dletown, and from there extending to Raritan Bay. His father's Westfield estate came to him in 1678, and 167 acres of it, with the homestead site, is still owned in the family, this ownership now covering a period of 237 years. He died January 4, 1684. From the late James G. Crawford's Bowne papers is taken the following :
Words of advice spoken by Capt. John Bowne to his children as he lay on his death bed, Janu- ary 3, 1684: "There is no way in the world for a man to obtain felicity in this world, or in the world to come, but to take heed to the ways of the Lord, and to put his trust in Him, who deals faithfully and truly with all men, for He knocks at the doors of your heart and calls you to come and buy, without money and without price. My , desire is that in all actions of Meum et tuum you deal not deceitfully, but plain hearted with all men, and remember that your dying father left it with you for your instruction that when trust is with your honor, to preserve it. And in all contracts and bargains that you make, violate not your promise, and you will have praise. Let your mother be your counsellor in all matters of difference, and go not to lawyers, but ask her counsel first. If at any time you have an advan- tage of a poor man at law, O! pursue it not, but rather forgive him if he hath done you wrong. and if you do so you will help the law of God and of His people. Give not away to youthful jolli- ties and sports, but improve your leisure time in the service of God. Let no good man be dealt churlishly by you, but entertain when they come to your house. But if a vicious, wicked man come, give him meat and drink to refresh him, and let him pass by your door. It has been many times in my thoughts that for a man to marry a wife and have children and never take care to instruct them, but leave them worse than the beasts of the field, so that as a man ask con- cerning the things of God, they know not what it means. O! this is a very sad thing, but if we can season our hearts so as to desire the Lord to assist us, He will help us, and not fly from us."
It was Captain John Bowne who built the castern part of the old Manor house, a mansion built in the most substantial manner. His grave is in the old burying

ground at Middletown, and is marked by the oldest stone in the yard. From the Bowne papers owned by the late James G. Crawford is taken the following :
After Capt. John Bowne's death, to divide his estate as follows,-First-Lydia (Holmes) Bowne is to have all the buildings of the de- ceased John Bowne, with all improved lands, with one-third of the whole plantation, called Westfield, during her natural life, and then the said third with all buildings and improvements whatsoever, shall return to Obadiah Bowne, his heirs and assigns forever, and also the said Lydia Bowne is to have one-third part of the movables, amounting unto the sum of 114 pounds, to be at her sole disposal. *

John Bowne and his wife, Lydia Bowne, died in the old part of the home on the Westfield prop- erty and Obadiah Bowne resided and died there. On April 15, 1697, John Bowne (2), son of Capt. John Bowne (1), conveyed to his brother, Oba- diah Bowne, of Monmouth County, New Jersey, all his rights, titles, etc. in 769 acres of land at Westfield, in Middletown Township, formerly belonging to their father, Capt. John Bowne (1), in 1678 .*

Captain John Bowne married (first) Lydia, daughter of Rev. Obadiah and Catherine (Hyde) Holmes. Rev. Oba- diah Holmes was a faithful leader of the Baptists of Rhode Island, who, rather than submit to an unjust fine, was pub- licly whipped by the authorities in 1653. He died in Newport, Rhode Island, Octo- ber 15, 1682. As Captain John Bowne's widow, Lydia Bowne is of frequent men- tion in the old road records from 1684 until 1693, and is the party to whom the Indians deeded certain lands May 10,
1690, also receiving 500 acres in Mon- mouth county in 1688. Lydia Bowne's antique snuff-box and many other things are in possession of the remaining mem- ber of the family.

(By second wife) : Sarah, November 27, 1670, at Gravesend, mar- ried Richard Saltar; Catherine, born at Middletown, New Jersey, married Wil- liam, son of Richard Hartshorne.
Andrew Bowne. a brother of Captain John (1) Bowne, was a member of the council of East New Jersey in 1692 ; presi- dent of the court of sessions in 1696; sat in a council held by the General Assem- bly at Perth Amboy in 1699, as deputy governor, an office he held from. 1682 until 1703 ; was commissioned in 1704, by Gov- ernor Basse, to be third judge and assist- ant to the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Judicature for the province of East Jersey, and continued in that office until 1706, by Lord Cornbury ; was com- missioned Governor and Commander-in- Chief with power to appoint a deputy governor, by the committee of proprietors of East Jersey in America, residing in or about London, and by the rest of the pro- prietors of the said provinces.

ENCYCLOPEDIA OF BIOGRAPHY
Captain John and Lydia (Holmes) Bowne, was born July 18, 1666, at Gravesend. Long Island, and died at the homestead at Crawford's Corner (called Westfield), Monmouth county, New Jersey, April 19, 1726. He was a man of education, of great ability and independent spirit, and highly respected. He served in 1696-97 as assessor, and later on a committee to lay out roads. In 1703-04 he was a mem- ber of the first and second provincial assemblies, and in 1707 represented the eastern district in the assembly. His name appears in many land transactions, and he was one of the important men of his day.
He inherited that part of his father's estate upon which stood the old home- stead, built by his father, Captain John Bowne, and in 1701 he built the entire western part, with a fine English hall and stairway, with a massive arch, supported on each side by triple carved columns, which were all kept intact. The immense parlor, with beautiful arches and an enor- mous double chimney, which ran from the cellar and took in almost the entire west- ern end of the house, had a large open fireplace, surrounded by Biblical tiles, which was walled up. The wide carved wood frieze was removed, also the large parlor door, upon which was painted Biblical scenes and upon the upper panel the Bowne crest. This western part of the Manor house, built by Obadiah Bowne, was like the eastern part, built in a most substantial manner, the walls, which were very thick, being filled in with clay. The floor beams were of hewn logs, some of them sixteen inches square, while the laths were of the toughest swamp oak, worked to proper dimensions with the axe, and the shingles were scal- loped. The nails used were made by a blacksmith from wrought iron, some of them are in possession of the family. This Manor house was 75 feet by 45 feet.
Obadiah Bowne married (first) his cousin, Elizabeth, daughter of Governor Andrew Bowne, who bore him three chil- dren : John, mentioned below; Ann, born March 22, 1701, married William Chan- ning, a New York merchant ; Lydia, Feb- ruary II, 1703, married John Pintard. Their grandfather, Governor Andrew Bowne, of Middletown, in his last will, gave all his plantation, called Matawan, unto these children of his daughter, Eliz- abeth. Obadialı Bowne married (second) Elizabeth Longfield, daughter of Cor- nelius and Mary Longfield, and had four children : Mary, born May 23, 1712, died February 22, 1743, married Dr. Richard Stillwell, son of Richard Stillwell and Deborah Bowne ; Cornelius, born October 15. 1713. had wife Sarah: Obadiah (2), born April 16, 1717, lived in Philadelphia in 1743, was a mariner, and married, in 17-19, Anna, daughter of Colonel John Reid and Mary Sands; Thomas, born June 9. 1721, lived in New York, was a mariner, and married, in 1748, Helen, daughter of Colonel John and Mary (Sands) Reid. August 20, 1747, Obadiah (2), Cornelius and Thomas Bowne (mari- ners) conveyed to John Bowne (3), their elder brother, their share in the land, con- taining 632 acres, and the Manor house, formerly the dwelling place of their father. Obadiah Bowne, "which now is and has been for years the dwelling place of the said John Bowne (3d)." in ex- change for 513 acres at Matawan, which was left John Bowne (3d) and his two sisters by their father, Obadiah Bowne. John Bowne (3d) also received land at Chingaroras (Keyport) from his three brothers-Cornelius, Obadiah (2) and Thomas, which had been conveyed to them by their father, Obadiah Bowne. In 1730 James Paul of Scotland and Middle- town, made his will and left all he had to the children of Obadiah Bowne and his second wife, Elizabeth Longfield, "in con-

sideration of manifold favors and kind- ness received from Obadiah Bowne in his life time, as my diet and entertainment for several years with other provisions for me made by him, both in my sickness and health." (From Bowne-Crawford papers ).
(IV) Captain John (3) Bowne, eldest child of Obadiah and Elizabeth (Bowne) Bowne, was born May 29, 1700, and died in the latter part of the year 1774. He in- herited the homestead and other lands, was judge of Monmouth county in 1741- 42, an educated, honored gentleman, spending his life in the management of his valuable estate. He married Anny Lippitt, born November 29, 1702, daugh- ter of Moses and Sarah (Throckmorton) Lippitt, of Middletown. Children : Lydia, born October 25, 1732; Andrew, May 26, 1734; Catherine, mentioned below. Much of the Sheffield silver of John Bowne (3d) is still in possession of the remaining member of the family.
(V) Catherine Crawford, daughter of Captain John (3) and Anny (Lippitt) Bowne, was born March 12, 1736, and on December 27, 1756, married William Crawford, bringing to her husband the Bowne estate and Manor house, so long in her family, both residing there until their death. The famous house which has been known as both "Manor house" and "Crawford Hall" was the family residence until destroyed by fire, June 17, 1895. The destruction of all wooden parts of the , famous structure was complete, the large double chimney, the four old-fashioned fireplaces, the arches and the cellar vaults alone remaining to mark the site of this long-time home of two of Monmouth's noted families, the Bownes and Craw- fords.

This is a variation of the old Dutch name which appears in earliest New York records as Cowenhoven, Couwenhoven,
Kouwenhoven and Van Couwenhoven. The form Kouwenhoven is retained by that branch of the family which remained on Long Island, while most of the de- scendants who settled in New Jersey have taken the form Conover.

(I) Wolfert Gerretson Van Kowen- hoven, the progenitor of the Conover fam- ily in this country, came from Amers- foort, province of Utrecht, Holland, in the ship "Eendracht," and landed March 21, 1630, accompanied by his family. His birthplace, Amersfoort, was an ancient city, formerly surrounded with a wall, with twenty towers, broken down in 1829. He was employed in 1630 as superintend- ent of farms by the Patroon Van Rensse- laer, at Rensselaerwyck, now Albany ; subsequent to this he cultivated a farm on Manhattan Island, and later located on Long Island. In June, 1637, in asso- ciation with Andrus Hudde, they pur- chased the westermost part of three flats in Flatlands and Flatbush, and a patent was issued to them by Director Van Twil- ler, June 16 of that year. In 1639 he pur- chased the interest of Hudde in these lands, the deed for a house, barn, barrack and garden, dated August 2. He took a deed dated September 16, 1641, from Hudde, of lands in the same neighbor- hood, including sixty-eight morgens of plainland and fifty-five and one-half acres of woodland. Their settlement was first named New Amersfoort. in honor of the city of Wolfert's nativity, and afterwards Flatlands. He probably removed to New Amsterdam some years before his death, as he appears as a great burgher there in 1657, and died in June, 1660. He was

(The Schenck Line).
This name has been traced for several centuries in Holland before its arrival in America, and has been conspicuous in this country through many generations for the probity and intellectual and execu- tive ability of those who bear it. The first of whom knowledge is now possessed was Colve de Witte, Baron van Touten- burg, who was killed at the battle of Clo- dius, between the Netherlands and the Danes in 878. Later Hermanus Schenck was Baron van Toutenburg. A descend- ant of his, William Schenck, was killed at the first tournament held in Germany at Magdeburg in 939. He was followed by Hermanus (2), whose descendant, Wil- liam, took part in the seventh German tournament at Holle in 1042. Reynier, Baron van Toutenburg, had three sons : Theodorus, Christianus and Albertus. The eldest was the next baron and his de- scendants continued for twenty genera- tions, when the line died out through the death of an only son in childhood. Chris- tianus, the second son, was attached to Count Julich, of the Castle of Nydeggen, being his cup bearer, a position of con- fidence and authority in the household of the count. He was appointed a justice, to settle a dispute, and had a coat-of- arms. His son, Wilhelmus Schenck van Nydeggen, appears in the records in 1275

and 1287. He sold his estate in Geyen, April 1, 1287. His wife died in 1271, and in her memory he gave a revenue to the Convent of Graevendael, near Goch, in whose cloister she was buried. Of their seven children, four were living in 1301.
(I) Heinrich Schenck van Nydeck, the first from whom a continuous line can be traced, is mentioned in 1346 as a grand- son of Wilhelmus Schenck, but the name of his father is unknown. In 1359 he was assessed four men and horses, fully equipped and armed, in fulfilment of a treaty made by the Netherlands authori- ties. He was Lord of Afferden, a village in Geldern, and also Feoffer of Wachten- donk. He sold the Court of Munster, July 12, 1389, later called Munster Mannshof, in the county of Geldern.
He married Aleid Van Rayde, who in- herited the castle of Walbeck, which thus came into possession of the Schenck fam- ily. In consideration of one-half the revenues of this estate, in 1581, Wilhelm van Julich, Duke of Geldern. assumed the protection of the village and parish. Hein- rich Schenck had sons: Wynand and Heinrich; and a daughter, Lizbeth, who became a nun at Graevendael. His estate was divided, December 31, 1403.
(II) Heinrich (2) Schenck van Ny- deck, junior son of Heinrich (1) and Aleid Schenck van Nydeck, received the Court of Ten Broke, in Kampen, and an estate at Ottersum, beside some revenues, and became co-heir, with his brother, to some other properties. The brother gave him his share of Walbeck, and having no heirs, the entire estate and title fell ulti- mately to the junior son, Heinrich, who was bailiff of Geldern, and died Decem- ber 8, 1452.
He married Alheid van Goen van Kal- denbrock, daughter of Allerd van Kalden- brock and Anna Montfoort, his wife. They had three children : Diedrick, Johann and Alheit.
(III) Diedrick Schenck van Nydeck, elder son of Heinrick (2) Schenck van Nydeck, inherited the paternal estates, to which he added largely. Like his prede- cessors he was a benefactor of the Convent of Graevendael, to which he gave an estate, June 1, 1443. He died 1487. Of his eleven children, two were monks and three were nuns.
(IV) Derick Schenck van Nydeck. fourth son of Diedrick Schenck van Ny- deck, received some property by inher- itance, and in 1515 assumed the title and ownership of the estate through the death of his elder brothers, and was Lord of Afferden and Blydenbeck.
He married Alheit Custers, of Arssen. He had previously contracted two mor- ganic marriages, and for seventy years his estate was in litigation. The civil courts decided in favor of his children. but the Pope decided against them. and the matter was finally carried before the Emperor. Charles V., who ordered the decree of the Pope sustained. October 21. 1549. As continental Europe was at this time in a state of almost constant war, the estate suffered heavily. Derick Schenck had children: Otto, Derick, Peter, Heinrich, Johann. Winand, Adel- heid, Maria and Margaretha.
(V) Derick (2) Schenck van Nydeck, second son of Derick (1) and Alheit (Custers) Schenck van Nydeck, was born about 1485, resided at Goch, and was Lord of Afferden and Blydenbeck.
He married Maria van Galen, and but one child is recorded.
(VI) Diedrick (2) Schenck van Ny- deck, son of Derick (2) and Maria (van Galen) Schenck van Nydeck, born about 1507, was Lord of Afferden and Blyden- deck, and resided at Goch.
He married Anna Van Berlaer. Chil- dren : Martin, Peter, Johann, Maria Mar- garetha and Maria Magdalina.
(VII) Peter Schenck van Nydeck, sec-

ond son of Diedrick (2) and Anna (Van Berlaer) Schenck van Nydeck, was born in 1547, at Goch, and distinguished him- self in the wars which raged almost con- tinuously in the Netherlands, becoming a general of the troops which defended his native country.
He married, at Doesburg, May 17, 1580, Johanna Van Scherpenzeel. They had children : Wilhelmina and Martin.
(VIII) Martin Schenck, only son of Peter and Johanna Schenck van Nydeck, was born August 7, 1584, at Doesburg. and started for America with three of his children, dying on the voyage. The constant wars in the Netherlands had made the position of the family uncomfort- able, and its members came to the New World to improve their prospects. They are supposed to have arrived in the ship "de Valckener," in June, 1650. The elder son, Roelof, settled in Flatlands, Long Island, as did also the junior son. Jan. The daughter, Anetje, married Adrian Reyersz, of Flatlands.
