THE PEGGY WARNE CHAPTER: NATIONAL SOCIETY OF DAUGHTERS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLTION in Phillipsburg, New Jersey is named in her honor. Margaret "Peggy" (Vliet) Warne was born on October 10, 1746 in Six Mile Run, Somerset County, NJ. Her birthname was Margrietje Vliet. *Six Mile Run is now part of Franklin Township, NJ. Peggy (Vliet) Warne was baptized at the Six Mile Run Dutch Reformed Church. She was the daughter Daniel and Gertruitje (Springsteen) Vliet. Daniel Vliet and Gertruitje Springsteen were married on November 16, 1746 on Long Island, New York at the Flatbush Dutch Reformed Church. Daniel Vliet and his wife were both descendants of Dutch families who emigrated to Flatbush from Holland in the mid 1600's. Peggy Vliet Warne was the only daughter of Daniel and Gertruitje Springsteen Vliet. Her seven brothers were as follows: Garret, John, David, Daniel, William, Abraham and Jasper. At least five of her brothers served in some capacity in her father's company during the American Revolution. Her father, Daniel Vliet, was a captain in General Willaim Maxwell's N.J. regiment. Her brother, Garret Vliet, served as a drummer boy in his father's regiment. Garret Vliet achieved the rank of Major General during his military career. He is buried with his father in the Vliet Family Burying Ground in West Portal, Hunterdon County, NJ.In 1755, the Captain Daniel Vliet Family purchased and settled on a plantation in Jugtown (now West Portal), Hunterdon County, NJ. The original farmstead and burying ground is located along County Route 173. The farm adjoins the Creveling-Hagaman Farmstead. The Hagaman and Vliet families were also neighbors in Six Mile Run, NJ and Flatbush, NY. Captain Daniel Vliet's deed to nearly 330 acres in Bethlehem and Greenwich had been destroyed or carried away by the British Army in 1776 or 1777. In May 1788 the Supreme Court of New Jersey ruled in favor of Vliet and accepted a survey as a sufficient substitute for his lost deed. Peter Williamson and Thomas Peterson were instrumental in this process: Peter Williamson, of Greenwich, Sussex County, on 15 September 1785 at a Supreme Court held at Trenton deposed before David Brearley, Chief Justice, that he is well acquainted with the tract of Daniel Vliet which the applicant bought of Abraham Hains late of Burlington County and which he has been in peaceable
possession of for upwards of thirty years. He, this deponent, saw Andrew Johnson, who has since died, sometime before 1776 deliver the deed to William Hawling, late of Burlington County, to have it proved. Thomas Peterson, of Greenwich, Sussex County on 22 September 1785 deposed... The land was divided by the Musconetcong River which was also a boundary between the two counties. The land was also traversed on each side of the River by a road, later being called by [Deputy George] Armstrong a "great road." (Thomas B. Wilson, "Lost Deeds," GMNJ, [64:2]; [May 1989]).

THE PEGGY WARNE CHAPTER: NATIONAL SOCIETY OF DAUGHTERS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLTION in Phillipsburg, New Jersey is named in her honor. Margaret "Peggy" (Vliet) Warne was born on October 10, 1746 in Six Mile Run, Somerset County, NJ. Her birthname was Margrietje Vliet. *Six Mile Run is now part of Franklin Township, NJ. Peggy (Vliet) Warne was baptized at the Six Mile Run Dutch Reformed Church. She was the daughter Daniel and Gertruitje (Springsteen) Vliet. Daniel Vliet and Gertruitje Springsteen were married on November 16, 1746 on Long Island, New York at the Flatbush Dutch Reformed Church. Daniel Vliet and his wife were both descendants of Dutch families who emigrated to Flatbush from Holland in the mid 1600's. Peggy Vliet Warne was the only daughter of Daniel and Gertruitje Springsteen Vliet. Her seven brothers were as follows: Garret, John, David, Daniel, William, Abraham and Jasper. At least five of her brothers served in some capacity in her father's company during the American Revolution. Her father, Daniel Vliet, was a captain in General Willaim Maxwell's N.J. regiment. Her brother, Garret Vliet, served as a drummer boy in his father's regiment. Garret Vliet achieved the rank of Major General during his military career. He is buried with his father in the Vliet Family Burying Ground in West Portal, Hunterdon County, NJ.In 1755, the Captain Daniel Vliet Family purchased and settled on a plantation in Jugtown (now West Portal), Hunterdon County, NJ. The original farmstead and burying ground is located along County Route 173. The farm adjoins the Creveling-Hagaman Farmstead. The Hagaman and Vliet families were also neighbors in Six Mile Run, NJ and Flatbush, NY. Captain Daniel Vliet's deed to nearly 330 acres in Bethlehem and Greenwich had been destroyed or carried away by the British Army in 1776 or 1777. In May 1788 the Supreme Court of New Jersey ruled in favor of Vliet and accepted a survey as a sufficient substitute for his lost deed. Peter Williamson and Thomas Peterson were instrumental in this process: Peter Williamson, of Greenwich, Sussex County, on 15 September 1785 at a Supreme Court held at Trenton deposed before David Brearley, Chief Justice, that he is well acquainted with the tract of Daniel Vliet which the applicant bought of Abraham Hains late of Burlington County and which he has been in peaceable
possession of for upwards of thirty years. He, this deponent, saw Andrew Johnson, who has since died, sometime before 1776 deliver the deed to William Hawling, late of Burlington County, to have it proved. Thomas Peterson, of Greenwich, Sussex County on 22 September 1785 deposed... The land was divided by the Musconetcong River which was also a boundary between the two counties. The land was also traversed on each side of the River by a road, later being called by [Deputy George] Armstrong a "great road." (Thomas B. Wilson, "Lost Deeds," GMNJ, [64:2]; [May 1989]).
