Notes - 1696 - Bergen Co NJ, Quit Rent Twp, Charistianse Van Horn
More info is in "A Lutheran Mission in Northampton Township in 1748" from an
article in 1926.I think this was presented in an early proceedings of the
Bucks County Historical Society. pgs 45-47.
From History of Bucks County, pg 93:
Barent Christian Van Horn, eldest son of Christian Barents and Jannetje Jans,
as before stated was probably born in Holland, a theory which is born out by
the early date at which he acquired title to land. On March 26, 1667, Governor
Philip Carteret granted to Barent Christian, of Menkauque, planter, fifty acres of land
at Pembrepach and eighty-five acres on the bay called Kill Van Kull, both in Bergen
county. On September 29, 1697, he obtained a grant from the propreitors of East

Two days later, September 20, 1707, Barnard Christian conveyedhis portion to his
two sons, Peter and Christian Barnson, Peter receiving 257acres and Christian 294
acres.
On September 29, 1707, Barnard Christian purchased 550 acres in Bucks county, of
Thomas Groom, 274 acres of which he conveyed to his son Barnard Barnson, June
17, 1714. He also acquired other land in Bucks county, and on June 2, 1722, conveyed
to his son, Isaac Van Horn, 276 acres, and on May 6, 1722, 290 acres to his
son Abraham Van Horn.
He thus owned in all 1381 acres of land in Bucks county, though he continued to
live inBergen county, New Jersey, and died there in 1726. He married,
in 1679, at the Bergen Dutch Reformed church, Geertje Dircks, daughter

of Barent Christian Van Horn and Geertje Dirckse were: etc...
