!COMEOVER-IMMIGRANT: Came to America in 1628 or 1638 (source nearly illegible).
Of Wethersfield, 1640. One of the first settlers of Wethersfield. See: Wilfred
Jordan, COLONIAL AND REVOLUTIONARY FAMILIES OF PENNSYLVANIA; ; New York, Lewis
Hist. Pub. Co., 1942, p. 586.
!WILL: Will dated 1690/1705.
Also found this name with dates: b. abt 1615, d. aft 1692; His father John,
mother Elizabeth, wife Honour Treat, son John, on Website of Richard Lesses
(rwlesses@@tiac.net) on 7/16/96 at URL: http://www.tiac.net/users/rwlesses ;
This John's sister Elizabeth, b. abt 1595, Colchester, Ipswich, England, d. 28
Jul 1683, Wethersfield, Hartford, Connecticut. She married, abt 1615,in
England, Nathaniel Foote (They are also my ancestors, being the parents of
Elizabeth Foote who married Josiah Churchill).
This John seems to have parents Jonathan Deming and Elizabeth Gilbert, as well
as a son Jonathan who married an Elizabeth Gilbert. This is quite possible.
However, both couples have the same AF Numbers in this John Deming Sr's family
group record. On Elizabeth Foote's pedigree chart her grandparents (same
couple) have different AFNs. (con't)
WFT, vol 2, #3249: b. Shalford, Colchester, England. *[Shalford, Essex is
about 20 miles from Colchester on map in Newnes Motoring Guide]

!Charles Pemberton Wurts, A GENEALOGICAL RECORD OF THE WURTS FAMILY, THE
DESCENDANTS OF REV. JOHANNES CONRAD WURTS..., 1889, (91+ pages), p. 21-22,
49-50. [reprint available from the Higginson Book Co., Salem, MA, (508)
745-7170]
"John eldest son of Johannes Conrad [the immigrant], was born June 30, 1744.
Of his early history we have no record, except that at sixteen years of age he
could not speak English; and but little is known of his after years. He
settled in Flanders, Morris County, N. J., where he married Sarah, daughter of
Samuel Grandin. Living, as he did, in Revolutionary times, it is interesting,
at least, to know that he was a patriot, the Grandin family objecting to the
marriage on account of what thay termed his disloyalty.* [a footnote says,
"*Several of the Grandins were officers in the Brittish army during the
Revolution."] He was a successful iron manufacturer, and accumulated a large
fortune for that day. He was the proprietor of several furnaces, or forges,
and was described in some old title deeds as "merchant."
Two of his sons who visited Flanders long after his death found still living
two old men who had known him, and who spoke of him as a man of most estimable
character.
Mr. D. A. Nicholas, an old resident of Flanders, and now living in that
place, whose parents were contemporaries of John Wurts, says that he has often
heard his mother speak of the Wurts family, and that it was held in high
estimation in Flanders.
The burial of John Wurts and of his son John, who died in 1792, at the age
of eleven years, is Mount Pleasant Cemetery, about 2 1/2 miles from the
village of Flanders.
The grave of the father if covered with a brownstone slab, resting upon a
low brick foundation and bearing the following inscription: In Memory Of John
Wurts, Esq., Died at Flanders, New Jersey, 14 September, 1793, Aet 49. "The
sweet remembrance of the just, Shall flourish while they sleep in the dust."
The tombs have recently been put in a state of good repair, the slabs
cleaned and the inscriptions re-cut, under the care and direction of Dr,
Charles Stewart Wurts, and it is purposed to mark the spot more definitely by
surrounding it with a substantial iron railing.
It is hoped that the descendants of John Wurts of coming generations will
not permit the tomb of their ancestor to fall to ruin or decay, or suffer in
any way from want of proper care and attention.
Between the two graves above mentioned is another, marked merely by a small
rough stone at the head and another at the foot, and with no inscription
whatever. This, it is surmised, may be the grave of Peter, the brother of
John, of whose history, as hereafter mentioned, nothing can be learned.
