"The migration of Swedish and Finnish families from New Castle County across the Delaware River to Penn's Neck in Salem County began in 1671. By the time of the 1693 census, the Crane Hook church could count 130 members living on "the other side" of the Delaware. Penn's Neck was bounded by the Delaware River on the west and extended from Oldmans Creek on the north to Salem Creek on the south. The eastern boundary was also Salem Creek to its northern bend, then extending overland northeast to Oldmans Creek. It derived its name from the fact that William Penn, proprietor of Pennsylvania, also acquired proprietorship of this area in 1683 from its first English claimant, John Fenwick.' The church census identifies the households in Penn's Neck beginning at its northernmost settlement. One Tree Hook, also known as Lone Tree Hook, Singletree Hook or Eenboom Hook, is named Oldmans Point on current maps and is located on the Delaware to the north of Penns Grove. It was purchased from the Indians on 10 June 1675 by John Hendricksson and his eldest son, Peter Hendricksson ...Stewart, Indians of Soutltem New Jersey, 74

Born in Sweden, John Hendricksson appears to have come to America in 1648 on the Swan with his father, Hendrick Johansson. [he signed the 1654 loyalty oath to Governor Rising as an "old freeman].By 1663, John had joined the Nils Nilsson family at Verdrietige Hook (Bochten). In 1669, when fined 300 guilders for his involvement in the Long Finn Rebellion, John Hendricksson was a resident of Marcus Hook. At the time the Marcus Hook land (400 acres) was surveyed in 1675, John Hendricksson had already given his interest to Peter Hendricksson. Both, however, were taxed as residents of One Tree Hook in 1677." Dm, 123; NWM, 20:s-6, 23, 87b, 101 (#I); 21:104, Wharton, 59-62; Smith, 521-22; NCR, 1:16
In 1684, after William Penn acquired Penn's Neck, the land at One Tree Hook was surveyed and patents issued. The 400 acres belonging to John Hendricksson extended south of a little creek called Horse Creek. NJA, 21:644; Early Salem County surveys, Salem County Historical Society [SCHS] Mn4Q:58, 83.
In 1693 his household of six undoubtedly included his youngest son, Anders Hendricksson, and probably part of the family of Peter Hendricksson Bilderback. His other known children were David Hendricksson Bilderback .., John Hendricksson, Jr. .., and Brita, the wife of Isaac Savoy ... John Hendricksson "at the Lone Tree" pledged money for Holy Trinity Church and was among its original pew hodlders in 1699. He was probably over 80 years old when buried at the new Penn's Neck church on 8 October 1717." Burr, 44, 47, 63; HTR, 1:30, 32, 45; RPN; 325
