-- FOX -- The family groups represented in this collection may not be complete, because information was entered bit by bit as I found it or happened upon it; I have not done any systematic research on these families. Because they do not compose whole family genealogies, these listings are arranged differently from most genealogical records or histories. Each listing is a family group, and is arranged and filed alphabetically under the name of the head of the family. Names are generally in alphabetical order (disregarding spelling variations and middle names), then in approx. chronological order. The first sorting is by surname (mixing together any and all spelling variations), then by given name, then by approximate birthdate (when known) in approximate chronological order. For easier reference, surnames in headings are grouped together under the most common spelling usage that evolved in this geographical location, regardless of individualistic spellings in the records themselves. Cross references are used in most cases where surname spellings substantially vary. Within the quoted records, the individual spellings have been (mostly) retained because they sometimes provide clues (although in general but with exceptions they seem to largely reflect the record keeper's particular orthography and not always, at this early period, any special family preference). Those interested can see the variety and evolvement of a particular name s spelling and the interesting and sometimes amusing attempts at phonetic reproduction. Keep in mind that before names and spellings were standardized, records reflected the individualistic whim of the particular recorder (often two different spellings of the same name within the same document). In addition, all records were handwritten, and sometimes deciphering a handwritten name in early records can be quite challenging! So expect to search under all possibilities of spelling (for both surnames and given names). Given names are grouped together without regard for middle initials or middle names. Because middle names and/or initials are sometimes used, sometimes not used in various records, it seemed simplest to arrange entries as if the middle names or initials did not exist. Usually all variations of a given name are grouped together as though spelled one way: Jan, Johannes, John, etc. are all grouped as one (but also look under the other forms). Sources and references are included with each "family" grouping, but may or may not include sources that are cited (or are obvious, such as baptismal records, etc.) within the narrative or listing itself. As with any compiled genealogical record, researchers should regard this information as leads and clues, and should verify all data with independent research. I welcome, and would be grateful for, any additions or corrections, especially with source citations. copyright 2011 Patricia A. Wardell 130 Crestview Drive Englewood, FL 34223 the.wardells@gte.net (I prefer e-mail correspondence) ------------------------------- Fox, Vos, Voss, de Vos, Fuchs, etc. There were numerous Fox families in the NY-NJ area in the Colonial period. Some apparently Danish Fox families were in New Amsterdam at very early dates. Some descended from 1709 Palatine emigrants from Germany. Fox, -?- -?- Fox m. Elizabeth d. d. April 1839 Essex Co., NJ New Jersey Court of Errors and Appeals -- STARKEY et al. T. FOX et al. (Court of Chancery of New Jersey. May 15, 1894.) Adverse Possession Occupancy Under ExPress Trust Evidence. To defeat an open, notorious, exclusive, and unquestioned possession of lands for 50 years, on the ground that the party in possession held as the trustee of an express trust, it must clearly appear that the possession was taken and held while the trust was subsisting. When the court is asked to presume such conditions, they must not only be deduoible from some of the facts, but must be equally consistent with others. Such presumption will not be made where a presumption is also raised, consistent with all known facts, that the trust has been extinguished. Bill by Thomas Starkey and others against Elizabeth Fox and others. Heard on bill, answer, replication, and proofs in open court. Bill dismissed. -- This bill is to establish an alleged express trust In certain lands in Morris county, and for relief. June 14, 1838, one Thomas Holden was seised In fee of three tracts of land described in the bill, and situate about a mile and a half from the courthouse In Morristown, Morris county. Thomas Holden executed and delivered to one Elizabeth Fox, of Newark, a mortgage upon these tracts of land, dated June 14, 1838, for $1,200. due in one year, with Interest, accord- 1
ing to the condition of the bond; which mortgage was recorded in Book R of Mortgages of Morris county, page 123. Elizabeth Fox, the mortgagee, died April, 1839, In Essex county, intestate, leaving her surviving a son, Thomas Fox, and two daughters, Martha, then the wife of Benjamin Starkey, of Morris county; and Zilpah, then the wife of Ellas Stansberry, of Essex county. Letters of administration on the estate of Elizabeth Fox were granted by the surrogate of Essex county May 4, 1839, to her son, Thomas Fox, who took upon himself the administration of the estate. He filed an inventory of the personal estate, in which was Included the amount of principal and Interest due on said mortgage of Thomas Holden, appraised at $1,263.80. Thomas Fox, as administrator, January 20, 1840, filed a bill in this court to foreclo.se the said mortgage. Decree of foreclosure and sale was entered April 9, 1840, fixing the amount due on said mortgage at $1,331.20. Execution was issued to the sheriff of Morris county, under which the said sheriff, on July 18, 1840, sold the mortgaged premises to Thomas Fox, administrator of Elizabeth Fox, for the sum of $920. By deed dated July 27, 1840, the said sheriff conveyed the several tracts of land unto "Thomas Fox, administrator, as aforesaid, and to his assigns," the word "heirs" being erased. This deed was recorded in Morris county July 27, 1840. Thomas Fox was cited to account as administrator on May 4, 1841, to the orphans' court of Essex county. 1...During the whole of this time he [Thomas Fox, administrator of the estate of Elizabeth Fox] worked the farm, clearing, improving, and tilling it, and paid the taxes, taking to himself the proceeds without accounting, or being called to account. by Benjamin Starkey, husband of Martha Fox, who lived for most of the time in Morris county, near the farm, or by Elias Stansberry or Nehemiah Baldwin, the husbands of Zilpah Fox, who resided in the county of Essex, or by any one until this suit. Thomas Fox died in 1801, leaving him surviving his daughters, Elizabeth Fox; Caroline, wife of Jeremiah Stalter; Martha, wife of George Harry; Harriet, wife of John N. Conklin; and a grandchild, Elizabeth May Moody, Infant of a deceased daughter, Mary, wife of Matthew Moody. Thomas Fox died testate, appointing by his will his sons-in-law, Jeremiah Stalter, George Harry, Matthew Moody, and John N. Conklin, his executors, and giving, devising and bequeathing the residue and remainder of his estate, real and personal, to his five daughters, their heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, In equal shares. The executors proved his will, and have, under a clause of the will, executed a deed to Elizabeth Fox for 3.87 acres, and one to Mary E. Ogden for 22.84 acres. The heirs and executors of Thomas Fox and Mary E. Ogden, and the heirs at law of Thomas Holden, are the defendants in' this suit; the latter on the ground that the sheriff's deed, not containing words of inheritance, only conveyed a life estate, and they, on the record, are entitled to the reversion. Martha Fox, daughter of Elizabeth Fox, the mortgagee, married, about the year 1820, Benjamin Starkey. She died in 1877, leaving her surviving her husband and five children, viz. Thomas Starkey; Joseph Starkey; Sarah Ann, wife of John M. Johnson; Alice, wife of Isaac Van Ness; and Elizabeth, wife of John Flurry, who is since deceased without issue. Benjamin Starkey, the husband, who was the exceptant to the account of Thomas Fox, administrator, died testate. His will, dated.july 12, 1883, was proved May 2, 1889, by the executors therein named, Joseph Starkey and John M. Johnson. After directing his debts to be paid, he gives all the rest, residue, and remainder of his estate to his five children. Zilpah Fox, daughter of Elizabeth Fox, the mortgagee, married, somewhere about the year 1831-32, Elias Stansberry. He died January 1, 1844, leaving hiin surviving his widow, Zilpah, and two daughters, Elizabeth, born in 1833, who is now the wife of Abraham Cadmus; and Mary Jane, born in 1841, who Is now the wife of George Cadmus. His widow afterwards married Nehemiah Baldwin, who died In 1850, without issue; and she died August 6, 1888, having appointed her daughters her executors and legatees. These heirs and representatives of Martha Fox and Zilpah Fox are the complainants. The bill prays, that the sheriff's deed to Thomas Fox, administrator, may be reformed by inserting proper words of inheritance; that Thomas Fox may be decreed to have purchased and held the estate in said lands In trust for himself. 1 ---children of -?- Fox & Elizabeth Thomas Fox, b. about 1809 England; d. 1891; m.

(Court of Chancery of New Jersey. May 15, 1894.) Adverse Possession Occupancy Under ExPress Trust Evidence. To defeat an open, notorious, exclusive, and unquestioned possession of lands for 50 years, on the ground that the party in possession held as the trustee of an express trust, it must clearly appear that the possession was taken and held while the trust was subsisting. When the court is asked to presume such conditions, they must not only be deduoible from some of the facts, but must be equally consistent with others. Such presumption will not be made where a presumption is also raised, consistent with all known facts, that the trust has been extinguished.bill by Thomas Starkey and others against Elizabeth Fox and others. Heard on bill, answer, replication, and proofs in open court. Bill dismissed. -- This bill is to establish an alleged express trust In certain lands in Morris county, and for relief. June 14, 1838, one Thomas Holden was seised In fee of three tracts of land described in the bill, and situate about a mile and a half from the courthouse In Morristown, Morris county. Thomas Holden executed and delivered to one Elizabeth Fox, of Newark, a mortgage upon these tracts of land, dated June 14, 1838, for $1,200. due in one year, with Interest, according to the condition of the bond; which mortgage was recorded in Book R of Mortgages of Morris county, page 123. Elizabeth Fox, the mortgagee, died April, 1839, In Essex county, intestate, leaving her surviving a son, Thomas Fox, and two daughters, Martha, then the wife of Benjamin Starkey, of Morris county; and Zilpah, then the wife of Ellas Stansberry, of Essex county. Letters of administration on the estate of Elizabeth Fox were granted by the surrogate of Essex county May 4, 1839, to her son, Thomas Fox, who took upon himself the administration of the estate. He filed an inventory of the personal estate, in which was Included the amount of principal and Interest due on said mortgage of Thomas Holden, appraised at $1,263.80. Thomas Fox, as administrator, January 20, 1840, filed a bill in this court to foreclo.se the said mortgage. Decree of foreclosure and sale was entered April 9, 1840, fixing the amount due on said mortgage at $1,331.20. Execution was issued to the sheriff of Morris county, under which the said sheriff, on July 18, 1840, sold the mortgaged premises to Thomas Fox, administrator of Elizabeth Fox, for the sum of $920. By deed dated July 27, 1840, the said sheriff conveyed the several tracts of land unto "Thomas Fox, administrator, as aforesaid, and to his assigns," the word "heirs" being erased. This deed was recorded in Morris county July 27, 1840. Thomas Fox was cited to account as administrator on May 4, 1841, to the orphans' court of Essex county. 1...During the whole of this time he [Thomas Fox, administrator of the estate of Elizabeth Fox] worked the farm, clearing, 24
improving, and tilling it, and paid the taxes, taking to himself the proceeds without accounting, or being called to account. by Benjamin Starkey, husband of Martha Fox, who lived for most of the time in Morris county, near the farm, or by Elias Stansberry or Nehemiah Baldwin, the husbands of Zilpah Fox, who resided in the county of Essex, or by any one until this suit. Thomas Fox died in 1801, leaving him surviving his daughters, Elizabeth Fox; Caroline, wife of Jeremiah Stalter; Martha, wife of George Harry; Harriet, wife of John N. Conklin; and a grandchild, Elizabeth May Moody, Infant of a deceased daughter, Mary, wife of Matthew Moody. Thomas Fox died testate, appointing by his will his sons-in-law, Jeremiah Stalter, George Harry, Matthew Moody, and John N. Conklin, his executors, and giving, devising and bequeathing the residue and remainder of his estate, real and personal, to his five daughters, their heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, In equal shares. The executors proved his will, and have, under a clause of the will, executed a deed to Elizabeth Fox for 3.87 acres, and one to Mary E. Ogden for 22.84 acres. The heirs and executors of Thomas Fox and Mary E. Ogden, and the heirs at law of Thomas Holden, are the defendants in' this suit; the latter on the ground that the sheriff's deed, not containing words of inheritance, only conveyed a life estate, and they, on the record, are entitled to the reversion. Martha Fox, daughter of Elizabeth Fox, the mortgagee, married, about the year 1820, Benjamin Starkey. She died in 1877, leaving her surviving her husband and five children, viz. Thomas Starkey; Joseph Starkey; Sarah Ann, wife of John M. Johnson; Alice, wife of Isaac Van Ness; and Elizabeth, wife of John Flurry, who is since deceased without issue. Benjamin Starkey, the husband, who was the exceptant to the account of Thomas Fox, administrator, died testate. His will, dated.july 12, 1883, was proved May 2, 1889, by the executors therein named, Joseph Starkey and John M. Johnson. After directing his debts to be paid, he gives all the rest, residue, and remainder of his estate to his five children. Zilpah Fox, daughter of Elizabeth Fox, the mortgagee, married, somewhere about the year 1831-32, Elias Stansberry. He died January 1, 1844, leaving hiin surviving his widow, Zilpah, and two daughters, Elizabeth, born in 1833, who is now the wife of Abraham Cadmus; and Mary Jane, born in 1841, who Is now the wife of George Cadmus. His widow afterwards married Nehemiah Baldwin, who died In 1850, without issue; and she died August 6, 1888, having appointed her daughters her executors and legatees. These heirs and representatives of Martha Fox and Zilpah Fox are the complainants. The bill prays, that the sheriff's deed to Thomas Fox, administrator, may be reformed by inserting proper words of inheritance; that Thomas Fox may be decreed to have purchased and held the estate in said lands In trust for himself. 1 ---children of Thomas Fox & Sarah A.
