The Dilts family in Hunterdon County is abundant and always has been. However, I have not been able to attach William Dilts of Sandy Ridge to the larger Dilts family. His list of descendants will stand on its own until I can link him with the other Hunterdon County Dilts family.
One of the earliest Dilts in New Jersey was Wilhelm Dils, who died in Knowlton, Sussex County in 1794, age 83. His wife Rachel died in 1793, age 72. Other early settlers were Johann Wilhelm Dils and Henrich Dils who were present in Lebanon Township in the 1730s.
Larison or Larason. It all depends. There doesn’t seem to be too much of a hard and fast rule. And as often happens with other names having alternate spellings, the same person would sometimes use both spellings, or else a clerk would make his own choice of spelling. I tend to use the spelling most commonly used by each individual.
