Rachel Ann TEN EYCK

1835 - 1878  (43 years)

• Name	Rachel Ann TEN EYCK
  Born	8 May 1835	Somerset County, New Jersey, United States   [1]
  	Birth date computed from her death record which said that she was 43 years, 6 months and 28 days old when she died.
  Gender	Female
  Residence	1840	Hillsborough Township, Somerset, New Jersey, United States
  	There is nothing that will positively tie Rachel to the family of Jeremiah and Elsey Hoagland Ten Eyck. However, in the 1840 Census they had a daughter who was between 5 and 10, and Rachel would have been about five. She was not listed with Jeremiah and Elsey in the 1850 Census, but several pages later she was found living with the family of John and Catherine Doeharty. Could Catherine have been an aunt? More likely is that Rachel had "gone into service" working for the Doeharty family.
  Residence	Abt Aug 1850	Hillsborough Township, Somerset, New Jersey, United States   [2]
  	There are two candidates that may have been Rachel Ann Ten Eyck. The first is shown living in East and West Amwell Townships, New Jersey on 30 August 1850. She was 17 and living in the household of George and Hannah Nevins. The compelling thing about this candidate is how closely she lived to Pennsylvania where Rachel Wyburn's first child was born in 1854. The second candidate was shown living in Hillsborough, Somerset, New Jersey in September, 1850. She was living 16 and living in the household of John (age 50) and Catherine (age 49) Doeharty. What's compelling about this Rachel is that her age is closer to that of the ages of Rachel as shown in the 1860 and 1870 census.

  Histories

  TEN EYCK - Rachel Ann Ten Eyck Wyburn (1833/4 - 6 Dec. 1878) Rachel Ann is one of the most elusive of our ancestors. Who were her parents? Where and when was she born? How and when did she meet Joseph D. Wyburn? Where is her grave site? This page is dedicated to Rachel; yet there is not even a picture to add some substance to our ancestor.
