Second Edition Printed, 1915. 1233693 PREFACE. When the publication of these articles on the Early Dutch Settlers of Monmouth was begun in The Freehold Transcript, I had no idea they would develop to such Length. Several of the articles written for the weekly issues of this newspaper read all right therein, but now, gathered together in hook form, they appear fragmentary and disconnected. A great deal of time and labor by more than one person has been devoted to gathering material from public records, family papers, tombstone inscriptions, and other original sources of information. Much of this is comprised in short notes and small type, and, by putting these compilations in hook form they will be accessible for reference. For there is much work to be done before a full genealogy can be written of either the Conover, Hendrickson, or Schanck families. The illustrations are chiefly old dwelling houses erected by the early settlers or their sons. The buildings are disappear- ing before the march of improvement and the decay of time, and in another generation not one will probably he left. Some are of the Dutch style of architecture, others of the English, but they show the radical difference of the two races in character. 1 have been unable to procure the likeness of any of our pioneer settlers, and therefore was compelled to select persons of the present generation, who bear in form or features a strong family resemblance to their parental ancestors.

The matter was mostly prepared many years ago. The Editor has had added by another hand such omissions as were found by comparison with the published "Index of Wills, Inventories," etc., but has not personally made the Abstracts, and is not responsible for their accuracy. He has simply made the text available for the printer, as the Abstracts were not in the necessary technical shape for that purpose. As the Abstracts have been made by different persons employed, they are not always uniform in style, but alike give the necessary facts.

BOGGS HALIFAX, CANADA ROYAL PRINT AND LITHO, LIMITED 1916 1553005 PREFACE In preparing this family record, I am indebted to various members of the family who have very generously assisted me in my effort to collect reliable information by contribut­ ing much that would otherwise have been beyond my reach. Original documents and personal correspondence, handed down from the days of our forefathers, have been placed at my disposal, and from them I have been able to cull much that is of interest. With regard to the American Branch of the family I have been particularly fortunate in the collaboration of Mr. J. Lawrence Boggs, of Newark, New Jersey, whose in­ timate knowledge of that branch of the family has given to us what we know about its members. His genuine interest and hearty support in the production of this record have been an indispensable factor in its growth and publication. From his very valuable collection of old letters, wills, and business papers, which have been accessible to me, a collection which represents the work of years, I have gathered much that is found in the earlier pages of the record, as well as some of the copies of old documents found in the Appendix. For information regarding certain of the families which have intermarried with the Nova Scotia Branch, I am par­ ticularly indebted to Rev. Arthur W.
