Joyce's Search Tip - January 2008 Do You Know that you can search just the 700 pages of Military Records on the site by using the Military button in the Partitioned search engine at the bottom of the Current What's New Page?

Dear Joyce, I would like to add the name of Jacob STOLL (sometimes spelled as "STULL") to the list of Rev. War soldiers of Tioga County. This has been
a difficult search partly due to Jacob's association with "Newtown (Newton), Sussex County, NJ and then "Newtown", NY. Also members of the original
"STOL" family settled in different counties in NJ. Jacob was a member of Newtown's(Newton's), NJ "committee of safety" as well as Captain of the local "6 Company" which served in both PA and Delaware during 1778. I have copies of the original payment records signed by Cap't Jacob Stoll for his company of 60 men of Col. Hankinson's Regiment. These records vary according to # of men involved and where service took place. On 26/May/1784, Jacob sold his 50 acre tract, containing the old mill etc., in "Newton", NJ to his brother, John.  The next record of Jacob STULL is when he purchased lot #69 in Oct. 1788, 104 acres, in what was to be Southport, Chemung Co., NY.  Jacob, son of John (Jans) STOLL was b. circa 1741 m. Sara Pittenger (1773--1764) d. 14/Nov/1809 in Tioga (Chemung Co) NY.
His son, Jacob Jr., b. circa 1775 m. "Phebe CASE of Newton", NJ d. 13/Jan/1852.  I have much info re: son of Jacob, Jr. and Phebe, James STOLL.
I would like to know where 1st and 2nd mentioned Jacobs are buried. I do know where James and his wife, Adeline McKeel SMITH are buried although your site lists them as "STROLL".  This is not the name on the tombstones. I would appreciate any information anyone might have re: Phebe CASE.  Jacob
probably returned to NJ to marry Phebe as she is listed by Justice of the Peace John Gustin to be living in Newton (later Frankford) Township, NJ.
Although I know gr-parents of Adeline McKeel SMITH (m. James STOLL) were Gabriel SMITH and Polly Peterson and parents were Gabriel SMITH Jr. and #1 wife, Sarah MCKEEL, I cannot sort out the Gabriel L. SMITH and just Gabriel SMITH mentioned in History of Chemung County.  If you know of anyone who could help, I'd be grateful.  I had emailed a person but she just replied that if I could substantiate that Adeline was a member of her Gabriel SMITH, it would be interesting. Thanks for your attention. Jacqueline (Jackie)

You have listed John G. Huyler and his wives 1) Hannah Whitney 2) Phebe R. Slocum on your page for Rev. War Veterans and their spouses.  I would like to add addition data on John.

John G. Huyler was born 4 Oct 1763 in Hackensack, Bergen Co., NJ.  He died 10 Sept. 1846 in Westfield, Tioga Co., PA.  John G not only served in the Amer. War but in the War of 1812 as well.  He was wounded in the battle of Queenstown, N.Y. and taken, a prisoner, into Canada.  This information is from affidavits filed to obtain a military pension.

John G Huyler and his first wife Hannah Whitney are my 4th great grandparents.
