- In addition to his original material Mr. Muchmore's papers contained many excerpts from published books. His notes showed, however, that he disagreed in several instances with the conclusions of others. He felt that Cornelius, the son of Peter, married and became the progenitor of the Galloway, N.J., Conovers through a son Peter who married Mary ____ and who, in turn, was the South Jersey settler. Supporting this view are the stories told by living descendants which place them in a generation one short of those of proven descendants of the two other sons of pioneer Wolphert. However, no definite proof as to the existence of Cornelius has been found to sustain Mr. Muchmore's theory and most researchers now believe that it was Peter who emigrated to Gloucester county, New Jersey.
