Peter Covenhoven, or Conover, purchased land in what is now Atlantic County in 1695, between which date and 1698 he took up 150 acres in one tract, also 250 acres bounding on Great Egg Harbor River and Patconk Creek.

The founder of this family was Wolphert Garretson Van Courvenhoven, who came from Amersfoot, in the province of Utrecht, Holland, in 1630, and settled near Albany. He soon afterwards re­moved to Manhattan Island and was enrolled among the burghers of New Amsterdam, now New York. In 1636 he bought a tract of land on Long Island of the Indians, for which he received confirmation of patent from the Dutch in 1658. This tract was known as Flatlands, and here lie died in 1662. He had sons Jacob, Garret and Peter, all born in Holland, who came over with him in 1630. The son Peter, from whom descended the Conovers of Atlantic, was married three times. He first married Hester Symons Dows, De­cember 2, 1640; second Alye Sybrants, November 22, 1665; third Josyntee Thomas, May 19, 1699.

Peter Conover was settled in New Amsterdam (New York) as early as 1633. ,He engaged in mercantile pursuits with his brother Jacob, who was a miller, a considerable trade being carried on in flour, which was bolted in windmills. Jacob became embarrassed in some private speculations and Peter separated his business connections. The property of Jacob, consisting of a good stone dwelling and a mill, was sold. Peter continued his mercantile pursuits and also engaged in brewing, then a profitable business. He also held civil positions and was a magistrate in 1652-4-8-9 and 1661-3. His residence in New York was in Pearl street, near Whitehall, and his place of business at the corner of those streets. He was also a lieutenant in the military service under General Stuyvesant, and on several occasions was in service against unfriendly Indians. In 1663 the Dutch who were settled at Esopus (now Kingston), on the Hudson River, were set upon by a large band of savages. The male portion of the settlers had gone to the field to their accustomed labor, when a number of savages entered the village in a careless manner, sauntering among the inhabitants. Soon after, they sounded their war whoop and began to kill or take captive the women and children. Many of the men were also killed in the field. The total loss of the Dutch was seventy; twenty-five killed and forty-five taken captive. Twelve dwellings, being every house, were destroyed. The mill alone was left. General Stuyvesant ordered Captain Martin Kriger and Lieutenant Covenhoven to retaliate. Their company consisted of two hundred and ten men. of whom forty were friendly Indians, and they marched to Esopus late one afternoon in July. Proceeding four miles, they halted until the moon rose and then marched again, but the country being wild they could not proceed by night. The day being come, they marched forward, felling trees to cross streams, for they had wagons and a cannon. With great difficulty they proceeded twenty-four miles and came within four miles of an Indian fort, to which all the captives had been taken. Lieutenant Coven­hoven was sent forward with one hundred and sixteen men to sur­prise the fort, but the Indians had decamped to the mountains, tak­ing their captives with them. Covenhoven continued in hot pursuit and reached an Indian camp, but that too was deserted. The pur­suit was given tip after burning up the Indian stores of maize, beans and grain growing. They then marched to another fort, thirty-six miles distant, when a fight took place and several savages were killed.

Some years later Covenhoven became involved in lawsuits and his temper was soured by some adverse decisions in suits to which he was a party. As he thought these decisions unjust, he made some remarks derogatory of the character of the court, for which he was sentenced to a brief imprisonment and fined. For these reasons he left New Amsterdam in disgust, and Valentine's New York Manual says he retired to a farm which he owned at Elizabethtown, New Jersey, where he spent most of his time.

The surname of this family, originally Courvenhoven, it is said, means "cold farms." In earliest New Jersey records it is given as Corvenhoven, Covenover and Covenhoven, and about the time of the Revolution many members adopted the spelling now generally used of Conover. The descendants in old Gloucester of Peter Covenhoven have a good Revolutionary record. One Peter Covenhoven was a lieutenant, commissioned November 14, 1777; Isaac, John and Joseph were privates. Of those who gave their names as Conover, David, Jesse, Micajah, Peter and Peter B., were soldiers in that war. The family branched over into other counties, and among these Isaiah Conover was a member of the Legislature many years ago from Salem County. Another descendant named Joseph went to old Monmouth County, and was in the Legislature in 1824-26. The given names of Peter and Joseph are quite frequent among descendants of the first Peter. The name of the founder of the Conover family, Wolphert Garretson Van Courvenhoven, means Wolphert the son of Garret of Courvenhoven. Garret, the father of Wolphert, must have been born over three hundred years ago, as his grandson, Peter, was in business in New York in 1633. The Conovers have substantial claim to he considered an old family, as their known family record dates back at least three centuries.

Montgomery County SS.
Personally appeared before me the undersigned a Justice of the Peace in & for the County of Montgomery, State aforesaid, Jacob Covenhoven of the town of Canajoahrie--County & State aforesaid, whose declaration for a pension is hereto annexed & who being first duly sworn by me deposeth & saith, that, for the purpose of giving a small specific account of his revolutionary services—he was in the year 1780, a private soldier in a Militia Company commanded by Capt. Jacob Gardinier in Col. Frederick Fishers Regt when the whole company was called out upon this call this deponent with the rest of the company volunteered at Charleston in said County as early, he thinks as the first of November & were marched to Fort Plain on the Mohawk River a distance of 20 miles to guard the fort—and was then under said Capt. doing duty – They were marched after two or three weeks down the Mohawk about 17 miles to Fort Hunter another fort on the Mohawk & there performed the like duties under the same capt. until the first of December of that year as deponent thinks when they were dismissed at the latter place & returned home (both said Forts were said to be under the general command of Col. M. Willett) after having served at least one month—On the first of April 1781 as near as deponent can recollect, there was a call on Col. Fisher’s Regt. for a certain no. of soldiers for the purpose of increasing the forces of Col. Willett on the Mohawk and this deponent either enlisted or volunteered & believes he volunteered for one year from that date at a place called Tripes Hill at that time -- on the north side of the Mohawk near Johnstown in Montgomery County—Deponent was first placed under Capt. John Wemple who deponent thinks was a militia capt., but was placed under the orders of Col. Willett & formed a part of his forces—they were, shortly after being mustered, ordered to Sacondaga Fort under Capt. Wemple about 16 miles north of Johnstown as he thinks—They staid at said fort doing duty & standing sentry & guarding said fort—They [??] company at that fort at the time except Capt. Wemple after staying there 2 or 3 weeks—they were next marched by order of Col. Willett to guard Lieut. Beekman to a little fort at Stone Arabia—now Palatine in Montgomery County New York—When he had certain orders to execute they were there a few days & returned back with him to Johnstown Fort—Lieut. Beekman was at Sacondaga with us—after staying at Johnstown—deponent perfectly recollects during this year of spending a portion of his time after this at Fort Plain & Fort Hunter on the Mohawk—was one portion of the time attached to the main body of Col. Willett’s Regt. & at other—were ordered to guard the little Forts on the Mohawk—when only his Capt. or Lieut. would be with perhaps half a company—Deponent was at the Johnstown Fort in Oct of 1781—at the time of the Battle—deponent was at the fort before & after the battle about four weeks—It was a season of constant alarms—with Indians & Tories & the whole season was marked with conflagration & incendiaries—deponent’s father’s buildings were burnt to at this & all his stacks of grain & hay—deponent rode under Col. Willett, from Caughnawaga to Johnstown at the time of the Battle there—Deponent says it is stated in his declaration that he volunteered for this last season at Charleston by [?] perhaps because he had lived there but it was at Tripes hill about five miles from Charleston where he actually entered the service--& was mustered with Capt. Wemple’s company – deponent says that he continued in actual service this year under said Capt. until the first of December of that year--& there was excused because there seemed to be no actual service for the soldiers to perform for the remainder of the year at Fort Hunter & returned home to remain as minute men subject to calls as occasion & [?] region during the winter—Deponent still thinks that he was discharged at Fort Hunter in April 1782—as stated in his declaration but cannot on account of his loss of memory reconcile it to his mind how nor by what means he was called there in the spring as he is confident he did either on furlough or on being excused as aforesaid, then a part of the winter of 1781-2 at home and that he now on having the subject fully explained to him – cannot say that he served in the period last aforesaid a continued period of more than eight months—and that for that period at least he thinks he did served & has no doubt of it—Deponent says in planting time & he thinks about the middle of May he was called on & volunteered in Capt. Quackenboss’ Company in Col. Vedder’s Regt of Militia but were placed under the general command of Col. Willett & Levies it was it was inserted in his declaration that it was in Col. Willett’s Regt. in 1782 & were ordered & marched to a little Picket Fort Called by the soldiers Fort Vedder—on the Mohawk opposite Johnstown were also marched to Fort Hunter on this occasion he was in service at least 3 weeks from the time he left home until they were discharged & returned home—Their Lieut. on this occasion was Abraham Conyne—deponent says it was proverbial that Col. Willett commanded on the Mohawk--& when he answered when he was asked what field officers commanded him—he answered it was Col. Willett because all orders at that time & the officer at the fort seemed to come from him as he then & that supposed –along—on the Mohawk Deponent volunteered at Tripes Hill & was discharged at Fort Hunter in this last service of three weeks.
Deponent says also that he volunteered on a call for militia under Capt. Peter Conyne at Tripes Hill aforesaid about the middle of May 1780 at all events it was in planting time & he was marched by the said Capt.—to Sacondaga Fort with about 15 soldiers to guard said fort. The fort was fired at by the Indians at this time. The soldiers killed two of the Indians as they were setting round the fire in the woods—Deponent was on duty at said fort at this time at least two weeks & was discharged at said fort about the first of June 1780—as he thinks—was about 16 days from home—The deponent was called out on another occasion (among many) when it was rumored a spy was harbored by the name of Wallis at the house of one Peter Bowen—Deponent with about 15 others under a Lieut. Fonda took the spy & delivered him up at the fort at Johnstown. Deponent was out on this occasion 3 days—deponent’s other services were as stated in his said declaration which on account of his loss of memory he cannot specify by way of giving dates—Deponent saith also that by reason of old age & consequent loss of memory he cannot swear positively as to the precise length of his service but according to the best of his recollection he served not less in the periods above specified than then months & ten days as a private & for the time he claims a pension—that he served all the above times in an organized corps—commanded by competent authority. That he was all the time in the field in garrison or marching under orders & that for the time during which the above specified services were performed he was employed in no civil pursuit. Deponent says that the place which he called Tripes Hill is a local name given to what is now Johnstown in Montgomery County N. York. Deponent in answer to interrogations put him—says it appears by a record of his age found where he made the original declaration hereto annexed—he was born in Princeton, N. Jersey—in the year 1753—That he has no record of his age now in his possession was living in Charleston aforesaid when called into service & has since lived since the Revolution in the county & now lives in Canajoharie Mont. Co. N.Y and was uniformly a private & entered the service by volunteering in obedience to calls for militia men—except the 7b months served he was under field officers in the state service but understood his captain to be militia officer—Does not recollect any officers except the names of those given in his declaration. Does not recollect that he had any written discharge.
