Jonathan Holmes. Jr., was so called to distinguish him from his uncle, Jonathan Holmes. Sr., and Jonathan Holmes, minor. Jonathan Holmes. Jr., made his will Sept. 6, 1766; it was proved Nov. 2, 1768, and recorded at Trenton in Book K of Wills, p. 264. The witnesses are Obadiah Holmes, Obadiah Holmes, Jr., and Asher Holmes. He describes himself as "I. Jonathan Holmes, Jr., of Freehold township." He devises all his real estate to his sons, William and James, (baptized Jacobus). He also mentions sons Jonathan, John, Daniel, Samel, and children of his son Joseph, deceased. His daughters named in this will were Alice VanBrakle, Catherine Schenck, and Mary. Obadiah Holmes, the father of Jonathan Holmes, Jr., was the eldest son of Jonathan Holmes and Sarah Borden, his wife, and was born July 17, 1666, at Gravesend, on Long Island. They were probably staying with Capt. John Bowne who lived there, and who had married Lydia Holmes, a daughter of Rev. Obadiah. The settlement at Middletown in Monmouth county was being effected, and Jonathan Holmes, with his family, remained at Gravesend until his dwelling-house could be built and made ready for occupation. The next year, 1667, we find this Jonathan Holmes among the first officers elected in the township of Middletown.
