De Camp Genealogy: Laurent De Camp of New Utrecht, N.Y., 1664, and his descendants
Morrison, George Austin
DeCamp family; DeCamp, Laurent, approximately 1645-; New Utrecht (New York, N.Y.) -- Genealogy
Footnote 14:
NOTE.—Either this Moses (or his cousin) was in Col. Chas. Webb’s 19th
Cont. Army, Capt. Bostwicks’ Co. who crossed the Delaware Xmas 1776,
Adjt.-Gen. Johnstone (Com.) Roster of Troops, including some N. J.
troops. Morris of Westfield, N. J., where Moses came from (in roll is
called Moses Camp).
Footnote 15:
NOTE.—These children are given by Miss Wilson of Elgin, Ill., and must
have died before the will was made.
Footnote 16:
NOTE.—An admirable compilation of these Ohio De Camp families has been
made by James M. De Camp, of Cincinnati, Ohio, entitled “Record of the
Descendants of Ezekiel and Mary Baker De Camp, of Butler County,
Ohio,” which was printed and published by the Western Methodist Book
Concern, Cincinnati, O., in 1896 (pages 177), and to which reference
is directed. As a record has been made of these De Camps of Butler
Co., the compiler of the within work has not incorporated this branch
of the general De Camp family into the present compilation.
Footnote 17:
NOTE.—It may be that this Gideon^6 De Camp was not a son of Morris^5
De Camp (John^4, Henry^3, Laurence^2, John^1). He could not be
identical with Gideon^4 (Henry^3, Laurence^2, John^1), baptized 1721,
May 21, or with Gideon^4 (Gideon^3, Laurence^2, John^1) baptized 1727,
Oct. 15. He is clearly a grandson of Henry^3 (Laurence^2, John^1), but
the fact that he was a physician in good circumstances owning several
valuable tracts of land at Elizabeth, Westfield, and Rahway, is
indicative that he might not be identical with the Gideon^6 (Morris^5,
John^4, Henry^3, Laurence^2, John^1) mentioned in Sheriff’s Deed,
Isaac Ward, Sheriff, to Moses Jacques, dated 11 Jan. 1804, recorded
Newark Registry in Book H. of Deeds, page 522, as one against whose
land a judgment writ of fi. fa. was issued and under which the land
was seized and sold.
Footnote 18:
NOTE.—The above De Camp line was furnished by James A. De Camp of 95
Reade street, N. Y. city, who states that perhaps Elihu De Camp was a
son of Lemuel De Camp. This, however, the lineal descendants of Lemuel
De Camp deny, and no mention is made of such a son in the will of
Hannah De Camp, widow of said Lemuel De Camp. Mr. De Camp further
states that Elihu De Camp had another daughter Mary, but if so she is
not mentioned in either her father’s or mother’s will. It therefore
remains to trace out the father of Elihu De Camp.
