Peter MONTROSS
After the war, he joined the 30,000 Loyalists who fled their homes to settle at New Brunswick. On 18 Jan 1785, he petitioned with three others for a grant of 15,000 acres on the Penniac Creek, ten miles above St. Ann's, N.B. (New Brunswick). The grant was allowed and divided into 31 lots between 26 individuals. Lot # 1, 162 acres went to Peter Montross. The farm proved marginal, and, in 1797, Peter moved to Upper Canada (Ontario).
He petitioned for land in Norfolk County and was granted rights to 2,200 acres as a Loyalist. They settled at Charlotteville Twp, where the present day village of St. Williams is situated, He died there on 27 Aug 1833. Leah died there on 13 Mar 1835.

MONTROSS
IN the war of American Independence, Peter Montross, sen., had been a soldier in the Loyal American Regiment, and at the close of the war settled in New Brunswick.
In 1799 his three sons, Levy, Silas and Peter, and their three sisters, came west to Long Point, settling in Charlotteville near the lake. They each received from the Government two hundred acres in Charlotteville, under date of Order-in-Council 17th February, 1802.
(The allotment of Silas was Lot 20 of the 1st concession, near the "Glen".)
The wife of Silas Montross was Sarah, daughter of Frederick Maby.
She received one of the first grants of land given in that section, the entry being the third on page 1, folio I. of the Docket Book for warrants of survey to U. E. Loyalists and military claimants.
The various sons of Silas Montross also received free land. Evidently both the father, Peter Montross, and son Silas, were in active service in the Revolutionary War, for Silas is mentioued also in the list of the Loyal American Regiment; but at the time of the war he must have been very young.
PHOEBE, FRANCES and MARGARET Montross, the three original sisters, became the pioneer mothers of large and influential families. They married, respectively, Andrew McCleish, Thomas Price and Lawrence Johnson.

Hi Elaine,
Sorry I did not e-mail you sooner. My computer crashed about a month ago and I had to wait for a new one so I am just now getting back on my feet. Anyway, I am a descendant of Frederick Mabee and Levinah Pelham, however, I have several conflicting sources of information. Would like to exchange information with you. I can also be reached at the following e-mail: esther_m_thompson@excite.com
This one I can pick up my messages from any computer.
Hope to hear from you soon.

400. Col John ROSENCRANS was born 6 Jul 1724 in Rochester, Ulster Co., NY and was christened 6 Jul 1725. He died 5 Jun 1786 and was buried in Old Shapanack, Sussex Co NJ. John married Margaret DEWITT on 8 Aug 1751 in Kingston. [Parents]
BIOGRAPHY: 16. JOHANNIS ROSENKRANS 2nd, son of Alexander (2), was born in Rochester, Ulster County New York, July 6, 1724, and baptized July 6th following. At seven years of age he accompanied his parents to Walpack, Sussex County, New Jersey, then Morris County, when the country was mostly a wilderness and the forests frequently resounded with the cries of the panther and the wild whoop of the Indians. Along the banks of the Delaware he grew to manhood, and while deprived of the educational advantages of city or modern rural life, he became a man of moral worth and Public usefulness, an extensive farmer, an elder of the church and a Colonel in the Continental army. In 1745, Colonel John purchased of his father the homestead Shappanack farm, of about 500 acres, adjoining the farm of his brother Harmen, purchased 1742. Each of these farms, besides the uplands, contained about seventy acres of river flats of sandy loam, and very productive. The flats of the Shappanack farms today are the most noted in the count for productiveness and easy tillage, one of which is now leased by a syndicate raising special crops of tobacco and potatoes. The date and beginning of Colonel John’s deed from his father is as follows:
BIOGRAPHY: "This indenture made the 27th day of March, in the year of our Lord Christ one thousand seven hundred and forty-five, between Alexander Rosekrance, of Shappanack, in the township of Wallpeck, county of Morris and Province of West New Jersey, yeoman, and Marriky, his wife, of the one part, and Johannis Rosekrance, his youngest son, of the township, county and province aforesaid, yeoman, of the other part, WITNESSETH," etc. Having secured for himself a farm and a home, when his parents were old and feeble, or perhaps departed, Colonel John Rosenkrans contemplated marriage, but like Isaac and Jacob of old, he sought not for a wife in the place of his sojourn, but took one from the land of his fathers, the home of his kindred. On August 8th, 1751, Colonel John Rosenkrans, of Walpack. New Jersey, married Margaret DeWitt, of Rochester, Ulster County, New York, and over the "Old Mine Road," by way of Port Clinton, Port Jervis and Minisink, with perhaps as good a conveyance as the county afforded, he brought his bride from Rochester to Walpack.
BIOGRAPHY: Margaret DeWitt was born in Rochester April 18, 1731, and came of a good ancestry — from Jacob DeWitt, of Holland, it is who succeeded Barneveldt as States Advocate. Her father was Tjerck DeWitt, the son of Jacob, son of Tjerck Classen DeWitt, from the Netherlands, who, April 24, 1756, married, in New Amsterdam, Barbary Andressen, from Amsterdam, Holland. Margaret DeWitt was related to Governor DeWitt Clinton. Her grandfather had a brother Andries, whose son, Egbert, married Mary Knottingham. Egbert’s son, Jacob Rutzen DeWitt married Jenneke (Jane) DePue, daughter of Moses DuPuy and Margaret Schoonmaker, his second wife. Jacob Rutzen DeWitt was a Captain during the Revolution and settled on the Neversink at the place afterward named Fort DeWitt, on account of a fort being built there during the Revolution. His sister Mary married General James Clinton, and her son DeWitt Clinton, afterward Governor of New York, was born March 2, 1769, in the stone residence of Captain DeWitt, at Fort DeWitt, now called Port Clinton — "Church Life." Thus Colonel John Rosenkrans was connected with Governor DeWitt Clinton through his grandfather DuPuy and also through his wife, Margaret DeWitt.
BIOGRAPHY: Three years after his marriage, Colonel John Rosenkrans added to his 500 acres another tract of 705 acres, adjoining his property on the northeast. This was the Samuel Nevill tract, extending from the Delaware to across Flat Brook, and from the Shappanack tract to beyond the East and West New Jersey line, which is now the division line between the townships of Walpack and Sandyston. For this tract he paid £122, the deed for which is recorded at Newton (Book T.3, p. 89). By mistakes made in the Walpack map in "Everett & Peck’s History" the "Joseph Kirkbride" tract of 500 acres is located at Shappanack where the Alexander Rosenkrans tracts of 900 acres is situated, and the "Ennis & County" tract is located, adjoining it where the Nevill tract lies. Among the family papers of Colonel John Rosenkrans in the possession of the writer, is a deed from several parties in Rochester to John Rosenkrans, of Walpack, for a three-fourths interest in land in Ulster County, the deed of which is dated October 22nd, 1766, in the "sixth year of the reign of King George the 3rd." This land is on the Rondout, adjoining lands of Jacob DeWitt and John DeWitt, and is signed by Petrus Thool and Antje, his wife, M. Fisher and Elizabeth, his wife; Jacob G. Louw and Catharie Louw, Teunis Oosterhout, Johanna Oosterhout and Jacob Oosterhout. On the red wax seals opposite these names may yet be seen standing out boldly the red lion of England, the symbol of progressiveness and power and with England the monarch of the sea.
BIOGRAPHY: The deed for twenty acres of meadow land from Harmen to Colonel John, spoken of concerning Harmen (12), begins thus: This indenture made the first day of July, 1729, in the ninth year of the reign of our Sovereign Lord George the 3rd, by the Grace of God of Great Britain, France and Ireland, King, Defender of the Faith" etc. Besides these lands in Sussex County and Ulster, Colonel John Rosenkrans owned two tracts, or farms, amounting to 275 acres, in Northampton County, Pennsylvania, situated between Shappanack and Dingmans Choice, one of which tracts he received by "patent" and the other by purchase from the heirs of William Penn. He was one of the leading men of the Delaware Valley and of the County the earliest settlers of the County having located on the Delaware, among whom were some able men. Colonel Abraham VanCampen, Colonel John Cleves Symmes and Colonel John Rosenkrans were successively Colonels of the Delaware Valley. Abraham VanCampen was Colonel and engaged in checking the depredations of the Indians, 1755. John Cleves Symmes was Commissioned Colonel at the beginning of the Revolution, and Captain John Rosenkrans was appointed Colonel when Colonel Symmes resigned for the Judgeship, May 23, 1777. Colonel John in his time served as Freeholder, Justice of the Peace, Committeeman of Safety before the war; as Captain at its beginning, and as Colonel from 1777 to its close.
BIOGRAPHY: He was also an active Christian; an Elder of the Reformed Dutch Church, and gave the grounds for the burial place and the church erected on his farm. The church was built of logs, octagonal in form and erected about 1770. Among the early burials there was the wife of Colonel John Cleves Symmes; the mother-in-law of President William Henry Harrison, buried 1776. Her grave is on the brow of the hill near the road, and on her headstone still standing there is the following inscription: "In remembrance of Mrs. Anna Symmes, who, was born October, 1741; married to the Hon. Jno. C. Symmes, 30th October, 1760, and died 25th July, 1776, leaving two daughters, Maria and Anna." Anna married William Henry Harrison, in Ohio, and was buried at North Bend, Ohio. Her father was buried there also February, 1814. Brief records as soldiers are given of Colonel John Rosenkrans and his sons Jacob, Alexander and Benjamin, in Adjutant General W. S. Striker’s reports of the New Jersey soldiers of the Revolution and of the war of 1812, Benjamin having been in the latter. In "Everett & Peck’s History," p. 64 is found the following: "Colonel John Rosenkrans and Major Samuel Westbrook were also actively engaged during the war. Colonel Rosenkrans accompanied General Sullivan in his campaign against the Indians of the upper Susquehanna and Genesee valley in 1779. General Maxwell also commanded a brigade in the memorable campaign. One battalion of Colonel Rosenkrans’ regiment was led by Major Samuel Westbrook against a party of Indians, April 19, 1780. In this action Captain Peter Westbrook was killed."
BIOGRAPHY: Colonel John kept slaves on his farm, as did Isaac VanCampen on the adjoining property, and made a will, 1756, now in the writer’s possession, which never went to probate, containing the following items: He bequeathed to his "beloved wife Margaret" the choice of his "winches," and to his eldest son, John, as a "birthright gift," his "shooting-gun." In his last will, 1786, recorded at the close of this biography, Colonel John bequeathed to his eldest son John his "Negro boy Cuff." The VanCampens, Isaac and his son Abraham succeeded the Rosenkranses in the possession of the Shappanack farms, and they were succeeded by the DeWitts, who also kept slaves.
BIOGRAPHY: The following is copied from "Ever & Peck’s History of Sussex," p. 321 concerning a slave on the Shappanack farm: "The DeWitts had many slaves and among them was an interesting old servant called ‘Caesar’ — Caesar Soults was his name. New Jersey abolished slavery (by an act passed) April 18, 1846. By the census of 1830 there was but one slave in Sussex county; this was Caesar Soults. He had refused to accept his freedom, clinging to his old home, and associations, and choosing to remain for the rest of his life upon the farm. The DeWitts had been kind to their slaves. Some two or three years before the death of Caesar, Peter DeWitt, now of Somerville, New Jersey, kindly provided for the faithful old servant by hiring his board in a respectable colored family of the neighborhood, that of Absolam Raymer, where he spent the remainder of his days, being frequently visited and kindly cared for by Peter DeWitt. He died March 11, 1860. As with colored people generally, his age was not certainly known. Mr. Dewitt says, ‘I was never able to learn the correct date of his birth. My grandfather used to say that when he was a young married man and just beginning to farm, Caesar was a boy old enough to plow, and from that circumstance I judge he was in the neighborhood of one hundred years old when he died. ’"
BIOGRAPHY: The writer knew all of the above parties, except the "grandfather," and was thirty years of age when Caesar died — the last slave of Sussex county, and perhaps of the State. Colonel John made his last will May 1st, 1786, and died June 15th following. Of Margaret’s death we have no record, though she was living at the time his will was made. No lettered monument points out the place of their burial, but it is probably near that of Mrs. Anna Symmes, on the hill top of the Shappanack burial ground. Colonel John Rosenkrans had fourteen children: John, Jacob, Orianna, Orianna 2nd, Alexander, Catharine, Charick DeWitt, Elijah, Levi, Joseph, Benjamin, Simeon, Simeon 2nd and Polly.
