Note 17 — THE DE CAMP FAMILY.

Note.—It may be that this Gideon6 De Camp was not a son of Morris5 De Camp (John4, Henry3, Laurence2, John1). He could not be identical with Gideon4 (Henry3, Laurence2, John1), baptized 1721, May 21, or with Gideon4 (Gideon3, Laurence2, John1) baptized 1727, Oct. 15. He is clearly a grandson of Henry3 (Laurence2, John1), but the fact that he was a physician in good circumstances owning several valuable tracts of land at Elizabeth, Westfield, and Rahway, is indicative that he might not be identical with the Gideon6 (Morris5, John4, Henry3, Laurence2, John1) mentioned in Sheriff’s Deed, Isaac Ward, Sheriff, to Moses Jacques, dated 11 Jan. 1804, recorded Newark Registry in Book H. of Deeds, page 522, as one against whose land a judgment writ of fi. fa. was issued and under which the land was seized and sold.
