Franz Le Roy married Celia Janse Damen, and his sons, Jonas and George went with the Ferrees to the Conestoga valley, and later located in York and Lebanon counties. He was also prob- ably the father of Abraham LaRne, who settled near Mifflinburg, in 1754, though tradition makes him a brother of Jean Jacques Le Roy, who was killed by the Indians in 1755, and his daughter Bar- bara carried into captivity as related by her and made part of the state archives. This Jean Jacques Le Roy came direct from Switzerland to America in 1750. Some of the descendants of Franz Le Roy Germanized the name into "Koe- nig" and later Anglicized it to "King." Bergen in his "Early Settlers of Kings County" makes the curious mistake of supposing that Franz Le Roy's wife Celia Janse Damen was twice married, first to Franz Koenig and later to Franz Le Roy, because his name is given in the two forms on the Dutch records of haptisms of his children.

The marriage of Jacques Le Roy. at Bergen Dutch Reformed church, Jann- ary 2, 1681, to Wybregh Hendricks. states that he was "of Manheim in the Palz." as does also that of his sister Susanna to Thones Hendricks, May 20, 1683, at the same church. This might mean that he was born at Manheim, or that he had recently arrived from there; the common practice with the Dutch being to give the place of birth. About the time of his marriage, with other Huguenots. he helped to organize a "French Church" at Bergen, but later affiliated with the Dutch church where

his six children were baptised. He died in 1730, leaving ten children, all of whom seem to have remained in Bergen and Essex counties, New Jersey, and in New York.

Abraham La Roe, as both he and his brother Jacques came later to spell their name, located on Staten Island where he was still residing when he made his will in 1702, though prior to 1712, when it is first offered for probate. he had re- moved to the neighborhood of Hopewell, then Burlington county, later Hunter- don, and now Mercer county, New Jer- sey. His will mentions his children, but not by name. From contemporary rec- ords we learn that his sons were: Peter, Abraham, Daniel, David and Isaac. The witnesses to the will, William Tillyer, Francis L'Roe, Louis DuBois, and Will- iam Grassett, being all either deceased or removed to such distance that their testimony could not be obtained, his will failed of probate and letters of ad- ministration were granted on June 14, 1712, to his widow Olshe (Alice) who had been named as executrix and al- most sole legatee in the will. Olshe, Alshe, or Alken, the wife of Abraham La Roe, was prior to her marriage to him the widow of Joshua Cresson, youngest son of Pierre Cresson, a na- tive of France. who had come to Amer- ica from Holland, where he had mar- ried a Dutch woman, and located on Long Island. Joshua Cresson was bap- tised in 1658, and died prior to 1690. which later date is approximately that of the marriage of his widow to Abraham La Roe. The names of Peter, Abraham, Isaac and David La Rue appear on the tax lists of Hopewell township. in 1722, and the first and last were contributors to a fund to purchase a plantation as a home for the pastor of Hopewell Presbyterian church in 1731. Abraham died in Hopewell "in the cor- poration of Trenton" leaving a will dat- ed February 26, 1747, and proved Feb- ruary 15, 1749. It mentions his wife Harmekie, and children: Abraham, Is- aac, Susannah, wife of Cornelius Slack; Altie, Catren (Catharine) : another daughter, without giving her name, and Jacob. It devises his plantation in Hope- well to his sons, Abraham and Isaac. jointly at the death or marriage of his wife. Isaac was yet a minor. These sons, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, are doubtless the three brothers referred to by Stapleton in his "Memorial of Huguenots," page 136, as the ancestors of the southern family of the name of La Rue; the first and last of whom he states were "pioneers in Kentucky, where LaRue county commemorates their name." If this be true. however, the date of their removal was consider- ably later than there given, as Isaac was still a minor and all were residents of Hunterdon county at the death of

their father in 1747. "Isaac," he states, "born in Hunterdon county, New Jer- sey, in 1712, removed in 1743 to the Shenandoah valley and established the Virginia family of the name." David La- Rue died intestate in Hopewell town- ship, and letters of administration were granted on his estate to Abraham La- Rue, February 18, 1732; nothing is known of his descendants. The remain- ing three brothers; Peter, Daniel. and Isaac LaRue, all settled. at least for a time, in Bucks county. "Peter La Row," of Hopewell in the western division of New Jersey Yeoman, on December II, 1738, purchased of Abel Janney 288 acres in Makefield, and settled thereon, later purchasing 216 acres adjoining. On May 16, 1749, he conveyed 258 acres, part of both tracts, to Nicholas Larzelere, the ancestor of the Bucks county family of that name, who at that date removed from Staten Island to Bucks county. No further record appears in Bucks county of Peter LaRue. Isaac LaRue evidently located in Bucks county at about the same date as his brother Peter. On October 6, 1743, he married, at Ab- ington Presbyterian church, Rebeckah Vansant. daughter of Jacobus Vansant, of Middletown. (See Vansant Family). He purchased land in Bensalem in 1745, and died there about 1760, leaving chil- dren: Rebecca, who married James Van Arsdalen: Abraham, Isaac and David, all of whom left descendants.

Daniel LaRue, with whose descend- ants this narrative is chiefly interested, was without doubt a son of Abraham and Alshe (Alice) Cresson LaRoe, or Le Roy. of Staten Island, later of Hope- well, New Jersey. He was born on Staten Island in the year 1697, and was reared at Hopewell, where, as before stated he contributed to the support of Hopewell Presbyterian church in 1722. On June 15, 1751, the executors of Mark Watson, convey to "Daniel La Roe. of Hunterdon county, Province of West Jersey," 300 acres in Falls township, Bucks county, Pennsylvania, and on January 26, 1763. John Plumley conveys to "Daniel La Roe. of Falls township, Bucks county" 200 acres in Middletown township. He died in Middletown town- ship, February 1, 1795. at the age of ninety-eight years, and is buried in the old Presbyterian burying ground in Bensalem. His wife was Ann Praul. who died October 23. 1776, at the age of sixty-two years, and is buried in the same cemetery. The will of "Daniel Larrew, the elder. of Middletown town- ship, dated March 19, 1786, and proven February 16, 1795, devised to son Abra- ham, five pds. "he already having had his share" Son Daniel the plantation where the testator then lived. 200 acres "bought of John Plumley:" Son Moses the north- easterly part of the plantation in Falls, 212 acres; Son Peter and Daughter Mary
