity Brinsoon, and had a number of children most of which are dead. [see errata] Mary married Samuel Holmes, son of Jonathan Holmes of Middletown, and had a large family of sons and daughters, viz: Joseph, Stout, Jonathan, John, Samuel, Elisha, Lydia, Pamelia and Catherine. Joseph married Elinor Schenck, and had three sons and to daughters, viz: Jonathan, John, Elisha, Mary and Elinor. Elisha married a daughter of Peter Van Dorn. The other sons are yet single. Mary married Hervey Longstreet, and Elinor is dead. Stout had two wives by which he had children, the name of the first is unknown to me. The second's maiden name was Agburn. John married Sarah Hendrickson, by whom he had two sons and four daughters, viz: Daniel, John, Mary, Catherine, Emma and Ellen. Jonathan married a (Anna) Page 6 Schenck and died childless. Samuel married Sarah Holmes, daughter of Col. Alfred Holmes, and has one son named Jonathan, and two daughters named Mary and Catherine. Elisha died single. Lydia married Jarret Stillwell, and has a number of daughters but no sons. Pamelia married John Stillwell and had three sons and three daughters, viz: Samuel, Enoch, Holmes, Sarah, Anne and Catherine. Catherine married Ralph Hageman and had four sons and five daughters, viz: John, Andrew, Samuel, Garrett, Mary, Anne, Pamelia (Permila), Lydia and Sarah. John married Sarah Boggs. Andrew married Jeroliah Skillman. Samuel married Mary Lawrence, and Garrett is yet single. Mary married William Schenck and as a son Peter and a daughter Catherine and after the death of Schenck she married Joseph Vandorn, by whom she had another son named Wesley. Anne married Abraham Stout, by whom she had a son Samuel Holmes, and a daughter Elinor. Pamelia (Permila) married Alexander Van Pelt, by whom she has two sons, viz: Ralph Hageman, and Emley. Lydia married William Young and has two children, Peter and Catherine. Sarah married John B. Vandyke, and has daughters, Catherine and Charity. The second daughter, sister to the said Mary, whose name was Ruth, married John Sutton, a Baptist minister, by whom she had four or five children, but their removing to Virginia soon after they were married, it is out of my power to give as much information respecting her family as I could wish. The next sister in order is Rebecca, who married Henry Sortor, by whom she had four sons and two daughters, viz: Henry, George, Jesse, Elisha, Mary and Amy. The next in order is Rachel who married Nehimiah Stout, by whom she had one son and four daughters, viz: Wilkes, Annie, Rebecca, Amy and Rachel. I am not able to say what family Wilkes married into, but Annie married Andrew Anderson, and had a family of children. Rebecca married Loyd Holmes and had a family of children. Page 7 Annie (Amy) married David Stout and died childless, and Rachel married soon after to the same David Stout, by whom she has a number of children. Mary the third daughter of Richard the second, married James Grover, and died without children. And of the posterity of Esther the fourth daughter, I have no accurate knowledge. I shall now introduce Jonathan Stout, the third son of Richard the first. He married a woman of the name of Bullen, and moved to Hopewell, in Hunterdon County, by whom he had six sons and three daughters, viz: Joseph, born in the year 1686; Jonathan, born in 1701; Zebulon, born 1699; Benjamin, born 1696; Samuel, born 1709; David, born 1706; and Sarah, Hannah and Anne.

James married a woman in Maryland who possessed an Honorary title, by whom he had one son named St. Lege-Cod Stout. John married Catherine Stout, the daughter of Richard the second whose family I have already described.

Grover married a daughter of James Mitchell. Saftz died single. Joseph married a daughter of George Garrison and raised a large family. Jonathan married Elizabeth Hunt, a daughter of Wilson Hunt, by whom he had three sons and one daughter, viz: Joseph, Wilson, Daniel and Ruth. I now introduce the daughters of said Joseph, beginning with Mary who married Harmon Rosenkrance, by whom she had three sons and four daughters, viz: Alexander, Joseph, John, Catherine, Anne, Mary and Rachel. Alexander married and has two sons living named Alexander and William. Joseph was a soldier in the Revolutionary war and I have Page 8 been told that he died there. John married Allaire Kyse (Allice Kise, third daughter of Joseph) and went to Kentucky. Catherine married Samuel Pethro and Annie married John Hudnut and had a number of children. Mary married John Dildine and Rachel married John Stout, and had a number of children. Anne married a man by the name of Worth, and raised a family of whom I have but little knowledge. Rachel married a Stockton by whom she had two sons, Joseph and Richard, and after the death of her first husband she married a man by the name of Reddal, by whom she had one daughter - Anne. Ruth married a Leonard by whom she had children but I can give no particular account of their number or names. I now close this history of Joseph's family and introduce his brother Jonathan, who married a woman of the name of Mary Lee, by whom he had four sons and two daughters, viz: Zebulon, Samuel, Jonathan, David, and Anne (Anna) and Sarah. Zebulon I believe died single. Samuel married and raised a large family of sons and daughters. Jonathan married a woman by the name of Swym and raised a family. David married Sarah Park, and raised a large family. He move, when his family was young, to the Western Country by reason where, I can neither tell their names, nor number. The two sisters, Anne and Sarah, married Andrew Stout, by whom they had a number of children, Sarah, David, Jonathan and Ruth, who all have families. The said Sarah was first married to Moses Morgan, by whom she had a number of children. I shall now introduce Zebulon, a brother to Joseph (and Jonathan), of whose family I have just given an account. Zebulon married a woman whose name was Charity Barrows (Burrows), by whom he had two sons and seven daughters, viz: John, Zebulon, Anne, Hannah, Rachel, Mary, Charity, Sarah and one died single whose name is not within my memory. John married Mabel Saxton (Sexton), by whom he had two sons and five daughters, Page 9 viz: Zephaniah, Amos, Elizabeth, Mabel, Kesiah, Rachel, Charity. Zepheniah married Rhoda Stout, by whom he had two sons, the eldest named Ebenezer, who studied law, and is yet living. The other son died young. Amos married a Morgan and moved to the Lake country, and of his family I know but little. Elizabeth married Nathaniel Hart, and had a number of children. Mabel married James Campbell, by whom she had a number of children. Kesiah married Lewis Gordon. Rachel married Jonathan Stout and they had by him a number of children. Charity married John Park, and had by him a number of children. Zebulon married Sarah Stout, by whom he had no children. After her death he married the widow Sutphen, whose maiden name was Demott, by whom he had a son, whose name is Zebulon. I now introduce the daughter of the said Zebulon the eldest, beginning the Anne, who was married to Ichabod Lugn [Leigh], by whom she had sons, Samuel, Joseph, Elijah, Daniel, Zebulon, John, Isaac, and daughters, Naomi, Elizabeth and Annie. Hannah married John Brinson, and had a number of children. Rachel married Stephen Bartow (Barton), and had sons. Andrew, Zebulon, John and David, no daughters. Mary married a man by the name of Carbine. Charity married Nathaniel Stout, by whom she had three children, viz: Lavana, Elijah (David) and Charity. Sarah married Abram Skillman who died a few months after, and left no children. Charity the wife of Nathaniel Stout, died about the same time, and left him at liberty to marry his first wife's sister Sarah, which he did, in a few months after, and by whom he had a number of children. I shall now introduce Benjamin, a brother of Zebulon, whose family I have last delineated. Benjamin was born in the year 1696, and married Hannah Bonham by whom he had six sons and three daughters, viz: Jonathan, Hezekiah, Benjamin, Nathaniel, Ezekiel, Hosea and Mary, Hannah and Sarah. Jonathan Page 10 married a woman by the name of Jewell, and raised a large family of children and lived till he was a hundred years old. Hezekiah married a widow Smith, they had no children, and after her death he married a widow Sortor, with whom he lived until he was between ninety and a hundred years old, and died without issue. Benjamin married Rebecca Dulhangal, by whom he had a large family of children, and after her death he married Martha Skyhauk and had another large family of children. Nathaniel married Charity Furman, by whom he had one child, a daughter, whose name was Rhoda. She married Zephaniah Stout, and had issue. After his death she married Burges Allison, by whom she had children. Ezekiel married a Drake by whom he had a large family of children. Hesea went into the back parts of Virginia a single man, where he married and raised a large family of children, as I have been informed. Mary married William Heabron, and had by him two sons and one daughter, viz; John, William and Hannah. Hannah married David Ollivent, and raised a family of children. Sarah married Andrew Bray and died without issue. I shall next take up Samuel brother to Benjamin, whose family I have last detailed. He was born in the year 1709, and married the widow of James Stout, (who had seven children by her first husband, and whose maiden name was Catherine Simson,) by whom he had one son, whose name was Samuel, he was born in the month of February in the year 1732. He was a man of high respectability, he served in the Legislature, and was a Justice of the peace a number of years. He married Anne Vandyke, by whom he had seven sons, and three daughters, viz: Abraham, Samuel, John, Jonathan, Ira, Andrew, Jacob and Catherine, Anne and Sarah. Before I proceed further, I will state that Samuel the grandfather of these ten last mentioned children, lost his first wife, and married a widow Limbrook (Tinbrook), by whom he had two Page 11 sons Jonathan and Andrew. The youngest died single, and Jonathan married Sarah Phillips, and raised a large family of sons and daughters. I now resume the history of the ten (eleven) children of the second Samuel. Abraham married Jane Pettitt, and by her had a number of children. He served, with great reputation as an officer, throughout the whole of the Revolutionary war. His brother is next in order; he married Elinor Crinen (Helen Crueer or Cruser) by whom he had but one child, whose name was Abraham, and is a man of good distinguishing talent, and is now a member of the Legislature of this State, and has been for a number of years. He married Anne Hagemar, by whom he had two children, viz: Elinor and Samuel Holmes. I now take up John, who married Rachel Rosenkrance by whom he had four sons and two daughters, viz: Washington, Montgomery, Samuel, Hezekiah, and Mary and Catherine. Washington married Hannah Stout, Montgomery to a Wyckoff, Samuel married Mary Labaw, Hezekiah is yet single. Mary married Phillip Servis, and Catherine married William Little. Jonathan married Rachel Stout. Ira married Sarah Burrows. Andrew married Sarah Stout. Jacob married Anne Burtis. Catherine married Peter Smith, a Baptist minister. Anne married Benjamin Stout, and Sarah married John Wyckoff. I shall next take David, who I thought was the youngest son of Jonathan, but have discovered my mistake, and find that he was next to the youngest, which was Samuel, whose family I have last delineated. David was born int he year 1706, and as I do not mean to draw character, I shall content myself with saying, that as far as his acquaintance extended, he was reputed an honest man and a Christian, which I believe to be the two highest traits that human nature is susceptible of. He was married in early life to Elizabeth Larrison, by whom he had four sons and Page 12 five daughters, viz: Jonathan, Andrew, James, David, Elizabeth, Anne, Mary, Sarah and Hannah. The above said Jonathan married Rachel Burrows, by whom he had a number of children, of which I am only able to name three sons, which were David, Moses and Job. David married Any Stout, daughter of Nehimiah Stout, who died some time after without issue. He then married his first wife's sister Rachel, by whom he had a number of children. But I am acquainted with the name of only two sons, viz: Jonathan and Nathan, who are promising, well-informed young men. Job married a daughter of Abner Howell, and has a number of children, but as they live in the State of Ohio, I am not able to tell their names or number. I shall now take Andrew Stout, brother to that Jonathan, whose family I have last detailed. He married alternately two of Jonathan Stout's daughters, who were his own cousins, and whose history I have given under the head of Jonathan Stout's family. I now take up James, the third brother who married Catherine Stout, daughter of John Stout, by whom he had three sons and four daughters - Jesse, Amose, Charles, Rachel, Elizabeth, Catherine and Anne. Jesse married Abigail Lott, daughter of Phelix Lott, by whom he had five sons and I think seven daughters. Amos married Catherine Drake, the daughter of William Drake, by whom he has a number of children, but as he moved to the Lake Country soon after he was married, I can neither tell the names or number of his children. Charles married Arlissa Saxton (Sexton), a daughter of Jared Saxton, by whom he had a number of children. Rachel married John Manners, by whom she had two sons, the eldest named James Stout, the other John. Elizabeth married David Stout, and after his death, to John Hoagland, but has no children. Catherine married James Bryant, and has a number of children, but as they moved soon after to the Lake Country, I am not able to tell their names or number. Page 13 Anne married Philip Servis, by whom she had one son named James. I now take up David, the fourth brother; he married Charity Burroughs, by whom he had two daughters, who were named Mary and Elizabeth. Mary married James Saxton, by whom he had two daughters, who were named Mary and Elizabeth. Mary married Jared Saxton, by whom she had a number of children. Elizabeth married Nathaniel Burroughs, by whom she had a number of children. I shall now introduce the sisters of the last detailed brothers. Beginning with Elizabeth the eldest, who married Freegift Stout, her second cousin, by whom she had a number of sons and daughters. The next sister was Anne, who married Timothy Merritt (Merrill), by whom she had four sons and one daughter. The third daughter was Mary, who married John Chamberlain, the son of Lewis, by whom she had a great number of children. The fourth was Sarah, who married Moses Randolph, by whom she had a number of children. The fifth was Hannah, who married James Wyckoff, by whom she had a great number of children. I shall now introduce the daughters of Jonathan Stout, the son of Richard the First. The eldest daughter was Sarah, who was born in the year 1689, and married Andrew Smith, by whom she had a number of sons and one daughter, viz: Jonathan, Andrew, George, Charles, Timothy and Anne. Jonathan married a Hixon, by whom he had a large family of children. One of his sons was a judge of the Court of Hunterdon, a number of years, which office he served with reputation and honor. His name was John. Andrew married a Mershon, by whom he had a number of children. George married and had a family, but I know nothing about the family he married into. Charles married a daughter of Thomas * -- (Hunt), and had a son named Jonathan. Timothy married a Lott and had a family of children. His son George now lives on the farm where his father died. Anne married Page 14 John Titus, by whom she had a number of daughters, and but one son whose name was Andrew, who died single with the small pox. I shall now introduce the second daughter of Jonathan Stout. She was born in the year 1694, and was married to Jediah Higgins, and her name was Hannah. She had sons by Higgins - Joseph, Jonathan, Joshua and James; and daughters, Mary, Rachel, and I think some others, whose names I do not remember. I now introduce Jonathan Stout's third daughter, whose name was Anne. She was born in the year 1704. She was married to Nehimiah Bonham, by whom she had but one child, whose name was Anne. She was married to Benjamin Reeder, by whom she had three sons and three daughters, viz: Nehimiah, Jacob, Joseph, Rachel, Mary and Anne. This Anne was an extraordinary child, after being born seventeen years or thereabouts after it was supposed her mother had quit bearing, and was near sixty years old. Her eldest son Nehimiah married Phebe Reeder, daughter of Jacob Reeder, his own cousin, by whom he had one child, being a daughter, whose name was Elizabeth. She was married to Thomas Drake, by whom she had children. Her eldest son was named Jacob and was married to Phebe, daughter of Ira Stout. I now introduce Jacob Reeder, brother to the above said Nehimiah, and I can only say he moved to the Lake Country, and as I have been informed, married and had a family of children. And now comes in Joseph Reeder, brother to the said Jacob. He was a man of uncommon strength and action of body, but he had also that which was far superior; and that was, he was a man of great piety, a retentive memory and uncommon knowledge of the Scriptures. He married a widow Stinson in Sussex county, and had some children, but I know neither their names or number. Rachel Reeder, sister to above said Joseph, I think, was never married. Mary, her sister, was married to Page 15 Samuel Hunt son of John Hunt, and has a famiy of children. Anne, the youngest sister of whom it may be said, she was born out of her time, is still single. Thus I close the descendants of Jonathan Stout, the son of Richard the First. I now take up that of Peter, the fourth son of the said Richard, of whose family I have but a slight degree of knowledge but this I can say from good authority, he was what is called a good-natured man, uncommon for patience and forbearance. He settled in the county where he was born. He married and had a large family of children, and grew very rich. It was his custom to make a feast every year on his birthday, and invite all his brothers' children, and when they were all seated at the table, he would walk round them with much delight, praising them for their growth and improvement. His children I believe settled along the seashore in the county where he lived, but of their names or number, I have no correct knowledge. I shall now introduce James, the fifth son of Richard the first. I know not into what family he married, but he had three sons and four daughters, viz: Benjamin, James, Joseph, Penelope, Elizabeth, Mercy and Anne. Benjamin married Ruth Bogart, by whom he had two sons and six daughters, viz: Joseph, Benjamin, Elizabeth, Sarah, Mary, Rachel, Ruth and Anne. Joseph married a daughter of Gabriel Huff, by whom he had two children, viz: John and Mary. Benjamin married a daughter of William Anderson, named Elizabeth, by whom he had a great number of children. Elizabeth, who was the eldest sister to the last mentioned Joseph and Benjamin, was married to John Quick, son of Francis, by whom she had three sons and four daughters, viz: Joseph, Moses, Benjamin, Sarah Ruth, Elizabeth and Mary. Joseph married Roxana Quick, the daughter of Jacob Quick, and had no children. Moses married Sarah Saxton, the daughter of Jared Saxton, by whom he has a family of children. Benjamin married, but I know Page 16 not into what family nor the number of his children. Sarah, sister to the three last mentioned brothers, was married to John Taylor, by whom she had a son Peter, which is all the description I can give of her family. Ruth was married to an Englishman of the name of William Abbott -- can give no description of her family. Elizabeth is not married. Mary was married to George Agee -- can give no description of her family. Sarah was married to Zebulon Stout, the son of Zebulon, and died without issue. Mary married a Hunt. Rachel married Stephen Hewell. Ruth also married. Anne married Abraham Stout, by whom she had a daughter and named her Sarah. I shall now introduce James, a brother to Benjamin, whose family I have last delineated. He married Johana Johnson, by whom he had three sons and four daughters, viz: Sarah, Elizabeth, Jemima, Johana, Thomas, Cornelius and James. Thomas married two wives alternately, by each of whom he had large families of children, but I know not either their names nor number, nor do I remember the maiden name of either of his wives. Cornelius married a Longstreet, James married Lois Weart, by whom he had one son and one daughter. The son's name was Thomas, who married Elizabeth Burrows, and has had by her a few children., Sarah and James. Elizabeth, a sister to the last mentioned three brothers, was married to Abraham Prall, by whom she had one son and two daughters, William, Elizabeth and Hannah. William married a daughter of John Reeder, by whom he had one son, and after her death he married Mary Chamberlain, the daughter of Lewis Chamberlain, by whom he had one son and two daughters. Elizabeth married John Finley, by whom she had a number of children. Hannah married Thomas Atkinson, and by him had a number of children. Jemima, the third daughter of James Stout, Page 17 and sister to Abraham Prall's wife, was married to Thomas Hankison, by whom she had a number of children. Johana, the fourth daughter of James Stout, married Ruliff Sutphen, by whom she had two sons and three daughters. The eldest son is James, the other is Abraham, who is a Colonel of a regiment of Hunterdon Militia. One of the sisters married Jacob Sutphen, the son of Derrick, and the other married Peter Young, the son of Henry, and the other married a man by the name of Schenck. I now introduce Joseph, a brother of James, whose family was last delineated. He moved to Pennsylvania soon after into Philadelphia, where he raised a considerable family. He followed the seas, and lived in good reputation. The last knowledge I had of any of his family was in the year 1779. He then had a son Joseph, who was the Captain of a vessel, and in good circumstances and repute as a man and as an officer. I shall now introduce the four sisters, beginning with Penelope, who married a man of the name of Jewell, by whom she had six children, three sons and three daughters. The next sister was Elizabeth, who married a Warford, by whom she had a large family of children. The third sister, Mercy, married a Warnor, by whom she had a large family of children. The fourth sister (Anna) married Cornelius Johnson, by whom she had a large family of children. She lived to a great age, and was the last grandchild of Richard Stout the first that was alive for many years. I now introduce Benjamin, the sixth son of Richard the first. He moved to Pennsylvania, and it was said from thence to the State of Delaware and from thence to Maryland. It is agreed, on all the information I have been able to obtain, that he married and raised a large number of children. And that he followed the seas a great part of his life, as also did some of his sons. But I have no personal knowledge of any of his family. Page 18 I now bring forward the seventh and last son of Richard the first. It is said he was born in the year 1669, and that he was married to Rebecca Ashton, and lived in Middletown on land, part of which is now in the possession of Dennis Hendrickson. He had by the said wife five sons and three daughters, viz: James, Freegift, David, Joseph, Benjamin, Rebecca, Sarah, Deliverance. He continued his residence at Middletown, a near neighbor to Obediah Holmes, who had married his wife's sister Alice, until he had raised his family, and two of them were married -- James and Rebecca, whom he settled in Upper Freehold, with each of them a hundred acres of land. James, the eldest son of David, was married in the year 1712 to Catherine Simson, by whom he had seven children, six sons and one daughter, viz: John, James, Joseph, David, Jacob, Jonathan, and Rebecca. After he had three children he sold his property at upper Freehold and moved to Amwell (where Abraham Runkle now lives) and purchased about seven hundred acres of land, built a house and barn, cleared and improved to a considerable extent, and bid fair to be very rich. But when about thirty-six years old he was taken with the pleurisy, and died with a few days' illness, and left a widow and the above mentioned seven small children. David Stout, the father of the said James, sold all his possessions in Middletown and moved to Amwell, some years before the death of his son James, and settled where Henry Young now lives, and purchased large tract of land - at which place he died a very old man, was buried on his own farm, which laid the foundation of a burying ground, where his descendants continue to bury to this day. After the death of the above said James Stout, his widow married his own cousin, Samuel Stout, the youngest son of Jonathan Stout, and had one son by him named Samuel, whose family I have before treated of. Page 19 I now introduce John, eldest son of the said James, the son of David. John married Rachel, daughter of William Merrill, in the year 1734, by whom he had ten children, seven sons and three daughters, viz: Abraham, Amos, Aaron, William, Nathan, Moses, Levi, Catherine, Anne and Rachel. Abraham was born in the year 1735. He was married when about twenty-one to Elizabeth Houghton, daughter of Thomas Houghton, by whom he had five children, three sons and two daughters, viz: Solomon, Joab, Ely Mary and Rachel. He then lost his first wife, and married her sister Alice, by whom he had one son, whom he called John. His second wife died also, after which he married Anne Stout, the daughter of Benjamin Stout, by whom he had one daughter, and in the forty-second year of his age he died also. The second son of John was born in the year 1741, and when he was about twenty-one years old he died of the small pox. The third was Aaron, who died when about two years old. The fourth son was William, who died at about six years old. The fifth son married in the twentieth year of his age to Esther Ketcham, daughter of Jonathan Ketcham, in Middletown, by whom he had eleven children, six sons and five daughters, viz: John, Levi, Zepheniah, William, Robert (and one still born, not named), Mary, Sarah, Rachel, Catherine and Rhoda. John died a little above forty years old, and left ten children - by two wives. The first was Hannah Price, daughter of John Price. The second was Anne Holmes, daughter of Daniel Holmes, a Scotch Baptist minister. The last wife he left a widow. Levi Stout married Mary Bishop, daughter of David Bishop, by whom he has had a number of children and I think he has but five living. Zepheniah married Elinor Lane, daughter of Henry Lane, by whom he had one son called John. The said Zepheniah died, leaving a widow with the said son about two years old. William married the widow of his brother Zepheniah, by whom he has Page 20 five children, viz: Nathan, Henry, Catherine, Mary Ann, and Caroline. Robert married Mary Prall, daughter of Arthur Prall, by whom he had one daughter named Sarah. He then lost his wife and has since married Elizabeth Dufriess, by whom he has a daughter named Mary. I shall now mention the sisters to the last mentioned brothers, beginning with Mary, who married Philip Housel, by whom she had three daughters. The two eldest are dead and the youngest named Mary Stout, is married to John Alexander. The next sister, Sarah, died when about six years old. The third sister, Rachel, is still single. The fourth sister was married to William Golden, son of William, by whom she has five children -- three sons and two daughters, viz: Abraham Stout, William, Amos, Esther and Rachel. The fifth daughter, Rhoda, was married to Reuben Golden, the son of John, and hath had by him two children -- a son and a daughter, whose names are John and Esther. I now bring forward Moses, the sixth son o [sic] the said John Stout, who was married to Abigail Hart, daughter of John Hart, by whom he had ten children -- five sons and five daughters, viz: John, Asher, Edward, Simpson, Scudder, Pamelia, Rachel, Thedosia, Deborah, and Sarah. John, the eldest, died when he was between two and three years of age, by falling backwards into a large kettle of hot water. The second brother, Asher, married Paul Egbert's daughter. She died soon after without issue and he still remains a widower. Edward married Catherine Brees, and has had by her a large family of sons and daughters. Simson married Abigail Bryan, and has had by her two children. Scudder went to sea and I have not heard from him in ten years, and suppose he is lost. I now introduce the sisters to the above said brothers. Pamelia died when about sixteen years old, single. Rachel married Abraham Quick, son of Jacob Quick, and by him has eight children, and is Page 21 now a widow. Theodosia married John Schenck, and has a large family of children. Deborah married John Hart, son of Edward, and has by him a family of children. Sarah married Sidney Prall, son of Isaac, and has a family of children. I now introduce the seventh son of the said John Stout, whose name was Levi. He died single when about twenty-one years old, with the nervous fever. I now mention the daughters of the said John Stout, beginning with Catherine, the eldest. She married James Stout, son of David, whose family is mentioned under the head of David Stout, son of Jonathan. The second sister, Anne, married John Manners, and by him had four children -- three sons and one daughter, viz: Moses, David, Abraham and Rachel. Moses and Abraham died young. The other two are still living. David is a man of a good moral character and strong mental parts, which, joined to a good education have made him a very useful man. He married Mary Schenck, daughter of John Schenck, by whom he has nine children -- five sons and four daughters, viz: John, Abraham, Theodore, David Stout, Jacob, Eidah, Rachel Ann, Mary and Jane. The sister to the said David Manners married Henry Ott, and has by him two daughters and one son. Their names are Anne, Sarah and John. The eldest married Abraham Vandorn, and Sarah, Peter Low. I now come to the youngest daughter of the said John Stout, whose name is Rachel. She married Isaac Prall, by whom she has two sons -- John and Zareur. I now introduce James, brother to the said John whose family I have last delineated. He was born in the year 1715, and he married Jemima Reeder, by whom he had six children -- three sons and three daughters, viz: Abel, Caleb, James, Amy, Mary and Elinor. Abel married Williampy Wyckoff, and had by her a large family of children. Caleb married Elizabeth Labaw, daughter of Francis Labaw, and had by her a large family of children.

He then married the widow Pegg, and has lived with her a number of years without issue. David married a Barklow, and soon moved to the Western country, with a small family. Deliverance, the eldest sister to the above said brothers, was married to John Golden, son of Jacob, and I should do violence to my own feeling and judgment if I did not insert that I believe that there are as many eccentricities in the character of this woman as I have ever witnessed in any other woman. She has but one child, a son, whose name is Reuben. He married to Rhoda Stout and has children. The third daughter of James is Elinor. She was married to Elijah Larrison, by whom she had two daughters -- one of whom is married to William Marshall and the other to William Cool. I close James' family, and introduce Joseph, the third son of James and brother to the aforesaid John and James. Joseph was born in the year 1717, and was married to Mary Hixon, by whom he had nine Page 23 children, four sons and five daughters, viz: Elijah, Benijah, Timothy, Elysha, Catherine, Elizabeth, Rebecca, Mary and Rachel.

Rebecca married to Abraham Hogaland, and I believe had but five children. Mary married to Benjamin Gray, and moved to Virginia, where she had a large family of children.

He was born in the year 1719, and was married to Mary Stout, his first cousin, the daughter of Joseph Stout, by whom he had a son George and a daughter Mary. His wife died soon after Mary was born, and he married to Sarah Higgins the daughter of Joseph Higgins, by whom he had six sons and one daughter, viz: James, Joseph, John, Jacob, David, Amos, Joshua and Sarah. His eldest son George died single. His eldest daughter Mary married to Phineas Riggs, and had by him I think ten very promising children.

Mary married Richard Chamberlain and had by him a great family of children. Rebecca married Edward Taylor, and by him had a family of children.

Nehemiah married Rachel Stout, the history of whose family I have given under the head of John Stout, the son of Joseph. Nathaniel married Charity Stout and Sarah Stout, daughters of Zebulon Stout, the son of Jonathan, the history of whose family I have given. Rebecca married Isaac Eaton, a Baptist minister, who was pastor of the church of Hopewell more than twenty years and was truly a great man. "In him, with grace and eminence did shine. The man, the Christian scholar, and Divine." She, the said Rebecca, had by him two sons and three daughters, viz: Joseph and David, and Amy, Ure, and Pamelia.

Job married and had a family; Jacob married a Huff. Noah married a Page 27 Thatcher. Abner married a Stout. Reeder married a Kinney. Joseph married a Titus and Benjamin married a Stout.

He was married when about seventeen years old to the widow Ketcham (who had children older than he was) with whom he appeared to live very happy a number of years without issue. And after her death he married Mary Higgins, daughter of Jediah Higgins, by whom he had nine children, viz: Elihu, Jediah, Benjamin, and David, and Hannah, Sarah, Rachel and Mary. The three first, that is to say, Elihu, Hannah and Sarah,, all died under twelve years old, with the dysentery. Jediah married Mary Stout and by her had a family of children. Benjamin married Rachel Stout, sister to his brother Jediah's wife, and by her had children, but I know not their names nor number. And after her death he married Anna Stout, the daughter of Samuel Stout, and by her I think had children. And after her death he married Mary Hart, a daughter of Oliver Hart. Whether he had any issue by the last marriage I know not, but I have lately heard of his death.

I now introduce the three daughters of Richard the first, beginning with Deliverance, who was married to a Throckmorton, from whom sprung a numerous family. Sarah married a man of the name of Pike and Penelope married a Bown. They both had a large number of descendants, but I am not able Page 29 at this time to particularize.
