My maternal 6th-great granduncle, John GROENENDYKE, married on this date in 1797 in New Brunswick, Middlesex County, New Jersey to Lucretia DeRAPALJE. John was the son of Johannes and Sarah Ann (LAKE) GROENENDYKE, and the younger brother of my Nicholas GROENENDYKE. John was born June 5, 1756 in Kingston, Middlesex County, New Jersey. I do not have dates of birth or death for Lucretia. John died November 1, 1824 in Eugene Township, Vermillion County, Indiana.

Ellen (KING) WRIGHT (1868-1913) was my maternal 2nd-great grandmother. I have not been able to yet trace the origins of the KING line back to the old country.
The following facts about Ellen's life are known:
- Birth: She was born August 24, 1868 in Frankton, Madison County, Indiana, the daughter of Daniel and Elizabeth (SHAW) KING.
- Census: 1870 - She appears in the Daniel KING household in Monroe Township, Madison County, Indiana.
- Census: 1880 - She appears in the William COCHRAN household in Monroe Township, Madison County, Indiana.
- Marriage: She married John William WRIGHT on May 13, 1888 in Madison County, Indiana.
- Census:1900 - She appears in the John W. WRIGHT household in Monroe Township, Madison County, Indiana.
- Census: 1910 - She appears in the John W. WRIGHT household in Monroe Township, Madison County, Indiana.
- Death: She died December 24, 1913 in Monroe Township, Madison County, Indiana. Cause of death: mitral regurgitation
- Obituary: Her obituary appeared December 26, 1913 in the Alexandria Times-Tribune
- Burial: She is buried in the I.O.O.F. cemetery in Alexandria, Madison County, Indiana.
The following facts need further research and/or documentation to complete my research:
- Children: The 1910 census indicated that she was the mother of 4 children, with only 2 living. Need to try to identify names and birth/death dates of these other infants.
- Obituary: Need to seek out obituaries printed in other local papers (Anderson, Elwood, etc.)
