I have limited info on the above surnames, but not in
Somerset Co., NJ and for a slightly later time period. Residing in Hope Twp.,
Warren Co., NJ; I have a Louise M. Drake born Feb. 4, 1833 who died Aug. 5, 1907. She was married to
Stewart B. Hildebrant born Jan. 26, 1831 who died March 01, 1890. They are both buried at the
Swayze Cemetery in Hope Twp.
Stewart
Hildebrant is related to Mary Elizabeth
Hoit, born Mary 27, 1831 who died Jan. 19, 1919. She was the daughter of Margaret
Hildebrant born 1797 in
Sussex Co., NJ and James N. Hoit. Mary Elizabeth
Hoit married a Mr. Brown and had a daughter Elizabeth Brown who married a Mr. Cooke and moved to
Easton, PA.
This is the only info I have on these surnames, but since there were so many in common I thought the location might give you another place to look.
