John Ayres is noted for donating 1 ½ acres which included the land on which a log meeting house stood in 1730 but it was said that the meeting house had probably been there since at least 1725 (the BRPC states 1717).
A document was found dated February 8, 1731 formally recognizing the donation of a “meeting house.” Basking Ridge was the first religious center in the area. It’s been noted that in addition to being a house of prayer, education was key as well and there’s mention of schooling
there as early as 1720-1725. John died Oct. 4, 1732 at the age of 69 yet no one knows where he’s buried. His son John Ayers is buried in the BRPC graveyard.
John’s son Obadiah Ayres purchased 153 acres from John Alexander. It’s stated he later leaves for Warren County in Hacketstown sometime before 1753.

I did this at a painting with a twist in 2016 before my 8-year younger sis got married. I have never seen this tree until my research began in 2017and then it was almost 2018 before I was connecting more of the dots and got to this tree. lm not crazy ok but the tree in my
painting and this tree seem similar. My 8th Great Grand-Parents were buried under the tree originally...

The Duke or Earl of Argyll, although a Campbell, was always called MacCallum More, hence the derivation of the surname McCollom. Archibald was the grandson, and perhaps the namesake of, the 9th Earl of Argyll. More was derived from Mhor, Gaelic for big or great and having
reference to positions of prominence.
