His family grew to become prominent community leaders with a thriving farming operation of nearly 500 acres. As years of colonial grievances with Great Britain spawned growing calls for rebellion, the population of New Jersey was deeply divided. Christoffel and his son John, both staunch Loyalists, would soon find themselves on a collision course with their neighbor Thomas Jones, a prominent Patriot leader.In December 1776, Christoffel and John Vought led a party of Hunterdon Loyalists on a daring journey through rebel assaults to reach British forces stationed at New Brunswick. John Vought donned the distinctive green uniform of the New Jersey Volunteers and fought against American independence.David Overaker, Board President of the 1759 Vought House, will tell the fascinating story of the Vought family from their arrival in the colony of New Jersey in 1710 through their Loyalist activities during the American Revolution and their fate after the war.
