END from https://goodspeedhistories.com/route-not-taken-part-3/ Marfy Goodspeed (Tunis Case below is the same as the father of spouse of 32.55) BEGIN John H. Gordon & Catherine Case Beers: “J. H. Gordon” Survey Map: not shown Slaymaker: “John H. Gordon” Cramer Survey: not listed John H. Gordon (1797-1876), son of Othniel Gordon and Mary Heath (see Gordon Family Tree), married in 1828 Catherine Case (1797-1886), daughter of Tunis Case and Elizabeth Landis. By the time that the rail line was surveyed, the Gordons were well advanced in age, both being 76 years old. Gordon’s property was not shown on the survey map, but the Beers Atlas has a detail showing the village of Sergeantsville in 1873, and J. H. Gordon is shown with a lot that extends from the west side of the village to Route 523 on the south. The farm was sold to the Gordons by Cornelius & Lydia Lake in 1832, and consisted of two lots, one of 19.06 acres, and the other of 0.6 acres on the southwest corner of Sergeantsville, bordering other land of Cornelius Lake.6 In 1865, Gordon was charged an income tax of $18.60. In 1872, John H. and Catharine Gordon sold a small lot on Route 523 to their neighbor, Charles Green, being part of the tract sold to them by Cornelius Lake in 1832. There is not much to say about John H. Gordon. The only mention of him in the abstracts from the Hunterdon Gazette is that in 1840 he was among the Delaware Township supporters of Henry Harrison. John H. Gordon died on October 22, 1876, age 79, and was buried in the cemetery attached to the Methodist Church in Sergeantsville. Six months later, his widow Catherine, daughter Letitia and her husband James P. Dilts, and daughter Sarah Gordon conveyed the farm, which then contained 43.79 acres to Gordon’s son-in-law Joseph Williamson, who paid $4,500 for it.7 Joseph Williamson (1839-1900) started out as a local school teacher, who was known to Egbert T. Bush. He was active in local Democratic politics, and in 1863 was elected vice-president of the township’s Democratic club. He married Mary A. Gordon (1839-1908) in 1864, when the Civil War was nearly over. Mary’s mother Catherine Gordon remained in her home until her death on December 26, 1886, after which she was buried next to her husband. Joseph Williamson established a creamery on this farm in 1881, but that is another story. END
