Quick-Garretson family papers, 1745-1904 1765-1867.

This collection contains the papers of various members of the Quick-Garretson Family, spanning the years 1745 to 1904. The bulk of the papers possibly belonged to Abraham Quick, who acted as Executor for the estates of various deceased individuals, both within his family and for others that resided within his native Franklin Township in Somerset County, New Jersey. Most of these papers are documents pertaining to the settlement of the estates of Jacob Bergen, Isaac Brooks, Elbert Dumont, Nicholas Lake, John Van Dyke, and others. Quick's papers date from about 1750 to 1825. Later papers mostly belong to the Garretson Family, with the bulk of the papers attributed to John Garretson, an attorney who had offices in Jersey City, New Jersey. Also included in the collection are legal records signed by Abraham Blauvelt, Theodore Frelinghuysen, Richard Howell, William Paterson (1745-1806), and Richard Stockton (1764-1828).
