Hi Roz, Bob Dils in SW Colorado. Would you have in your Bellis
genealogy any material on the Dils (Dilts,Diltz) surname. I have info
on several Bellis/Dils marriages incl Adam Bellis an ancestor of the
famous bandmaster/composer. Would appreciTR AND Dils data you might
havr. Quite apparently the Dils and Bellis families lived quite close
in Hunterdon Co NJ way back when. I am also descended from the
Maxwells, not the General friend of George Washington and not the
lawyer of Hunterdon Co but apparently a farmer Anything you might have
on the Maxwell surname or the Kitchen family of early to mid 1700s would
be appreciated.

Hunterdon


STRYKKER's "Officers and Men of New Jersey in the Revolutionary War"
lists these individuals

2nd Regiment Hunterdon, Capt Maxwell's Company:

Capt John MAXWELL, Commander (apparently served in Sussex County militia
as a Lieutenant, if I'm reading Strykker's info correctly) Lt Robert
MAXWELL Pvt Andrew BELLOS (BELLIS) Pvt Richard CURREN

2nd Regiment Hunterdon, Staff:

Lt. BARTON (fnu) served on the staff of the 2nd Regiment Hunterdon

Could anyone help to answer these questions:

1. Is this the same John MAXWELL whose name is in the Sussex Co. Deed
Books as having deposed witnesses James BISHOP & Robt ALLISON on 28
February 1797. This was with regard to the December 1796 transfer of
land from the heirs of Isaac SWAYZE of Oxford to the heirs of Joseph
LEMON, also of Oxford. This land was located near the Beaver Brook,
presumably in the vicinity of Swayzes Mills. 2. Was Robert MAXWELL
related to his company commander, John? 3. Was Richard CURREN's name
mispelled? Was he actually a CURRENT? 4. What was Lt. BARTON's first
name?

Does anyone know if STRYKKER's book comes in digital format? It lists
soldier's names in alphabetical order, but I would love to be able to
query his data by military unit level (the book does this for officers,
but not enlisted men.)

Thanks!
