About William Denman

"Family of John Denman and Mary Gano.

"Their children were Martha, Mary, Elizabeth, John, William, Philip and Thomas.

The date of birth in case of the daughters is not given.

"John was born in 1700, William in 1702, Philip in 1704, and Thomas in 1706 or 7.

"John bought a farm of 100 acres at Westfield, Essex Co., N.J., in 1720 and settled there. The farm continued in the possession of his children for several generations, the portion of it occupied by the original home being still the home of a Denman [as of 1913], although very little of the original house can be found in the present one.

"William settled at Elizabethtown, where he married Abby [Unknown], and died in 1751, leaving no record of any family.

"Philip and Thomas both settled at Springfield, also in Essex Co."

Denman Family History, by Harriet Newell Harris (1913)

There is record of this William having a widow "Lydia". I'll try to keep a look out for more information with regard to his family. I attached my source for his wife to his profile, under Media.
