The settlement with William Reape, James Grover, John Tilton and others in July, 1670, gives the names only of those who were considered first purchasers; it does not include the names of all who had settled in the county at that date. In the office of the Proprietors of East Jersey, at Perth Amboy, is a list of persons who took the oath of allegiance in 1668; this list is also given in the first volume of New Jersey Archives. And this does not give the names of all settlers, as all would not subscribe to the oath presented by the Proprietors; and only two are named at Middletown. But it contains some names not found in the settlements above named. The list is as follows:

"Christopher Allmy, Peter Parker, George Chute, Nicholas Brown, Edward Patterson, George Hulett, Joseph Parker, Lewis Mattox, Jacob Cole, Gabriel Kirk, Joseph Huit, John Slocum, Samuel Shaddock, Thomas Wright, Thomas Wanrite, John Havens, Bash Shamgungue, Edmund La Fetra, John Hall, Robert West, Sr., Robert West, Jr., Abraham Brown, William Newman, Francis Masters.

The Names of the Inhabitants of Middletown upon Navesink that doe subscribe to the oath of allegiance to the King and fidelity to the Lords Proprietors. And the oath is this, that you and any of you will bare, &c.

JAMES GROVER,
JOHN BOWNE."

In the list as copied in New Jersey Archives, the name of Thomas Wainwright is erroneously given as Thomas Wansick; the copy at Perth Amboy has it Thomas Wanrite, which was meant for Thomas Wainright, who was a settler at the time.

William Goulding, one of the patentees, remained at Gravesend until 1693, when he sold out there and it is supposed that then in his old age he came to Monmouth to live with relatives.

William Reape, another patentee, died in 1670; his widow and children settled in Monmouth.
