40 Anna M. Stout; married Charles S. Todd, of New Albany, Ind., and had two children.
4I Addie M. Stout; married George O. Hart, of Paducah, Kentucky, and had two children.
"The Stout family, descended from the two old ship captains, Jacob and John, were numerous; but at this day the race is nearly extinct.
Captain Jacob Stout [died 1821] had several children. In 1795, he lived at Amboy, where he had the yellow fever. He was so near death that his family felt justified in ordering his coffin.
Jacob, Jr., was a son of his first wife; so was John.
Catharine, his daughter, married Asher Marx, Oct. 8, 1808. [She died 1811.] They were married by Rev. Doctor Beach. Mr. Marx was a very eminent merchant for years, under the firm of Marx & Linsley, at No. 74 Queens street, where he kept for over twenty years, or until he died, in his house, No. 673 Broadway, in 1824. He married a second time, I think, a Miss Carroll. She lived many years after his death, and left several children."
"The second wife of Capt. Jacob Stout was a Miss [Frances] Carpender [half-sister of his first wife.] Before he married her- or in 1796, when he quit sea life-he went up to Westchester, and bought a place at Yonkers. It was the old Stone Mills. He afterwards sold it to Joseph Howland, the father of G. G. Howland. Old Captain Stout was, as I have said, an Englishman by birth. He sailed, first, from London in one of the East India Company's ships, the 'Sampson,' from Ostend to Calcutta. He was taken a prisoner in the French war. He had charge, at the time, of a letter of marque. He was a prisoner on board the flag-ship of the Count de Grasse, when Admiral Rodney took the French fleet.
His second wife was a daughter of William Carpender, a shipmaster. The latter married a daughter of William Grant, the first person who ever imported potatoes from abroad. He used always to be found at King's Coffee House.
Capt. Jacob had by his second wife, Miss Carpender, the following children: Matthew White Stout, [born 1796], named after old Henry White, a great merchant as early as 1769, before the war and afterwards. His daughters, the Miss Whites, I have already written about. The next son was Aquilla Giles Stout, [born 1799]. He was named after Col. Aquilla Giles, who was a very celebrated man in his day; lived for many years at 54 Broadway, and had a country seat in the upper part of Greenwich village. Another son was William Carpender [Stout], [born 1801], named after his mother's father, Capt. William Carpender, who married Miss Grant.
Capt. Jacob Stout's fourth child was Sarah Ann, [born 1804; died 1808]. She died young. The fifth was Charles Raintaux Stout, [born 1802]. He was named after an old merchant Anthony [Raintaux].
Frances Hogan, [born 1806], was the sixth child. She married Captain Breeze of the navy.
The seventh child was named Lenox Stout, [born 1809], after old Robert Lenox, who was an intimate friend of old Robert.
The eighth child was Arthur Breeze Stout, [born 1814; died, unmarried, 1898, in San Francisco].
All of these children are deceased, except. William Carpender Stout, [died 1870], and A. Breeze Stout. [All dead, in 1832, except William, Rainteaux and others.]
Old Capt. Jacob Stout, after he sold his mills at Yonkers, purchased a place at Belleville, where he put up a flouring mill. He ground for the city and for the country. He had two mills. He bought of Doctor Ogilvey, the Episcopal minister. He lived out there in the summer, and resided in the city in the winter. He died about 1823.
Jacob, the eldest son of old Capt. Jacob, married [Susan], a daughter of Arthur Breeze, of Utica. They had two children-a son [Edward] and a daughter [Sarah Lansing Stout]. The son entered the navy. He married a daughter of Commodore Aulick. He was a lieutenant, and lost in [on] the Levant. He left a widow and two children. They are in France. [His issue were deceased in 1905.]
Aquilla G. Stout, left a son Francis A., who is still alive. Also a daughter, Sarah Morris Stout. She married a Monsieur De Veatt Gringues, [Baron de Vaugrigneuse], of the French Legation. [He died during the siege of Paris; she died Apr. 22, 1904.]
Consul Ridgway, of Santa Cruz, married the widow of old Captain Jacob Stout [first].

HISTORICAL MISCELLANY
Captain W. C. Stout married Miss Henry, daughter of old Captain Henry, one of the oldest captains out of this port forty years ago. Old Captain Henry married Miss Harved. She was a daughter of Jonathan Harved. They lived in Pearl street. Mr. Harved was one hundred years old when he died, and his wife ninety-three. They lived together sixty years. He died in Charles street.
Captain Henry had three daughters. He always said that they never should marry sailors. Yet all did. One married Captain Stout; another married Com. Montgomery, U. S. N., now in command at Boston; another married Dr. Hosea Edwards, of Bridgeport, a Surgeon in the Navy. Old Captain Henry was in the Liverpool trade.
Captain Stout I have given a full history of in another chapter. He has a place at Huntington, Long Island, where he spends his summers; and in the winter he stops at the New York Hotel. He has no children. [He died in 1870, and his wife, Delia, died in 1877.]
Nearly all of the Stout family descended from old Captain Jacob are dead. There were descendants from Captain John, but I believe they are dead too. That family lived in Courtlandt street. One son was Ben Stout. He was lost in the West Indies. His body was buried in Trinity Churchyard.
Amos Butler, who was one of the owners of the Daily Mercantile Advertiser thirty years ago, married one of the Miss Stouts. I believe his descendants are living in the city."

Franklin Ellis, in his History of Monmouth County, New Jersey, (Philadelphia 1885), pp. 66, 67 & 68, writing of Richard Stout and his wife, Penelope, quotes Smith's allusions to them in full, introducing his account as follows:
** * the following account is found in a 'History of New Jersey,' published in 1765:"
Having finished Smith's account, he gives a portion of the Stout history as it appears in Benedict's History of the Baptists, and a little erroneously, and forthwith proceeds to comment upon it in the following language:
"There is, beyond doubt, a good deal of romance and inaccuracy in both these accounts, though in their main features they are probably correct. The statement that they lived 'among other Dutch' at Middletown is clearly incorrect, as there were no Dutch among the early settlers there. The story of the intended Indian massacre, too, is undoubtedly the product of a fertile imagination, as it is well known that the Indians of this region were always friendly to the English settlers, and never gave them any trouble except an occasional drunken brawl, which the white men punished by placing the noble red man in the stocks or pillory, just as they did the same class of white offenders,-a fact which in itself shows that they had no fear of any Indian massacre. As to Benedict's statement, if it is true that she was born in 1602, and was married to Richard Stout when she was twenty-two, the time of their marriage must have been the year 1624, at which time he was forty years of age. They went to Middletown, with the first settlers, in 1664, at which time, (if this statement is correct), her age was sixty-two, and his eighty years. At that time, and for several succeeding years, Richard Stout was a prominent man in the public affairs of the Navesink settlements, which would hardly have been the case at such an age; and in 1669, when, (according to the above supposition), he waseighty-five years old, Rich- ard Stout, Jonathan Holmes, Edward Smith and James Bowne were chosen 'overseers' of Middletown, and Stout made his X mark to the 'Ingadgement' in lieu of signature,-which last mentioned fact makes it improb- able that he was, as stated, an Englishman 'of good family,' according to the usual English understanding of that term. Richard Stout was, however, one of the most respectable and respected men in his day in the Monmouth settlements."
"STOUT or STOUCE, RICHARD, one of the first settlers of Gd in 1643, and allotted plantation-lot No. 18 in 1646, as per town rec .; d. about 1688. He also bought Apl. 5, 1661, plantation-lot No. 26 of Edward Griffen. With a number of his neighbors he left Gd and settled at Middletown, Monmouth Co., N. J., of which place he was one of the patentees or original purchasers of the Indians, as per p. 73 of Vol. I, of Raum's N. J. There is a story, founded on tradition, on p. 76, etc., of said Vol., of the shipwreck of a Dutch ship on Sandy Hook; of the crew and passengers leaving a sick young Dutchman and his wife there while they went for relief; of the Indians tomahawking the man, mangling the wife and leaving her for dead; of her recovering

and crawling into a hollow log and subsisting for several days on berries, and then being discovered and taken prisoner and her life preserved by an old Indian, ransomed by the Dutch of N. Y., where she married Richard Stout, being at the time in her 22d year and he in his 40th. They settled at Middletown, where the old Indian often visited her, and on one occasion, by informing her of a plot to massacre the whites, put them on their guard and saved the settlement from destruction. This woman, whose maiden name was Penelope Van Prince, lived to the age of 110 years, her posterity numbering 502 at the time of her death. The compiler gives this tradition as he finds it, having little faith therein. Issue (per Rev. G. C. Schenck) :- John; Richard; Jonathan; Peter; James; Benjamin; David; Deliverance; Sarah; and Penelope, whose descendants are numerous in N. J. Made his mark to documents."
From Early Settlers of Kings Co .- Bergen-pp. 286, 287, Ed. 1881.
"In a small pamphlet published in 1790, a very interesting account is given of this family."
"Mrs. Stout was born in Amsterdam, about the year 1602. Her father's name was Vanprinces. She and her first husband (whose name is not known) sailed for New York (then New Amsterdam) about the year 1620. The vessel was stranded at Sandy Hook. The crew got ashore, and went toward New York, but the husband of Penelope being hurt in the wreck, could not travel with them, and they both tarried in the woods.
They had not been long left before the Indians came upon them and killed them as they thought, and stripped them of their garments. However, Penelope revived, although her skull was fractured and her left shoulder so injured that she was never able to use it like the other, besides she was so cut across the body that her bowels protruded, and she was obliged to keep her hand upon the wound.
In this situation she continued for seven days, taking shelter in a hollow tree, living on what she could pick off from the tree. On the seventh day she saw a deer pass with arrows sticking in it, and soon after appeared two Indians whom she was glad to see, hoping that they would put her out of her misery. Accord- ingly, one made towards her, to knock her in the head; but the other (who was an elderly man), prevented him, and throwing his watchcoat about her, took her to his wigwam and cured her of her wounds. Afterwards he took her to New York and presented her to her countrymen, expecting a present in return, no doubt. It was in New York that Richard Stout married her, in her twenty-second year. He was from England, of a good family, and in his fortieth year. They had several children, and Mrs. Stout lived to the age of one hundred and ten years, and saw her offspring multiplied to five hundred and two in about eighty-eight years."

p. 154. John Ogborne, 2, married, about 1697, Ann Kendall, born about 1677 and died, July 25, 1745, aged 68 years. Following the death of John Ogborne, and about 1715, Ann Kendall married, second, John, son of Richard and Abigail Stockton, born, in Flushing, about 1674, and died, in Springfield township, Burlington Co., Mch. 29, 1747. Ann Kendall, the wife of John Ogborne, 2, and John Stockton, was the daughter of Thomas Kendall, bricklayer, of Burlington Co., who married, first, Dec. 25, 1685, Mary, daughter of Anthony and Susanna Elton by whom he had Mary Kendall, who married Samuel Cole and the above mentioned Ann. Upon the death of his wife Mary Elton, Thomas Kendall married, second, 6, Imo., 1690, Ann Jennings, possibly widow of Peter Jennings, of Burlington Co., who had recently died. Thomas Kendall died 1709, leaving a will. Ann Kendall probably had no issue by her husband John Stockton. His will, dated Aug. 31, 1745, proved Apr. 4, 1747, gave his daughters- in-law, (i.e., stepdaughters), Sarah Woolston and Anna Lippincott each £2, and to the three children of his other stepdaughter, Hannah Butterworth, viz .: David, Joseph and Benjamin, Jr., £4, when 21. He further mentioned his sons, Daniel and David, whom he appointed executors, and his daughters Rebecca Lippincott, Rachel Briggs and Mary Wetherell. The son, David Stockton, died, Nov. 14, 1763, aged 55.0.26, hence born 1708 and a son of John Stockton by his wife Mary Leeds. (Baptist Meeting Yard, Pemberton, Burlington Co., N. J.).
p. 154. John Ogborne, 2, resided at Springfield Township, Burlington Co., N. J. In addition to Sarah and Anna he had likewise a daughter Ann. The following deed is substantiative of her existence: Jonathan Wright, of Burlington City, conveys to John Mathis Apr. 23, 174I. In the deed it is set forth that "Whereas John Ogbourne, late of said County deceased was lawfully seized in four hundred acres of land lying at a place called little Egg harbour and County aforesaid and the said John Ogbourne being seized as aforesaid died and the same descended to his three daughters Sarah, Ann and Anna as coheirs of him the said John Ogbourn and the said three daughters were married to the following persons vizt. Sarah was married to Michael Woolston, Ann was married to Benjamin Butterworth and Anna was married to Job Lippincott and whereas the said Michael Woolston and Sarah his wife, Benjamin Butterworth and Ann his wife and Job Lippincott and Anna his wife by their Indenture of Bargain and Sale under their hands and seals, dated 25th day of Sept. 1731, for the considera- tion therein mentioned did Grant Bargain and sell the aforesaid four hundred acres of land unto George Douglas of Chesterfield and county aforesaid," etc., etc. (Book G. of Deeds, p. 358, Trenton.)
It is thus absolutely established that John Ogborne, 2, had two daughters of like name, Ann and Anna, which in turn raises the query whether he may not have had two wives, giving

him an Ann by one wife and an Anna by the other wife. Or is it that she may have been originally called Hannah and time and usage changed it to Anna. In the Mott family this extraordinary duplication of names likewise occurs for Adam Mott, the first, alludes in his will to my oldest son Adam and my youngest son Adam, who were his children by different wives.
p. 154. Sarah Ogborne, 5, daughter of John Ogborne, 2, was born about 1699; died, Dec. 24, 1771, aged 72 years; buried in St. Andrew's Yard, Mount Holly; married, first, about 1720, Jacob Carman, of Springfield township, Burlington Co., who died intestate prior to Dec. 14, 1724, when his estate was inventoried at about £go. Administration granted, Jan. 29, 1725, to his widow; had an only son John Carman, who was sole executor of the will of his mother Sarah Woolston, dated Oct. 8, 1771, proved Jan. 6, 1772, and was mentioned in the will of his stepfather Michael Woolston. John Carman married Ann, daughter of Daniel and Hannah (Fisher) Stockton. Sarah Ogborne married, second, about 1725, Michael, son of John and Lettice (Newbold) Woolston, who was born about 1698, and who died, in Northampton town- ship, Burlington Co., Feb. 27, 1753, aged 55. In his will, Feb. 23, 1751; proved Mch. 5, 1753, he named his children, relatives, wife Sarah and stepson John Carman. Her will, (Sarah Wool- ston), Oct. 8, 1771; proved Jan. 6, 1772, named her two daughters Lettice Hinchman [wife of Isaac Hinchman] and Ann Briggs; her granddaughters Sarah Briggs, Sarah Hinchman and Sarah King, and her great-granddaughter Susanna King. The inventory of her estate amounted to £285,10,5. In addition to the children above mentioned the grave stones in St. Andrew's Yard, Mount Holly, tell of several more, who were apparently carried away in the winter and spring of 1753, by some epidemic: Job Woolston died, Jan. 27, 1753, aged 23 years, Joseph Woolston died, May 21, 1753, aged about 18 years, Joshua Woolston died, May 28, 1753, aged about 27 years, Barzillai Woolston died, Aug. 25, 1753, aged about 20 years.
