• Notes

  Timothy, was among the first settlers in the Hibernia mountains from Long Island. His wife died, leaving young Timothy Jr. but a few weeks old, born Oct 6, 1736. His father sold out his household belongings and started on foot to return to relatives at Long Island. He passed the first night at Haden's at Denville, and was induced to leave young Timothy, and return later, or during the next summer. He never returned, and was never heard from. Young Timothy grew up with the Haden family, and married Susanna Sworden May 16, 1762, and had several children who married in Revolutionary families of this section. - Tradition has it that this family of SOUTHARDS who came from Long Island, were related and connected with the family of Abraham SOUTHARD, who came from Long Island and settled at Basking Ridge in 1755. His son, Henry born Oct. 1747, was a Revolutionary soldier, and afterwards a congressman, died June 2, 1842. Samuel L., son of Henry, born at Basking Ridge June 9, 1787, also distinguished himself as senator, secretary of navy, and also many high offices of this State, where he was known as "New Jerseys favorite son", he died at Fredericksburg, VA, June 26, 1842.
