Biography of GARRET AUGUSTUS HOBART

 
After graduation from Rutgers College, Garret Augustus Hobart (1844-1899) began the study of law in Paterson, New Jersey, under Socrates Tuttle, who had served two terms in the State Legislature. Garret was licensed in 1866 to practice law, and three years later married his mentor's daughter Jennie Tuttle. Hobart's rise in his profession and in the business world was rapid: he became the director of several banks and at one time was connected with sixty corporations.

In 1872 Hobart became a member of the New Jersey Assembly and, at age thirty, its Speaker. In 1876 he was elected to the State Senate, and reelected in 1879, and served in 1881 and 1882 as its president. From 1876 until 1896 Hobart attended Republican National Conventions where he made many friends and admirers. Hobart's advocacy of a gold monetary standard helped to bring him to a place on the ticket headed by William McKinley in 1896. The Hobarts leased a fine house on Lafayette Square near the White House, where they enjoyed entertaining and developed a close friendship with the president and his invalid wife. Garret Hobart was stricken in the summer of 1899 with a heart attack which lead to his death in November of that year.

       Joel Munsell, 1878.  p. 104-106), the parents of Teunis Vanderveer are
       given as Dominicus Vanderveer and Maria Margaret Nordtlyke.  If the Dutch
       system of naming children was used to name the children of Teunis, it
       would be expected that one son would be named Dominicus and one daughter
       (if they had at least two) would be named Maria.  But Teunis did not give
       any of his children these names.  Instead we find the names John and
       Phoebe where we would expect to see Dominicus and Maria leading to the
       speculation that the parents of Teunis Vanderveer were really Jan
       Corneliszen Vanderveer and Femmetje Bergen (Femmetje being Dutch for
       Phoebe).
