Source: J. Percy Crayon, Rockaway Records of Morris County, N. J. Families, (Rockaway, N.J., Rockaway Publishing Co., 1902) Through the kindness of Mr. Daniel H. arpenter, the collector and compiler or of a valuable historical and genealogical work ‘The Hoagland Family in America” I am largely indebted for this branch of the family who settled in Morris County, and connected with the interests of Rockaway, and related t many of the worthy families. I only regret that the brief space of these genealogies will not admit of so much valuable information relating to the early settlements. There are a few who can or will realize as they read this sketch, that it has taken years of patient research and at a very great expense to accomplish the end.
