This Fred David Vorhees does NOT go back to Abraham and Alice Voorhees. They did have a Fred R. born in 1867 also but Frederick David was my great grandmother’s brother and he belongs to simon Peter Voorhees and Margaret Hageman. Simon Peter’s father was John Simonson Voorhees and Phebe Tunison. Many people get the John Simonson Voorhees and the John Stryker Voorhees lines mixed up because they both came to Fairview, Illinois. they do all go back to Coert Van Voorhees however.

My primary interest is trying to identify the father of Alvin Knickerbocker who lived in the Smithville/Lisle area in the 1840’s and 50’s.
