Some of his children settled in Perth Amboy and are noticed in Whitehead's History of that place. Through their mother they descended from the noted Fenwick family of England, in which they took great pride.

east branch of the Raritan river and the whale pond on the sea side." Col. Morris was appointed by the Governor a member of the Council, in which body he took his seat. Col. Morris was originally from Monmouthshire, Wales. In the civil war in England, he raised a troop of horse for Parlia- ment, for which Charles the First confiscated his estate.

He was High Sheriff of the county of Monmouth, 1697-8, and member of the Provincial Assembly 1708-9-10. In 1697 land was deeded to him by Obadiah Bowne and in 1710 by John Bowne second. It is supposed that he was a son of Adam Mott, of New York, and that he mn. Dorothy (Deborah ?), dan. of Capt. John Bowne. "There was a John Mott of Hanover, in Hunterdon county, who made will dated 1732. James Mott was among taxpayers, 1761, in Middletown town- ship, and a member of Assembly 1777-9. During the Revolution, James Mott, Jr., owned land near l'oms River, and lived by the bayside a short distance above Island Heights. During the Revolution some of the Mott family in Monmonth were Quakers. A prominent member of that sect was Ebenezer Mott who settled at Barnegat about 1745. Major-Gen. Gershom Mott was b. in Trenton, Aug. 7, 1822, and d. Nov., 1885. His grandfather was Capt. John Mott who served in the Continental army and at the time of the Battle of Trenton, was a guide to Gen.

For gallantry on the field he was promoted to be a brigadier and subsequently a major-general. At the Battle of the Wilderness he commanded the "Iron Brigade " and in leading a charge he was severely wounded and had to retire from the field. After the war he was State Treasurer, State Prison-keeper and filled other honorable positions. There are two distinct Mott families in this country and as the founders of both lines were named Adam and both had sons Adam -- one having two sons of that name by different wives-considerable confusion is found in some attempts to trace their respective descendants.
