Roz,

The article written by Ethel Stroupe is at the following address
http://www.tamu.edu/ccbn/dewitt/mckstmerjersey.htm

The people who fled from Hopewell to Hampshire Co. eventually came to
Rowan Co., NC along with others who came directly from NJ to NC to what
was called "The Jersey Settlement" - hence the title of this article.
She covers the entire history of what happened and included in this
articles is the petition that the 50 men signed in Hopewell in protest -
their names are all listed. It is a very good article and I recommend it
to anyone interested in this topic of discussion.
