Misc. Notes
4. MICHAEL, b. about 1721 (at Perth Amboy); m. Sarah (???), He purchased, June 13, 1746, of George Leslie, of Perth Amboy, a farm of 209 acres in Bedminster twsp., Somerset co., adjoining "Alamitunk" river, and between lands owned by Moses Craig and Andrew Hamilton (evidently north of Vliet's mills). In 1756 he subscribed to the building of the Lutheran church at Pluckemin, his name being entered as "Michael Henary." (It is possible, but not probable, his father made the purchase and subscriptions above stated).

In the meantime, April, 1752, Michael was deeded by his father 166 2/3 acres in Greenwich twsp., Sussex (now Warren) co., which he sold, June 13, 1759, to Benjamin McCullough, who had married Hannah, widow of Michael's brother William. (See Sussex Deeds, Liber A, p. 45). We have no further trace of him, except that, in his father's will, Michael, Jr., is stated to have had a son John. He was not in the tax list of Bedminster twsp. in 1787, and we believe he left New Jersey prior to that date for Pennsylvania or New York. We do find in the Pennsylvania Census of 1790 a "Michael Henery" in York co., with a wife and three children, two being under sixteen, and it may be he went thither with other known Somerset families. It would be interesting to determine what became of this family.
