WHITTAN FAMILY.
According to the accounts we have, men were much more easily excited in politics the latter part of the last century, dur- ing the organization of the government, and party feeling was more acrimonious than it has been since. It was during one of the strongly contested elections, Jacob Hufty was a candidate for the office of Sheriff on the Republican side. A person on the opposite side of politics being at the polls at the time of voting, asked what Mr. Hufty done with his broad-axe, he being a ship carpenter. Whittan Cripps, who was within hearing, quickly said that Hufty had buried it under the walls of Quebec, where such a coward as you dare not show his head. After Whittan's death the property in Mannington was left to his son, and he, not having the management of his father, became intox- icated with politics, neglected his business, and it is said, became involved in debt, and that fine estate was put in market. John Denn that time followed his trade in Salem, he being a hatter. By industry and frugality he had accumulated a sufficient amount of money to warrant him in buying it and in a few years he had the property paid for. He was likewise one of the best meadow men that was ever in this county.
Nathaniel and his wife, Grace Cripps, came to America in 1678, and settled in Burlington county. By tradition he was the founder of Mount Holly. Nathaniel and Grace Cripps had six children-John, Benjamin, Samuel, Virginia, Theophla and Hannah Ann Cripps. John, the eldest son, married Mary Eves, of Haddonfield. Benjamin, the second son, married Mary Hough ; their children were Whittan, who in 1759 mar- ried Martha Huddy; John, their second son, died a minor ; Hannah married Samuel Mason, of Mannington, in 1756, son of Thomas Mason, of the same place. Whittan Cripps and his wife settled on the landed estate of his great-unele, James Whit- tan, in Lower Mannington, Salem county. He and his wife had two children-Benjamin and Mary Cripps. Benjamin married the daughter of Peter Carney, of Upper Penn's Neck, and Mary married Peter Andrews, a native of Egg Harbor.
WOODNUTT FAMILY.
Richard Woodnutt, the first one of the family of whom there is any record, came from England about 1690. It is supposed he first settled in Philadelphia, but in 1695 it appears he located at Salem. He was a bricklayer by occupation, and was a member of the Society of Friends, and a man of consid - crable means. He paid $75 towards erecting the first brick meeting house in West Jersey, which was built on the Nicholson lot on West Broadway, in Salem. Most probably he was the master brick-layer of the said building. He came into posses- sion of a large tract of land in Mannington, being part of John Pledger's allotment, by marriage or purchase, I think in 1696. He married Mary Pledger, some antiquarians think, but there is no record of his having done so; the names of his children, however, seem to indicate it. Richard Woodnutt and his wife Mary had four children. Joseph, the eldest son, was born 5th of 7th month, 1697; Richard was born 22d of 12th month; 1700; Grace in 1703, and Sarah in 1708. Joseph in 1722 married Rachel Craven, and they commenced life on his patri- monial estate in Mannington, near the town of Salem. Most of said estate is owned at the present time by Richard Wood- nutt, of Salem, he being the sixth generation from the first emigrant of that name. The old mansion house was burned down upward of fifty years ago, while in tenure of James Elliott. Joseph and his wife Rachel had five children-Thomas was born in 1724, Mary in 1727, Hannah in 1730, Richard in 1732, and Joseph in 1735. Thomas died a young man, unmarried. Mary married Elisha, son of Elisha and Abigail Davis Bassett, of Pilesgrove. Elisha and his wife Mary had six children- their eldest son, Joseph Bassett, died in infancy ; Rachel, their eldest daughter, died a young woman, unmarried ; Sarah Bas- sett was born 10th of 8th month, 1759. She subsequently married Joseph Petitt in 1779, and her children were Wood- nutt, Rachel, David, Jonathan, Thomas and Mary. Hannah, daughter of Elisha and Mary Bassett, born in 1762, married John Roberts, near Haddonfield, and had two children-Benja-

min and David Roberts. Joseph Bassett, 2d, born 26th of 6th montlı, 1755, married Mary, the daughter of David and Re- becca Allen. By that union there were nine children-Elisha, Joseph, David, Hannah, Rebecca, Samuel, Benjamin, William and Mary. Joseph and his wife lived above the age that is alloted to man, he being more than four-score at the time of his death. He was one of the most successful agriculturalists that Salem county ever produced. David Bassett, his brother, died a young man, unmarried.
Hannah, the youngest danghter of Joseph and Rachel Wood- nutt, born in 1729 married Samuel Hedge, 5th. They had four children-Rebecca born in 1751; Mary born in 1753 (she died a young woman unmarried in 1775) ; Samuel, born in 1775, and Josephi in 1758. Neither of the sons married, and both died in 1797, in the old Hedge house on Broadway street, in the town of Salem. Their great landed estate fell to their sister Rebecca, who was at that time the wife of Thomas Thompson, the son of Thomas Thompson, and grandson of Andrew Thompson, the emigrant, of Elsinborough. The children of Thomas and his wife Rebecca were noticed in the genealogy of the Hedge and Fenwick families.
Richard Woodnutt, the son of Joseph, married Elizabeth, daughter of William Hall, Jr., of Mannington. Richard died when he was about twenty-eight years of age, leaving one dangh- ter-Elizabeth, who married William Goodwin, Jr., of Elsin- borough, the youngest son of William and Mary Morris Good- win. By that union there were six daughters-Prudence, Mary, Rachel, Sarah, Elizabeth and Abigail. Their genealogy has been traced with the Goodwin family. Elizabeth's second hus- band was Thomas Clement. Joseph, the youngest child of Jo- seph and Rachel Woodnutt, was born in 1735. I think he died, leaving no issue. The second husband of Rachel Woodnutt, the widow of Joseph, was Daniel Garrison. Grace and Sarah, daughters of Richard and Sarah Woodnutt, I think died unmar- ried.
Woodnutt, the eldest son of Joseph and Sarah B. Pettit, mar- ried Sarah Jess; they had ten children-Rachel, Hannah, David, Joseph, Samuel, Samuel C., Ann, James, Ruth and Sarah. Rachel married William G. Beesley, who has been deceased more than thirty years, leaving no issue. Hannah married David Bassett; she is deceased, and left no issue. David Pettit's wife is Martha B. Engle ; their children are . Mary, Woodnutt, William, Franklin, Hannah and David. Joseph Pettit, son of Woodnutt, married Caroline, daughter of

Aaron Pancoast. They have four sons-George, Charles Eliu and Joseph. Samuel Pettit died young ; Samuel C. died a young man ; Anna married Eliu Roberts, of Philadelphia, and had three children-Woodnutt, Charles and Hannah Rob- erts. James Pettit married Elizabeth W. Ridgway. Their children are Clarkson, Ruth and Dillwyn. Ruth died a young woman. Sarah, the youngest child of Woodnutt and Sarah Pettit, married Edward P., son of David and Hannah Cooper, of Woodbury. They have three sons-David, Courtlandt and William. Rachel, the daughter of Joseph and Sarah Pettit, married Benjamin Hewitt; she died young, and I think she left no issue. David Pettit, son of Joseph and Sarah, died a young man, unmarried. Jonathan Pettit married Ann, daugh- ter of George Woolly, of Philadelphia; her children were Charles, Charlotte, Huldah, Lewis, Sarah Ann and Jonathan. Thomas, the youngest son of Joseph and Sarah Pettit, died young. Mary Pettit, their youngest daughter, married Nehe- miah Hogbin, and had one son, Charles Hogbin, now deceased. The mother of Joseph Pettit, father of Woodnutt, was Mary Shourds. Woodnutt's wife's (Sarah Jess) grandmother was Ruth Silvers; therefore Woodnutt and his wife were both relatives of my family.
James Mason Woodnutt married Margaret Carpenter in 1776. They had ten children-Sarah, Hannah, Thomas, Jonathan, Preston, Elizabeth, William, Margaret, Mary and Martha. Sa- rah, the eldest child, born 1777, died unmarried ; Hannah, born in 1780, married Clement Acton, Sr., of Salem, being his sec- ond wife. They had two children-Clement and Margaret Acton. Clement went to Cincinnati many years ago and en- gaged in the mercantile business, at the old stand of his uncle, William Woodnutt. He married Fanny Biddle, and they have two children-Helen and John Acton. Margaret, danghter of Clement and Hannah W. Acton, married Dr. John Griscom, of Philadelphia, son of William and Ann Griscom. They have three children-Hannah, John and William W. Thomas Wood- nutt was born in 1782, and died single. Jonathan, the second son of James and Margaret Woodnutt, born 12th of 10th month, 1784, married Mary, the daughter of William and Elizabeth Goodwin. They had four children-Richard, William, Thomas and Mary Woodnutt. Richard, their eldest son, married Lydia, the daughter of Clement and Sarah Hall, late of Elsinborough. They have six children-Mary, Emily H., Sarah II., Elizabeth (+., Mary and Richard H. Woodnutt.
William Goodwin Woodnutt, Jonathan's second son, married

Elizabeth, daughter of Joseph and Lydia Bassett. They have seven children-Emily C., Joseph B., Jonathan, Thomas, Anne E., Howard C. and William Woodnutt. Thomas, the youngest son of Jonathan and Mary Woodnutt, removed to Cincinnati, Ohio, and went into the mercantile business with his cousin, Clement Acton. He married Hannah Morgan, a resident of Richmond, Indiana, where he resides at the present time. They have three children-Abbie, William, and Clement A. Wood- nutt.
Mary, the daughter of Jonathan and Mary Woodnutt, mar- ried Edward, the son of Isaac and Lucy Ann Acton. They had four children-Walter W., Isaac Oakford, Elizabeth, and Jon- athan Acton. Jonathan Woodnutt's second wife was Sarah, the widow of Henry Dennis, (her maiden name was Goodwin, the sister of his first wife). They lived together in much unity to an advanced age, and in their death the poor and afflicted lost kind and sympathizing friends.
Preston, son of James M. and Margaret Woodnutt, was born 24th of 1st month, 1787. His wife was Rachel, the daughter of William and Elizabeth Goodwin, and a sister to his brother Jonathan's wife. Prescott and his wife Rachel died about mid- dle age, leaving five children-James, Elizabeth, Hannah Ann, Edward and Preston. Their eldest son, James, married Eliza- beth, the daughter of John and Margaret Denn, who were resi- dents of Mannington. John and his wife had five children- Charles, Henry, Franklin, Preston and Margaretta.
Charles Woodnutt, the son of James, married Mary Garret- son. They have three children-Clifford, James and Edward. Henry, the second son of James Woodnutt, married Anna Frost. They have five children-Hannah, Thomas, Elizabeth, Henry and Clifford. Franklin Woodnutt, the third son of James, married Eveline Ware ; they have one daughter, Eliza- beth. Preston and Margaret remain single. Elizabeth G. Woodnutt, daughter of Preston and Rachel, married Amsley, the son of Benjamin Newlin, of Chester county, Pennsylvania. They had two children-Francis and Benjamin. Hannah A. Woodnutt, daughter of Preston and Rachel, married Nathan Baker; there were two children-Mary E. and Henry Preston Baker. I think Preston's two youngest sons, Edward and Preston Woodnutt, remain single.
Elizabeth, the daughter of James M. and Margaret, married Morris, the son of Clement and Rebecca Hall, formerly of Elsinborough. They had five children-Margaretta, James, Franklin, Hannah and Rebecca. Margaretta married John W.

WOODNUTT FAMILY.
Righter, and their children were Elizabeth, James, William and Charles. William, the son of James and Margaret Woodnutt, was born in 1792. In early life he sold his patrimonial estate in Mannington, and removed from his native county to Cincin- nati, Ohio, where he embarked into the mercantile business which he pursued successfully, accumulating an ample fortune. Some years before his death he sold out his interest in that city to his two nephews, Clement Acton, Jr. and Thomas Woodnutt, and ended his days in Philadelphia, leaving a large estate to be divided among his relatives. I think he never married.
Margaret, the daughter of James M. and Margaret Wood- nutt, born in 1794, married William J., son of Isaiah Shinn, of Pilesgrove. William and his wife had six children-Eme- line, Joseph, Samuel, Elizabeth, Sarah and Martha. The last mentioned child married Dr. Isaiah Clawson. Sarah Shinn married Dr. Thomas Reed. Mary Woodnutt, the daughter of James M. and Margaret, born in 1767, married Benjamin Newlin, of Chester county, Pennsylvania. They had one daughter, Martha, who married Thomas Travilla ; they had one daughter-Martha. Martha Woodnutt, the daughter of James M. and Margaret, born in 1799, married Joshua Reeves, the son of Biddle Reeves, of Gloucester; she was his second wife. They had two children-Margaret and William Reeves. The latter married Ruth, the daughter of James J. Pettit ; their children are James P., Frank and Martha Pettit Reeves.
Henry, the second son of Richard and Ann Wamsley Wood- nntt, born 4th of 12th month, 1736, married Eve Wood ; they had three children-Ann, Margaret and Joseph Woodnutt. Ann Woodnutt, Henry's oldest daughter, married John Wil- liams; by that union there were six children-John, Henry, Margaret, Joseph, Thomas and Sarah Williams. The first wife of John Williams, Jr., was Hester Harris; his second, Eliza- beth Lambson ; his third, Hannah Bradway. There were fourteen children-John, Rebecca, Elizabeth, David, Amanda, Anne Maria, Sarah, Margaret, Hester, Ann, William, Charles, Sarah Ann and Moses Williams. John by occupation was a shoe maker ; I believe he followed it during his life in the city of Salem, and he had an excellent reputation for integrity and uprightness in all his transactions with his fellow men. Henry, the second son of John and Ann W. Williams, was a tailor. His wife was Rachel IIntchinson; their children were Wood- nutt, Maria, Charles and Henry Williams. Margaret Williams, the eldest daughter of John and Woodnutt Williams, has lived a life of great usefulness as a faithful and tender nurse; she

remains single. Joseph, the third son of John Williams, mar- ried Ann Welsh; they had four children-Sarah, Emeline, Margaret and Thomas Williams. Thomas Williams married and had one child-Joseph Williams. Sarah Williams, their youngest daughter, it appears died single.
Margaret, the second daughter of Henry and Eve Woodnutt, married Isaac Elwell ; they had two children-John and Mary Ann Elwell. The latter subsequently married a man by the name of Dolbow. The numerous branches of the Woodnntt family at the present day, as far as I have the means of judging endeavored to live so as to bring no reproach upon their ances- tors, and it should be the duty of the present generation to adopt the many good, benevolent and christian acts they did in their time, so that true civilization and christianity may advance in this and succeeding generations higher than it has ever yet obtained.
WOODRUFF FAMILY.
The Woodruffs are an ancient family in Worcestershire, Eng- land. Thomas Woodruff, son of John Woodruff, was born, in Worcestershire, abont 1630. In early life he became a mem- ber of the Society of Friends, and married Edith Wyatt, daugh- ter of Joseph Wyatt, who located on a large tract of land, in the township of Mannington, at the first settlement of the province. Thomas Woodruff and wife, soon after their marriage, removed to London, where they had several children born, their names were Thomas, Edith, John and Isaac Woodruff. In the year 1678, Thomas and his wife Edith Woodruff, and their aforesaid children, together with one man-servant, named Allen Hanway and his sister, children of Leonard Hanway, of Weymouth, set sail for America. They had a daughter born on the sea, named Mary Woodruff ; the name of the ship was Surrey, Stephen Nichols was the captain. They arrived at Salem in 4th month, 1679, at which place it is most probable, Thomas, and his wife Edith Wood- ruff ended their days. Their descendants are found in most of the States of the Union. The family of Woodruffs is numerous in the county of Cumberland at this time; this circumstance will jus- tify the belief that some of Thomas Woodruff's sons located in the Cohansey precinct, and became citizens of that part of Fen- wick's Colony. I called a short time since to see the venerable Daniel M. Woodruff, (a lineal descendant of Thomas Woodruff,) at his home in Bridgeton ; although his sight was nearly gone, on account of his great age, being nearly ninety, in other re- spects he retains his physical and mental faculties remarkably. Ile entered into conversation in a lively and interesting manner, inquiring after those with whom he was formerly acquainted, and particularly those, of whom he formerly bought cattle, when he followed the butchering business in the city of Bridge- ton. He mentioned John Denn, William Carpenter, Wistars and Bassetts ; he supposed they were all deceased. I answered him in the affirmative. He then said, " They were all honest " men." Daniel at one time was Sheriff of Cumberland county, also Clerk of the county and Judge of the Court of Common

Pleas, and for many years the principal auctioneer of Bridgeton and the surrounding county. Mr. Woodruff, although not the oldest person, is now the oldest living resident of Bridgeton.
YORKE FAMILY.
The Yorke's sprung from an ancient English family. Thomas Yorke was high Sheriff of England three different times in the reign of Henry the VIII. Simon Yorke was born at Calme, in Wiltshire, England, and owned a large landed estate in that connty. He left Wiltshire soon after the death of Charles 1, with the intention of leaving his native lind on account of the prominent part he had taken on the side of that unfortunate monarch. It seems he changed his intention and settled at Dover, in the county of Kent, and died there 2d of 3d month 1682, aged seventy-six years, and was buried in the Church of St. James, at Dover. He had five sons and one daughter. One of his sons was the father of Simon Yorke, who lived at Ething, in Derbyshire, and died 28th of 7th month, 1767, leaving issue, the late Philip Yorke, a man not unknown to the literary world; he died 19th of 2d month, 1804, aged sixty-one years. He mar ried Elizabeth, sister to Lord Brownlong, in 7th month, 1770 and had issue, Simon Yorke, formerly a member of Parliament for Grantham. Philip the second son of Simon and Elizabeth Yorke, born in Wiltshire in 1651, left his native place and set- tled in the county of Kent, and there married Elizabeth Gib- bon, a young woman of ancient family, daughter and heiress of R. Gibbon, of Dover. Lord Chancellor Hardwick always quar- tered the Gibbon arms, as may be seen in the middle of Temple Hall.
Thomas Yorke arrived from England and settled in Salem as early as 1685. In 1687 Richard Tindell received an order from James Nevell to resurvey a tract of land containing 500 acres, lying on Nicomer's Run, a part of Fenwick's Grove, in Man- nington, known at that time as White's Vineyard. It was owned by Thomas Yorke and Mary White, the faithful house- keeper of John Fenwick. (He made an honorable mention of her in his will, and devised to her a large landed estate). Thomas Yorke resided in the town of Salem in 1690. I presume he died without issne. The Yorke family, it seems, had forgotten him.
THOMAS JONES YORKE. Born 1801.

YORKE FAMILY.
Thomas Yorke, the ancestor of the present Yorke family in the United States, came from Yorkshire, England, about 1728. He left in England a brother, two sisters, and his uncle, Joseph Yorke, who was Lord Mayor of Dover, and ambassador to Hagne in the reign of George II. John Potts, founder of Pottstown, Pa., married Ruth Savage. John and his wife Ruth had three daughters-Elizabeth, Mary and Martha Potts. Eliz- abeth, the eldest daughter, married Joseph Walker, and Mary Potts, their second daughter married Deniah Cleaver. Thomas Yorke, soon after he arrived in this country, went into partner- ship with John Potts in the iron business. In 1736 he married Martha Potts, the youngest daughter of his partner. They had two sons-Edward, the eldest, born 20th of 9th month, 1738, died 12th of 4th month, 1781; and Stephen, born about 1740.

He joined the Royalists at the breaking out of the Revolutionary war, and at its close went to England. He was Mayor of Hull, England, for several years. He died with- out issne. Thomas Yorke's third wife was Mary Robeson, a niece of his second wife, who was a cousin to his first wife, Martha Potts. Thomas and Mary Yorke had four children- Robeson, Samuel, Martha and Margaret Yorke. Thomas Yorke was Justice of the Peace in Pottstown in 1745; in 1747 he was Lieutenant-Colonel in the French and Indian wars, and in 1757 and 1758 he represented Berks county, Pennsylvania, in the Provincial Assembly. A short time afterwards he removed to Philadelphia, and was appointed Judge of the Courts by the crown of England.

His wife was Eleanor Coxe, of Manayunk, Pennsylvania. Their issue was Andrew, Eleanor, Martha, Lewis and Thomas Yorke. At the commencement of the Revolutionary war, Andrew took an active part in favor of the Colonies, and was an aid to General Newcomb in the Revolutionary Army. Andrew died at Salem, New Jersey, in 1794, and was buried at St. John's Episcopal church-yard in that city. His son, Andrew Yorke, Jr., died without issue. Eleanor, the daughter of Andrew and Eleanor C. Yorke, mar- ried John, the son of William and Sarah Thompson Hancock, of Hancock's Bridge.
