Having given a personal sketch of former pastors, it seems fitting that I should do the same for myself. My great-grandfather, John Kugler, came to America from Germany in 1753, being a lad of about 13 years of age. He died at the age of 73 years. My grandfather, also John, lived, when I knew him, in my boyhood, near
e
D

THE MODERN PERIOD-1820-1900
Barbertown. He died at the age of 71 years. My father was Joseph Kugler, born in 1804, and died in 1864. My mother was Sarah M. Backer, of the Reformed Church of Lebanon. I was born at Lebanon, N. J., March 5th, 1832, and from the age of 5 years, lived on a farm at Frenchtown until I entered the ministry. I united with the Presbyterian Church of that place October, 1850, being the first person received into that Church on examination. My parents were charter members of the same and my father was its first elder. During my preparation for College I taught school, public, or classical, at different times, entering Princeton College Sophomore Class in 1854, and graduating in 1857. Leaving College I entered the Seminary at Princeton the same year and graduated in 1860.
The first church of which I was pastor was that of Strasburg, Lancaster County, Pa. I took charge of this Church the first Sabbath, May 5th, after leaving the Seminary. I was ordained and installed by the Presby- tery of Donegal (now Westminster) June 12th, 1860, and remained until the fall of 1865. Then became pas- tor of the Musconetcong Valley Presbyterian Church, at that time in the Presbytery of Raritan, N. J., transferred to Newton Presbytery in 1870. I remained until 1883. Then settled in Hoboken, which I left March 30th, 1890. Was called to Amwell First, settled April Ist, was installed May 27th. Pastoral relation dissolved October 17th, to take effect November 11th, 1900.
I was chosen three times as Commissioner to the Gen- eral Assembly, viz .: To represent the Presbytery of Donegal to the Assembly at Pittsburg, 1865; to represent
326
AMWELL FIRST CHURCH
the Presbytery of Newton at the Assembly at Saratoga, N. Y., 1879, and the Presbytery of Jersey City at Omaha in 1887.
I was united in marriage July 3rd, 1860, with Sarah Sherrerd, daughter of William and Jane M. Green, of Easton, Pa. Mrs. Kugler bore me a daughter and son. Her ancestry is the same as that of her aunt, Mrs. Clark (p. 188). Through her father it leads from John Green, back to his people in Trenton. I fondly remember her as always a faithful and affection- ate wife. My second wife was Ann Elizabeth, daugh- ter of the late Senator Peter Cramer and Sarah Skin- ner, his wife, of Warren County. Our marriage took place June 18th, 1873, in the Valley Church, of which she was a member, and I was pastor.
It is to my great happiness that she is spared to me, and my sincerest desire that she may ever be. With this personal sketch the story of this Old Mother Church has been told. We are thankful for the part we have had in ministering together for her life and vigor, and more so for what we have been able to accomplish in her and through her, for the honor of our blessed Lord, and the extension of his Kingdom. May the divine bless- ing be upon her, for her deeper Spiritual life, and speedi- ly for her enlargement.
APPENDIX I-ELDER CALEB FARLEE QUICK.
The service rendered the Church by Elder Quick seems to make it appropriate to connect his name with this history, although his death occurred after I had ceased to be the pastor of the Church. As in many
327
THE MODERN PERIOD-1820-1900
other cases, I was called back to have a principal part in the funeral services.
Elder C. F. Quick, and his brothers Jacob and John, were born within scarcely more than a mile from the Church; and excepting a short time spent by John in business in New York, they all settled and lived within sight of the Church, all being farmers. They were the sons of Gideon Quick and Sarah Fisher, his wife, and grandsons of Elder John P. Quick. John and Jacob each celebrated their golden wedding anniversary dur- ing my pastorate. And while Mrs. Caleb Quick died five years before the occurance of that event with herself and husband, Mr. Quick lived eight years beyond it, as he and Catharine B. Holcombe were united in mar- riage, November 24th, 1847. He was born July 25th, 1825.
He was chosen trustee of the Church in 1859, and again in 1864, and from that date re-elected and served until 1875. He also served the Church for the same period as President of its Board of Trustees, and also Treasurer. Very frequently during his long life, he was either President or Secretary for the meetings of the Congregation. He united with the Church on ex- amination March the 11th, 1879, under the pastorate of Dr. Blattenberger.
In 1884 he was chosen and ordained to the Elder- ship under the same pastor. The year following he was appointed Clerk of the Session, and so continued throughout his life.
In 1888, he was one of the lay commissioners elected to represent the Presbytery of New Brunswick at the
328
AMWELL FIRST CHURCH
General Assembly at Omaha. During my pastorate he was a member with myself of the Committee of the Church on Foreign Missions. His death occurred Feb- ruary 9th, 1905. In addition to these honors by the Church, he frequently held positions of responsibility and trust in civic affairs. He was called upon by many neighbors to settle estates. Often he was selected as guardian for minors. Other trust money was also com- mitted to his care. It was to his honor and credit that he closed up this business, extending over many years, with the record that he had never lost a dollar of other peoples' money.
He had an abiding interest in the Church, and gave time and money, and his ripened experience, and sound judgment to her wellfare.
The passing away of such a man is indeed a sore be- reavement to the Church and his family. But both must soon realize that in his memory they have a rich inheritance and in his life a stimulus to fuller devotion to the blessed Saviour in whom he trusted, and whom he delighted to serve.
