Samuel B. Halsey was the son of Dr. Abraham and Nancy Beach Halsey, and was born at Fishkill, N. Y., July 24th 1796. He entered Union College in 1811 and graduated in 1815. He commenced the study of law with Hon. James Talmadge, at Poughkeepsie, and in 1817 was appointed aid-de-camp by Governor Talmadge. He was licensed as an attorney by the supreme court of New York, October 30th, 1818, and practiced his profession from that time until 1834, when he removed to Rockaway. He was twice elected to the Legislature of New York from Dutchess county, once in 1826 and again in 1830. At one of these elections he was the only member of his party that was elected. On his removal to New Jersey he abandoned the active practice of the law, and engaged in mining and manufacturing iron, farming, etc., and in assisting his father-in-law, Colonel Joseph Jackson, in the management of his affairs. He was frequently engaged, as master in chancery, in the settlement of estates, and from 1846 to 1851 was one of the judges of Morris county. He was twice elected to the Legislature of New Jersey, first in September 1841, and again in 1843. At the second election he was made speaker of the house. He died in Rockaway, September 15th, 1871. His strict integrity and kindness of heart won the love and respect of all who knew him.

3023. Alfred Benjamin Jackson-23168
The following notes and research contributed by Dr. Anthony L. Troha:
I came across an article about the reunion of the Fifteenth Regiment New Jersey Volunteers, which contained a letter and a casualty list from 1864. Amongst those listed is Alfred Benjamin Jackson (RIN #23168), a member of Company D, who is listed as "missing". Since we know from other sources, including Munsell's History of Morris County, that he was killed in action on May 8, 1864. I think that his body was unrecognizable and he was probably buried in an "unknown" grave. That would explain why his body was not recovered and interred in Rockaway with his relatives, and why I could not find him in any of the military cemeteries in the vicinity of Spotsylvania, Virginia. The citation for this article, which spans three pages, is:
"Survivors of the Gallant Fifteenth in Annual Reunion" in "The Iron Era", Friday, September 16, 1904, (Volume XXXIV, Number 44, Page 1, Columns 3 and 4; Page 2, Columns 1 to 6; Page 4, Column 3) published in Dover, Morris County, New Jersey. Alfred Benjamin Jackson is listed on Page 2, Column 5.
Different sources place Alfred Benjamin Jackson in the Thirteenth Regiment New Jersey Volunteers:
"The Ogden Family in America, Elizabethtown Branch, and Their English Ancestry", pg 360:
"3370. ALFRED BENJAMIN JACKSON, b. Oct. 6, 1844; d. May 8, 1864.
He was a soldier of the Civil War, belonging to Co. D. 13th N. J. Vols. He was killed in battle, May 8, 1864."
But this is a typographical error. Between the article in "The Iron Era" and the regimental statistics given in Munsell's History of Morris County, we can determine Alfred Benjamin Jackson's military career.
From Munsell's History of Morris County, Page 92, Column 2:
"On Thursday, January 20th 1864, some twenty recruits from Morris county joined the 15th regiment, and during the winter others from Morris and Sussex. The following is a list of them and the companies to which they were assigned:
...
Alfred B. Jackson, Co. A, Jan. 2 `64; tr. to Co. D; killed May 8 `64.
..."
From Munsell's History of Morris County, Page 359, Column 2, under an article entitled "Rockaway's Union Soldiers", written from information provided by Lieutenant Edmund Drake Halsey (RIN #1923), we find:
"Fifteenth N. J. Volunteers. ---...
Alfred B. Jackson, Company D, enlisted January 2nd 1864, killed in action May 8th 1864; ..."
Another source is "History of the Fifteenth Regiment New Jersey Volunteers" by Alanson A. Haines, printed by Jenkins and Thomas, New York (1883). On Page 328, we have under the section entitled "Additions to Company A, by Recruits, Draft, Transfers, Etc." the listing
"Alfred B. Jackson, Jan. 2, 1864, Recruit, trans. to Co. D.",
while on Page 346, one sees under the section "Company D. Roll of Recruits, Drafted Men, Etc.", the notice
"Alfred B. Jackson, Jan. 2, 1864, Recruit, trans. from Co. A. Killed Spottsylvania [Sic.], May 8, 1864."
So now we know he volunteered for service on January 2, 1864, was subsequently transferred from Fifteenth Regiment New Jersey Volunteers, Company A to the regiment's Company D, and he was killed at Spotsylvania, VA on May 8, 1864, but where he is buried is unknown. He is not listed on any rolls of the war dead buried in the vicinity of Spotsylvania that I have found.

1537. Stephen Jackson-1326
According to the book, A Century and a Half of Pittsburg and Her People, He was born 17 Jun 1803 in Rockaway, NJ and attended the schools of that place with but scanty results, being mainly self-educated. He began life as a worker in the iron industry. In 1848 he moved with his family to Coopersville, South Carolina, remaining one year, and then going to Mount Savage, Maryland, where he was placed in charge of the Mount Savage Iron Works. These were the first in the United States to manufacture rails, the machinery for the prupose being brought from England on sailing vessels. In 1857, Mr. Jackson went to Johnstown, Pennsylvania, and there lived in retirement until October, 1865, when he removed to Allegheny City, there making his home for the remander of his life.
While a resident of Morris County, NJ, he was nominated for sheriff, but from motives of delicacy did not cast a ballot for himself, and lost the election by his own vote. In politics he was a Jackson Democrat, but voted for Abraham Lincoln, and ever after was identified with the Republicans. He and his wife were devout members of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
3031. James S. Jackson-1334
At the time of publication of the book, A Century and a Half of Pittsburg and her People, Vol. III in 1908, James and his family was residing in McKeesport, Pennsylvania.
3033. Francis F. Jackson-17364
At the time of the publication of the book, A Century and a Half of Pittsburg and her People, Vol. III in 1908, Francis and his family were living in East Liverpool, Ohio.
1538. George W. Jackson-1339
OBR: pg 16 says George died in California leaving 2 young children.
****
The book A Century and a Half of Pittsburg and her People, states that he went to California in 1849 with his brother Stephen in the quest for gold. After a visit home was returning in 1852 accompanied by his nephew Roswell M. Jackson when he was taken with fever at Panama and died at Stockton, CA.
Rev. Josiah Flynt Canfield-1337
The book: Sayre Family - Lineage of Thomas Sayre, a Founder of Southamption, page 100 says Josiah died Jan 1, 1895 but A History of Thomas Canfield and of Matthew Camfield states on page 78 that he died 31 Dec 1894, just a days difference.
The following material was contributed by Dr. Anthony L. Troha:
The Reverend Josiah Flynt (or Flint) Canfield was related to both the Canfields and the Caldwells, and he was a clergyman, so some detailed pieces were written about him. Please note that the Flynt or Flint in his name is likely a surname of an ancestor, but I have not been able to ascertain from which parental lineage it stems.Page 78 from the cited History of Thomas Canfield. . .:
"Josiah Flint Canfield 6, s. Isaac & Margaret (Caldwell) Canfield. b. 22 March 1808, in Morristown, N.J. d. 31 Dec. 1894, at Ocean City, N.J. m. 1, Sarah Campion, 31 March 1835. 1 ch.

Mary A. 7, Emily G.7, Albert 0. 7 He was a member of the Newark Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and for thirty years was a circuit rider in the southern part of New Jersey. He had a great many charges. When he became superannuated, he went to Spring Creek, near Curran, Sangamon Co., Ill., where he purchased eighty acres of land and commenced farming and the cultivation of small fruits. He introduced some of the best varieties of fruit from New Jersey, particularly strawberries. He was largely instrumental in the introduction of the Early Rose potato, paying forty-eight dollars a barrel for the seed potatoes ; he sold the increase at the market price of the ordinary varieties, as it was his constant desire to aid his fellow man. His last years were spent at Ocean City. Buried at Bargaintown, N.J. Chart 8."Finally, a memorial was written by a fellow clergyman:
Minutes of the Thirty-Eighth Session of the Newark Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church held in Bethel Methodist Episcopal Church, Tottenville, N.Y., April 3 to 9, 1895, edited by H. D. Opdyke and John F. Dodd (1895).
In the section entitled "VI. Memoirs.", there is a memorial for the Reverend Josiah Flint Canfield by John F. Dodd. For brevity, only the relevant segments are quoted.
Page 66:
"Rev. Joseph Flint Canfield, born March 22, 1808, at Morris Plains, N.J, passed to his reward on high from his home at Ocean City, N.J.. December 31, 1894, having completed nearly eighty-seven years of earthly life. He was the son of Isaac and Margaret Caldwell Canfield, being the youngest of ten children, all of whom grew to manhood and womanhood, and all of whom he outlived."
Page 67:
"Our brother was thrice married, his first wife being Sarah Campion, of Vincentown, N.J., who died in 1840, leaving one daughter, Mrs. H. D. Canfield, with whom he spent the last twenty years of his life, and at whose residence he died. His second wife was Eliza Jackson, of Rockaway, N.J., who died soon after her marriage in 1842. In 1845 he was married to Abigail Clark, of Philadelphia, who survives him, as do all his children, five in number."
1540. Mary Burwell Jackson-1717
Oscar B. Robbins' book, pg 18 states that Mary Burwell Jackson died 5 Mar 1867 but the 1880 census appears to prove that is an error. Mary B. Wood is recorded living with her family in Dover, Morris Co., NJ in 1880. See her obit below.

"Wood
The many Dover friends of Mrs. Mary B. Wood, widow of the late Judge Freeman Wood, will regret to learn of her death which took place on Wednesday night of this week at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Albridge C. Smith, in Orange. Mrs. Wood was born at Rockaway on August 3, 1812 and was married there in 1831. She was the daughter of William Jackson and Susan D. Halsey Jackson and spent the most of her life in this vicinity. She was for many years a member of the Dover Presbyterian Church. Judge Wood took up his residence here in the Spring of 1872 and since his death in 1891, Mrs. Wood made Dover her home until last fall when on account of her advanced age she went to Orange to live with her daughter. The funeral services will be held at [address illegible; it may say "318"] Lincoln avenue, Orange, on Saturday at 1 p.m. Interment will be made in Rockaway Cemetery at 4 p.m."

I tracked down Freeman Wood's obituary, which can be found at
http://www.rtlibrary.org/iron_era/1891/1891-08-28.pdf , but it is quite long, so I transcribed the relevant sections for you:Obituary for Judge Freeman Wood
from "The Iron Era" of Friday, August 28, 1891 (Volume XXI, Number 39, Page 3, Columns 3 and 4), published in Dover, Morris County, New Jersey[The details of his career and life are omitted for brevity---the full obituary occupies one whole column and continues into a second.]
"AFTER AN EVENTFUL LIFE
The Death of Judge Freeman Wood---A Long and Notable CareerJudge Freeman Wood, whose industry, intelligence and capacity had made him a prominent citizen of Morris county for more than half a century, passed away from this life at his home in Dover on Monday afternoon [i.e. on Monday, August 24, 1891], at 2 o'clock, his death having been anticipated for some time by the nature of his illness.
Freeman Wood was one of the three children of William and Susan Wood and was born at Woodport February 4th, 1809. His brother, William A. Wood, and his sister, Maria, the wife of John M. Losey, both died a number of years ago. His father, in whose honor Woodport was named, was one of the pioneers of the iron business of that section, and was a well known citizen of his time. His son Freeman developed in very early life the business faculties that afterward made him noted and when he entered manhood became a partner of Israel Losey, who then kept a store in Dover. Their store was a stone building on Blackwell street, near the post-office, on the site of the building now owned by L. D. Schwarz.
While thus engaged he was married, at the age of 22 years, to Mary B. Jackson, the daughter of William and Susan D. Jackson, of Rockaway, who survives him. The wedding occurred October 19th, 1831, and had he lived but two months longer he would have celebrated with his wife the rare event of a 60th anniversary of wedded life---an event that but a short time ago he was looking forward to with a great deal of pleasure. It is a notable coincidence that Mrs. Wood's parents also enjoyed a remarkable union of 57 years." ... "To his family he was most kind and always solicitious [sic: "solicitous"] for their welfare.
Seven children were born to him, of whom three have passed away. A son died in infancy [perhaps this refers to the John Henry Wood listed in Robbins' book] ; a daughter, Anna, lived to young womanhood, and his eldest son, Maj. William J. Wood, who was a prominent citizen of Hartford, Conn., died in 1885. The children who with his wife survive him are Mrs. Susan L. Neff, who resides at his home ; John F. Wood, of this place; Florence, the wife of Albridge C. Smith, of Brick Church, and Dr. T. Clement Wood, of Haverstraw, N.Y. His descendants also number seven grandchildren." ... "The pallbearers were his sons, John F. and Dr. T. Clement Wood, his grandsons, Stewart M. Neff and Willie Wood, and Albridge C. Smith and Fred. H. Beach."
[Mr. Beach was from a prominent family in the area and was apparently not directly related to Judge Wood, but he could have been related to the Jackson Family of Rockaway through the mother of Susan Day Jackson née Halsey, Nancy Day Beach]."

3046. Laura Maria Jackson-1735
Noted below provided by Dr. Anthony Troha:
Excerpt from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamaliel_Bartlett:
"The first of their two children who lived to maturity was Jane Mariah who was born at Monroe, New York (formerly known as Monroe Works) in the county of Orange, on December 4, 1819. She married (October 20, 1840 at Succasunna, Morris, New Jersey) William A. Jackson (1817-1895) and she died on February 15, 1865 at the Centerville Section of Livingston Township, Essex, New Jersey. This couple had one child, Laura Maria (1843-1916) who married (April 30, 1862 at Centerville (now Roseland), Livingston, Essex, New Jersey) William H. Griffith (1839-1901). There were no offspring."So according to this, Laura Maria Jackson and her husband, William Griffith, lived in what is now the town of Roseland, N.J. Using that detail led to a page on the Roseland Landmarks and Historic District Commission website:
http://www.roselandhistsocnj.org/histhome/grifith.htm
"The Griffith House
22 Harrison Avenue
This austere house was probably built by the Jackson family in about 1830. It is a plain frame house with gabled roof and porch facing the street, but it conveys both dignity and elegance. The ceilings are high, unlike those of earlier houses in the area. William Griffith lived across the street and married Laura Jackson. After Laura's parents died, the house became known as the Griffith House. William died in 1901 and Laura in 1916. They had no children. In the 20th century the house changed hands several times. It was the home of Virginia Cannon, the antiques dealer, until 1993, when it was purchased by the Borg family."
