What I have Antie Lozier dob 1730 Bergen Co,N.J her parents were Nicholas(Claes) Francois Lozier b.1656 N.Y her mom was Tryntie(Peter) Slot b1665 N.Y.
Now it looks like Tryntie parents were from Holland.
Tryntie parents were Trientje Jacobse b 1623 Holland her dad was Jacob(Wallingen Van Winkle.
Antie was married to Samuel Demaray b1707 they had 2 boys David and Niclaes,
Antie died some where between 1730-33.
Does any one know about the Dutch background of this family?

I am interested in the following couple because of the NASON tie. Do you have any further information? I have found Johnson in the 1870 census--that's about it.

Thanks.

vohalloran — 2009-10-24 18:35:22Z

Can you check to see if there is a marriage record for Henry John Mulder and Charlotte Benjamin in 1872? I believe they were married in the First Holland Reformed Church in Midland Park.

I would appreciate any information you can provide.

Re: Catholic Cemetery near Dumont

LindaGHoller — 2009-10-08 17:31:20Z

I tried to obtain a death certificate for James from the NJ Archives. They did a search from 1910 - 1915 but said they were unable to find any record of him. As his wife Mary Casey was still living at the same address in Dumont in the 1915 census, I thought it most likely that she had buried James nearby. I guess my next move will be to try again with the NJ Archives to see if they can find any record of Mary's death certificate.

Re: Need lookup in Holy Cross Cemetery

Hi Leslie,
The Holy Cross Cemetery you mention, is this the one in North Arlington NJ< Which is Bergen County. I am 5 minutes away from the one in North Arlington. Norman Rutan

Re: Catholic Cemetery near Dumont

Diane0194 — 2009-10-07 23:05:55Z

Probably the best way to go is to obtain a death certiicate for James M. Casey. You can contact the NJ Archives in Trenton, NJ and give them all the info you have. For a small fee they will send you the certificate which will usually tell where the burial took place.

Catholic Cemetery near Dumont

LindaGHoller — 2009-10-06 22:17:54Z

I am doing research on James M. Casey who lived in Dumont, Bergen Co., New Jersey in 1910. He died sometome between 1910 and 1915 as his wife Mary listed herself as a widow in the 1915 census. The family was Catholic. Does anyone know what Catholic cemetery was closest to Dumont? I am trying to find his grave as well as the grave of Mary. Thanks for any help!

If you are interested in going further with your Zabriskie line get a hold of the Zabriskie Genealogy by George Olin Zabriskie. I believe it consists of two volumns and is quite informative. Most genealogical libraries should have copies.

Mr. Deyo,

I have in my possession a transcript of an undated
letter signed by Willard L. De Yoe and John D Quackenbush.
The original is in the Bergen County Historical Society holdings.

In it, the signers describe the boundary of a 17th century deed granting land to Claes Janssen Romyne, in present day Hohokus.

Do you have any idea what this is all about or any information relative to Willard L. DeYo?

Thank you

Here's a link to the NJ State Archives' Bergen County Surrogate's Office holdings... http://www.state.nj.us/state/darm/links/webcat/queries/cbesu...

I've ordered extensively from them when I can't get there in person. They're very helpful and not very expensive.

Good luck.

Re: deeds & Mortgages; tax board

BethPotter — 2009-08-12 22:17:07Z

The county clerk should have steered you to the searching vault, for deeds, in the same building at One Bergen Plaza, next to the courthouse. That's where all the deeds, and grantor/grantee indices are...Can trace the ownership of the house backward, or just look for Mr. Heck himself. Grantors are the sellers, grantees the buyers. He should have been both!

Re: E. Rutherford - HECK - death, will, obit, etc.

ZorroPanda — 2009-08-12 18:00:31Z

Not everyone who dies has a published (paid) obituary, so you may be on a wild goose chase trying to find one. Why not call Calvary Cemetery directly, and ask them the DOD of John P. Heck? Be sure to ask for the plot number, owner and names of others buried in the same plot. The cemetery office may be kind enough to at least give you the specific DOD over the phone. Good luck!

Re: Surrogate's Court Disappointment

Thank you for the info. As a matter of fact, I sent Trenton an email and they replied immediately with the information I would have to send them. They were very helpful.

Thank you so much for your suggestion; however, I have decided to go through Trenton.

Re: Early Wills of Bergen Co.

jmlowry — 2009-09-04 20:55:13Z

Probably the best & cheapest way is to contact the NJ State Archives in Trenton. You can find their fee schedule and other information on their website. (I think it may be $10 for a copy of a will packet?)

I think this link should get you to the right page, I hope. www.state.nj.us/state/darm/links/reference.html

You can also get them by contacting the Bergen County Surrogate's Court. However, they charge a search fee and $3 per page for copies.

Good luck!

You could also visit your local LDS family history center. Many years ago the church microfilmed these NJ wills. They are copies of the original handwritten documents. They have copying machines, but I would only copy by hand the important information - not the legal mumbo-jumbo in.

Some of these wills have a wealth of information, such as the one for my great-great, grandfather, Albert Pulis, who had only daughters. It stated who each husband was!

You could be researching my family. My great-great grandfather, Gerrit, lived in Paterson NJ. I do not have much information about him. I would be curious to see what you have and we can compare notes.

Re: van Emaus ( AMOS)

rebeccaamos_1 — 2009-09-08 17:03:33Z

we are still researching our family, however, the Gerrit I believe is my relation was born August 30, 1831. The one document we do have is a marriage certificate. Gerrit married Maria de Mooij in 1856.

I found some of your other postings but I could not tell if I am researching the same tree or not.

I told them to forget it and I would get what I needed from Trenton. Library same way. Do you know if ER had city directories? Margaret

Re: E. Rutherford - HECK - death, will, obit, etc.

gopgal55 — 2009-08-12 18:14:57Z

Hi. I am doing this research for a friend, and I told them that the obits were probably paid. I am going to check the South Bergen weekly for 1945 on microfilm at the Rutherford library and the Herald News on microfilm at the Clifton library, just in case. This person died shovelling snow in front of his house in the aftermath of the pre-Christmas blizzard of 1945. There may be a local story about that, too, which I checked in The Record, but there was none.
