There's a lot there. Also with so much intermarrying among related families in that "Piscataway" area, like Fitz-Randolph, looking at those other families yields a lot.
I just started looking myself within the last 2 months (new hobby). Other families in the area to look at (first settlers in "Piscataway" which encompasses a far larger area than the modern town) are Martin, Drake, Dunn, Manning, Pyatt, Hull, Dunham (be careful here as there are separate "Dunham" progenitors), and Bonham.
Many were Baptists. Specifically some were "Seventh Day" Baptists and so histories of that church, and migrations and contacts elsewhere (like to West Va) can yield info.
We can share what we find. - Lee
