Biography | A biographical sketch of Joris Ryerson was written in the "Genealogical and Biographical Memorials of the Reading, Howell, Yerkes, Watts, Latham, and Elkins Families" in 1898. On 11 November 1695, George Ryerson, then of New York city, with Mayor Anthony Brockholst, Captain Aaron Schuyler, Samuel Bayard, Samuel Berry, and David and Hendrick Manderville, obtained a patent for five thousand five hundred acres of land from the proprietors of East New Jersey, at Pacquannac, then in Bergen county, but now at what is known as Pompton Plains, Morris coutny, New Jersey (New York Biographical Record, ix. 116), to which Ryerson removed later. He was prominent in Bergen county, and for nearly a quarter of a century one of the judges of the county courts. His son George was one of the judges of the county and his son Martin was one of the leading men of Hunterdon coutny, and many years a judge therein.20 |
Biography | A biographical sketch of Joris Ryerson was written in the "The Genealogy of the Ryerson Family in America, 1646-1902" in 1902. Joris Reyersen was one of the first purchasers of land in the Pompton Valley. In addition to the land that fell to him in the general division of the lower Pacquanac Patent, also secured the share of David Mandeville, who never removed to New Jersey, and also by Indenture dated 26 March, 1696, purchased from Brockholst, Schuyler, and Bayard, for 300 pounds, the one-third of their half of this Patent, having his portion laid off to him, next to that he had acquired in the first division, thus giving him possession of about 1,200 acres, besided what he had in the Pompton Patent. Joris, previous to his removal to New Jersey, was a Planter in New York. He was living there in 1698, and 7th December 1701. But in an instrument of writing dated 17th December, 1701, he is mentioned as resident of New Jersey. It is probable that his family remained in New York, while he was part of the time at Pacquanac, clearing up his lands and preparing for settlement. Since Samuel Berrie and Hendrick Mandeville settled at Pacquanac about the beginning of the year 1702, it may have been that Joris removed here, remained a few years, and returned to New York, and in 1710 removed again to the banks of the Pacquanac, it being a family tradition that he settled here in that year. The spot on which his log house was erected was on the West side of the road, about forty yards Northwest of the residence of Abraham Ryerson, son of Nicholas Ryerson, and Sout East of the residence of the late George J. Ryerson. This vicinity, formerly called "Pacquanac," is now "Wayne," and the property on the West side of the public road is owned by the Laflin and Rand Powder Company, they having purchased it from the late George J. Ryerson and others about 1872. Joris was a Deacon in the Reformed Dutch Church of Acquancknonk (Passiac), in 1716. He was also one of the King's Justices for the County of Bergen in 1725. He probably died about the beginning of the year 1749. His will was dated 21st July, 1744, and proved 4th April, 1749.21 |
Biography | A biographical sketch of Joris Ryerson was written in the "The Ryerson Genealogy" in 1916. The sponsors at his baptism were Michael Hanzen and Catalina Jeronymus. He was evidently named in honor of his grandfather, Joris Jansen de Rapelje. Up to the time of his marriage (about twenty-four years of age), he resided in Breucklen (Brooklyn) at the Wallabout, no doubt at the home of his father. He then removed to Manhattan Island, now New York City, where he engaged in farming, first on a farm leased from Trinity Church, then on the Dey farm, and where he resided for some years, subsequently selling out in 1708 and removing to New Jersey, which was then a wilderness. Here, in company with Capt. Arent Schuyler and others, he purchased from the Indians 5500 acres in N. E. New Jersey, upon which land he settled. He married on June 26, 1690 Hannah (or Anneken) (Schouten) Dey, widow of Teunis Dey, and daughter of Johannes Schouten. She was born March 17, 1666, and died May 17, 1743. He first husband whom she married on February 4, 1685, died in 1688, leaving three small children, besides a five acre farm running from Broadway to the water's edge in New York, which the present Dey Street divided in the middle. The three small Dey children were reared by George (Joris) Ryerson with his own family and one of the daughters, Jane Dey, married a younger brother of her step-father, namely Frans Ryerson. Her brother Derick (Richard) Dey became the father of Col. Theunis Dey, who distinguished himself in the Revolution as an officer in the Army and member of the Continental Congress. Joris (George) Ryerson was a prominent man in the community and as early as 1715 was one of "His Majesty's Judges" for Bergen County. After the death of his first wife, Hannah (Dey nee Schouten) Ryerson, Joris married in his old age, and his second wife was Hannah, or Susannah De Forest. Many old documents teeming with historic interest still exists concerning Mr. Ryerson's activity in colonial times of which the author has copies, but are too voluminous for other than mere mention in this genealogy.17 |

Y. Young Beatty engaged in trade, traveling about the country with a pack. He had studied Latin, and the story goes that once, stopping at Log College, he offered his wares to the Rev.

He was licensed by the New Brunswick Presbytery, Oct. 13, 1742, and was sent to Nottingham. He was called to the Forks of Neshaminy, May 26, 1743, and was ordained Dec. 14 of that year. He was sent to Virginia and North Carolina in 1754, and he served as chaplain in the forces sent out to defend the frontiers during the next two or three years. In 1766 he was sent by the Synod on a missionary tour among the Indians, as far as one hundred and thirty miles beyond Fort Pitt. His account of this trip, published in 1768, is valuable and interesting. He was a warm friend of David Brainerd, the missionary to the New Jersey Indians. In 1760 and 1761 he was very successful in raising funds in Great Britain for the Presbyterian Widows' Fund. Being greatly interested in the College of New Jersey, he sailed for the West Indies to solicit funds in its behalf, but d. Aug. 13, 1772, soon after reaching Bridgetown, in Barbadoes.

Obituary* | His obituary was published 27 October 1768 in the Philadelphia, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. One of our Correspondents writes us as follows, viz. Amwell, (New-Jersey) October 17, 1768. "On Wednesday the 5th Inst. a melancholy Accident happened here. On the Afternoon of said Day, Captain Daniel Reading, Son of the Honourable John Reading, Esq; late of this Place, deceased, and two other Gentlemen, each with his Fowling-Piece, charged with small Shot, went out to divert themselves, in the Pursuit of Game, in the neighbouring Woods. And they having discovered a Squirrel on a Tree, one of the Gentlemen presented; but the Object moving, he took down his Piece, and, as he confidently thinks, half cocked it. Whilst they were walking about the Tree, in order again to discover the Game, the Gun of the Gentleman, who had presented, being in his Hand, accidentally went off, and Captain Reading being at a little Distance, in a Direction nearly straight before the Muzzle of the Gun, unhappily received the Charge in his Right-arm, rather above the Joint of the Elbow, which not only lacerated the Flesh, and fractured the Bone where it struck, but broke it off short, a little above where it entered. With much difficulty he got home, in most excruciating Pain, which continued for some Days. Skilful Surgeons were immediately called to his Relief, who willing, agreeable to his own Desire, and that of his Friends, to use their utmost Endeavours to save his Arm, did not proceed to an Amputation. Little or no Fever ensued, and after a few Days the Pain abated, and the wounded Part began to suppurate. But notwithstanding many flattering Symptoms of a favourable Issue, yet, on the Morning of the 15th Instant, he unexpectedly and suddenly expired, without any visible Mortification in the Part, unless livid and blackish Streaks, under his wounded Arm, and on that Side might be judged Indications of it. Captain Reading's placid, easy, open, benevolent, engaging Disposition and Conduct, had rendered him the Object of universal Esteem and Affection wherever he was known; hence his Death is very justly and greatly regretted! It is not only an unspeakable Loss to a deeply afflicted Widow, and a large Family of small Children, but to the particular Society to which he belonged, of which he was a very useful Member, and to all his Acquaintance. He was one of the most loving and affectionate Husbands, the tenderest of Fathers, and a steady Friend; and his immature and unexpected Death, in the Prime of his Days, and in the Midst of Usefulness, shews the Vanity of Man in his best Estate, and the great Necessity of attending to our Lord's Admonition, "Be ye also ready, for in such an Hour as ye think not the Son of Man cometh." It is said the Gun, which was instrumental in the above unhappy Affair, had sundry Times before gone off in the same unexpected and surprizing Manner."14 |

Name Variation | Marten Reyerse was also known as Marten Reyerszen.6 |
Baptism | Marten was baptized on 23 November 1637 at Nieuwe Kerk in Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, Netherlands .7 |
Birth* | He was born before 23 November 1637, son of Reijer Reijersz and Marritje Francen, at Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, Netherlands.4,7 |
Immigration* | Marten immigrated to New Netherlands in 1646.8,3,7 |

Biography* | A biographical sketch of Marten Reyerse was written in the "Register in Alphabetical Order, of the Early Settlers of Kings County, Long Island, N.Y." in 1881. Marten, emigrated from Amsterdam in 1646 and settled in Brooklyn; m. May 14, 1663, Annetje dau. of Joris Jansen Rapalie. On assessment rolls of Brooklyn of 1675, '76, and '83; member of Brooklyn church in 1677; magistrate in 1679; constable in 1682, as per Furman; and name on patent of Flatbush in 1685, to which place he may possibly have removed. Signed his name "Marten Ryersen."8 |
Biography | A biographical sketch of Marten Reyerse was written in the "The Genealogy of the Ryerson Family in America, 1646-1902" in 1902. Marten Ryersen was piously educated, for we have evidence of his being a church attendant, and aslo a church member previous to his marriage. About the time of his marriage he was received as a member into the church of Brooklyn, from the church of Flatbush, and from that time on, he probably continued to reside at Brooklyn, or the Wallabout. In the assessment roll on file in the States General Offices, Amsterdam, Holland, of the "Real and personal property of the inhabitants of Breucklen, 20th August, 1675," is found: "Maerten Ryerse, 1 poll, 4 horses, 1 do. of 3 years, 2 do. of 2 years, 1do. of 1 year, 1 hog, 115 pounds 10 shillings. Three and one-half morgens of land and valley, 63 pounds. Total, 178 pounds 10 shillings." In 1676 he was assessed for sixty-three acres of land, and his property valued at 180 pounds - the third highest on the list. In 1683 he was assessed for thirty-eight acres, and his property valued at 122 pounds 10 shillings. He was twice a deacon in the Brooklyn Church, the last time in 1677. He was a magistrate in 1679, and named in a patent of Flatbush in 1685. He probably died between this date and 1687, as his name does not appear among those who in that year took the oath of allegiance to England, while we do find on the list the name of his eldest son, Joris.13 |

Biography | A biographical sketch of Joris Jansen Rapalje was written in the "History of the City of Brooklyn, New York" from 1867 to 1870. Joris (George) Jansen de Rapalie, who is supposed to have been a proscribed Huguenot, from Rochelle in France, came to this country in 1623, in the ship Unity, with Catalina Trico, his wife, and settled first at Fort Orange, near Albany, from whence he removed, in 1626, to New Amsterdam. Here, in the occupancy of a homestead on the north side of the present Pearl street, and adjoining the south side of the fort, he resided for more than 1650. During a portion of these years he was an innkeeper or tapster, and his name frequently occurs as such upon the books of the Burgomaster's Court until 1654. That he possessed the confidence of his fellow-citizens is evidenced by the fact, that in August, 1641, he was one of the Twelve Men representing Manhattan, Breuckelen, and Pavonia, chosen for the purpose of deliberating upon measures necessary to be adopted to punish the Indians for the murders which they had committed. About 1654, he probably removed his permanent residence to his farm at the “Waal-boght;” for in 1655, '56, '57, and 1660, he was one of the magistrates of Breuckelen, with which town his whole subsequent life was identified.10 |
Biography* | A biographical sketch of Joris Jansen Rapalje was written in the "Register in Alphabetical Order, of the Early Settlers of Kings County, Long Island, N.Y." in 1881. Joris Jansen, the common ancestor of the family, emigrated in 1623; m. Catalyntje dau. of Joris Trico of Paris; d. about 1665. Resided at first in Albany, where his dau. Sarah was born, and not in Brooklyn as asserted by some writers, then in New Amsterdam and finally on his plantation at the Wallabout in Brooklyn of 167 morgens, for which he obtained a patent June 16, 1637. Was one of the 12 men representing the New Netherlands in 1641, and magistrate of Brooklyn in 1655, '56, '57, '60, and '62. Some writers prefix a De to his surname so as to make it De Rapalie, but the compiler has seen no conclusive evidence to justify it, nor has he found among the public and private records of this vicinity or elsewhere an instance where either Joris Jansen or any of his descendants have made use of said prefix. Made his mark "R" to documents.9 |
Biography | A biographical sketch of Joris Jansen Rapalje was written in the "The Ryerson Genealogy" in 1916. Joris Jansen de Rapelje came from Rochelle, France in the ship "New Netherlands," the first ship sent out by the West India Company. He was married either just prior to his journey, upon the voyage, or shortly after his arrival. At any rate the lady who became his wife came on the same ship with him. Her name was Catalina Tricot. She was a daughter of George Tricot, and was born in Paris, France, in 1605. They were destined to become the parents of the first white child born in the colony, namely, Sarah Rapelje, who was born at Fort Orange (now Albany) in the year 1625 on June 9. This circumstance identifies the family with the very foundation of Christian civilization in America. The children and grandchildren intermarried with the Ryerson family, thus uniting the two families. A sister of Sarah, aforesaid, Annetje (Anne), was born February 8, baptized March 18, 1646, and married Marten Ryerson, of Amsterdam. Their descendants form the Ryerson family of today. Joris Jansen de Rapalje, with his wife, Catalina, first settled, in 1623, at Fort Orange, where his first child was born. He remained at Fort Orange about three years and then removed to New Amsterdam, where he remained nearly twenty-two years, occupying and owning a house and lot on the north side of the present Pearl Street, and abutting the sourth side of the fort, and for which he received a patent on the 18th of March, 1647.1 |

Obit-Text* | The following is a transcription of that obituary: One of our Correspondents from the Country writes us as follows, viz. Amwell, in Hunterdon County, New-Jersey. 17 Messieurs HALL and SELLERS, ALTHO' I am one of your constant Readers, yet I have been a little surprized, that I found no Mention made in any of the public Papers of the Death or Character of JOHN READING, Esq; late of this Place, especially as his Station and Character was eminent. That God, who has said, "The Righteous shall be had in everlasting Remembrance," no Doubt expects that we should actively concur in accomplishing that sacred Declaration. And besides, as Example teaches more powerfully than Precept, so, illustrious Examples of Virtue being set before us, excite us to a noble Emulation. These Considerations have induced me to give you the following Strictures of his Character - - - The God of Nature endowed Mr. Reading, with good, natural Powers - - - a Genius above the common Level. His Judgment was clear and manly; his Thoughts under good Command; his Expressions ready and pertinent. He justly supported the Character of being a strictly honest Man; one of unshaken Integrity and Uprightness. He was under the Advantage of an early liberal education; and had his Mind enriched with an useful Store of Knowledge - - - all which Things conspired to qualify him to act with Dignity in the several important Stations in which he was placed in Life; and he had the deserved Honour of being entrusted with some of the most important Offices in the Government. He was early appointed a Member of his Majesty's Council in this Province, and was twice the President-Governor of it, which important Offices he executed with a becoming Dignity, Judgment and Fidelity. And though distinguished with such honorable Trusts, he did not appear at all elevated by them, but behaved with that Meekness and Gentleness; that Evenness and Agreeableness, that happily marked his whole Character; and with Condescension and Respect to the meanest and poorest, as well as to the greatest. He was remarkably inoffensive and cautious in his Conduct, and steady, solid and grave in his Deportment; yet he was not morose or sullen, gloomy or impolite. It might be said, without flattering Panegyric, that he never undertook any Trust, to which he was not eminently faithful, nor sustained any Relation, whether of a Husband, Parent, Friend, Counsellor or Ruler, but he was conscientious in the Discharge of it. And he had the rare Art of doing worthily without appearing conscious of it. He was temperate in his Enjoyments, and charitable to the Poor; was far from being vain and showy in his Appearance; on the contrary, it was plain and unaffected; when he spake, it was with a natural Guard and Prudence; seldom did an unguarded Word drop from his Lips - - - He did not love to deal in Calumny or Detraction, or engage in Party Quarrels, but was a quiet and peaceable Member of Society; was scarcely known to speak to the Disadvantage of any, even though their Conduct was disagreeable; but prudently concealed his Sentiments in his own Breast, and suffered their own Actions to be the severest Libel on their Fame. He manifested an high Regard to RELIGION, and was a constant Attendant on public Worship; was Catholic in his Sentiments, and loved good Men of every Denomination of Christians - - - He had a strict Regard to Truth, and was punctual to his Word - - - Was universally beloved, and died lamented on the Fifth Day of November last." |
Obituary | His obituary was published 1 February 1768 in the Philadelphia, Bucks County, Pennsylvania,15 |
Obit-Text | The following is a transcription of that obituary: We hear from Amwell, in New-Jersey, that on the 5th of November last, the Honourable John Reading, Esq; late President of His Majesty's Council for that Province, died there, in an advanced Age, much lamented for his many great and eminent Virtues. 15 |
Biography* | A biographical sketch of John Reading was written in the "The Kentuckian-Citizen; Early Bourbon Families; Reading" in 1914.

John Reading Bible, his sister Elizabeth died in 1692; his sister Sarah in 1691 and his sister Mary in 1732. The will of Daniel Howell dated Sept. 9, 1733 indicates the recent death of his wife, and this will names his "brother-in-law John Reading" as one of the execs. This old Bible record was discovered by Mr. Hiram E. Deats, Genealogist of Flemington, N.J. and published by him in the Publications of the Gen. Society of Penn. (1930-32 Vol. XI, p. 72/3). It was found in not the usual Bible, but in a volume of sermons, London, 1676, which Mr. Deats believes Gov. John Reading must have bought when he was over there in school. It was given by Mr. Deats to the N.J. Historical Society. The births, deaths, etc., are in Gov. John's handwriting up until his death. Until its discovery there was no date of marriage of the 1st John Reading, or death date of his wife Elizabeth, nor list of their children. John Reading, son of John and Elizabeth Reading, was born at Gloucester, New Jersey, June 6, 1686. His father desired educational advantages for his son, and he and his sister were sent with their mother to England where they remained for several years. On November 3, 1718, at the age of 32, he was nominated to a seat in the provincial council and March 28, 1719 was appointed one of the commissioners to run the lines between East and West New Jersey. In 1720 he was selected as surveyor. June 24, 1720 he was appointed on his Majesty's Council but did not take his seat until March 1721 which office he retained until 1758 when he resigned. He was Justice from 1724 to 1750; February 10, 1727 Col. of Mil. Reg. of Foot for Hunterton Co., also in 1729; Appointed February 10, 1727 as President Judge of the Court of Common Pleas. August 14, 1727 commissioned Surrogate for Hunterdon and Somerset Counties; November 6, 1728 was appointed by the Crown one of the Judges to try pirates. In July 15, 1730 Reading Twp. (present Readington, New Jersey) was set off by Royal Patent and named in his honor. In 1735 he acted as Agent for the family of William Penn for their New Jersey lands: April 18, 1740 he was appointed Enlistment officer in the War against Spain. In 1740 was commissioner of Boundary, to define boundary between Massachusettes and Rhode Island; 1741-44 Speaker of the Council; 1746-48 Founder and Trustee of the College of New Jersey (Princeton); 1747 Acting Governor and Commander in Chief, being the first native-born Jerseyman to govern the province. September 9, 1757 he again took the oath as Governor which position he held until June 16, 1758 when Gov. Francis Bernard succeeded to the office. On July 28, 1758 he resigned from his Majesty's Council, and in due time the King accepted the resignation and appointed a successor as President of the Council. At this time he retired to private life until his death November 5, 1767. His will, in his own handwriting, dated October 1, 1767; codicil(?) October 29; is a long and interesting one; it shows his extensive landed interests, as well as his valuable personal property. He leaves the use of "the Riding Chair and Chair Horse" to his wife Mary, "to use when and as often as she pleases"; money to be paid to her quarterly" she is to have the use of one of the Rooms in my present dwelling house with plenty of good and suitable firewood at all seasons of the year, to be cut and brought to the door of her room, and fires thereof at all times to be made" He leaves his son George (the Bourbon County pioneer) his Surveying Instruments, also extensive lands, and in the codicil he leaves land to his son George in trust for the grandchildren, John Mullen Reading and George Reading, Jr. His books were to be divided equally to his survivng sons and the eldest son of his deceased son in a manner "most suitable to their genius and inclination" excepting those of Church History, Religion & Divinity, which were to be shared equally. He left Dr. Whitby's Paraphrase and Commentary on the New Testament in Two Volumes to his sons-in-law, Messrs. Beatty and Mills, and made his sons, Daniel, Joseph and Thomas his Execs. "Desiring of them for God's Sake, the Honour and Interest of the Family, to cause the same to be affectionately and justly performed." The Pennsylvania Gazette of July 28, 1768 published a beautiful tribute to our ancestor. On 30 November 1720 when John was 34, he married Mary "Maritje" Ryerson, daughter of George Ryerson and Anna "Hannah" Schouten. Mary "Maritje" died on 11 April 1774 in Amwell Twp. Hunterdon Co., New Jersey, "Walnut Grove". Research: John Reading married Nov. 30, 1720 Mary (Maritje) Ryerson, who was baptized July 19, 1699 at the old Reformed Dutch Church in New York City, the daughter of George (Joris) Ryerson by his first wife, Hanna (Anna Schouten Dey, daughter of Johannes Schouten and widow of Teunis Dey). Joris (or as the name is Anglicized to George) Ryerson was the son of Marten Ryerson who came from Amsterdam, Holland in 1646 and settled in the Wallabout (Brooklyn), Long Island. Martin Ryerson married May 14, 1663 Annetje Joris de Repelje, born February 8, 1646, the daughter of the Immigrants, Joris Janson de Rapelje and his wife, Catalyntie Trico. (See D.A.C. Lin. Bk., Vol. 6, pp. 340/2, No. 5984, Nell Downing Norton). Mary Ryerson Reading died in Amwell Twp. Hunterdon Co., New Jersey, April 11, 1774, at the Reading estate called "Walnut Grove;" both Gov. Reading and his wife are buried in the burying-ground of the old Amwell Presbyterian Church, with which he was connected, and for which he provided a silver communion service in his will.
