Notes for Jean Corliez:\ Those who were well effected to our Church to not be brought to look upon DeCorlies but as the descendent of the renowned Regenald DeCorlies who so nobly and faithfully preached the Cross at the second Crusade and was standard-bearer of the Brabaut Knights at the Siege of Jerusalem. That the descendents of him whose very armorial bearings denote that he had fixed his "Holey Cross upon the Rock of Zion" surrounding it by the "Emblem of eternity," should desert the faith for which his illustrious ancestor had devoted a holy and unstained life, was more than the people could be brought to believe. "But this cruel fact was too plainly shown to the citizens of Liege? by his precipitate flight with his wife and two sons, and taking refuge in that land of heretics, England.On the 25th of Feb. 1641, Jean Count DeCorlies, was summoned to appear before the Grand Council, then sitting at Ghent, to answer for the aid he had given to the enemies of God's Church; when instead of appearing and defending himself, he declared his comformity to the heretical doctrines and fled, thus leading too many to the loss of their eternal souls thru his example. John Fuller in his tr?ck called "Sacrifices made to God-this truth" published in 1654, names the Count DeCorlies as among the Illustrious of the reformers of that time.The name has been variously spelled in England Corilesse, Corlas, Corlies, in the records of the Suffolk, where they appear to have settled after leaving Belgium. The "LeBlazon Universelle de la Belgique", the arms of the family of Corlies are the same as the sketch on the opposite page( I did not get the sketch) with two molues as supporters; one gold, the other black, each holding a tilting spear, red with pennons-on the dexter side blue, on the sinister red, each charged with a cross (gold) issuing from a cresc3nt argent, the ends of the pennons returning towards the arms and the motto, "Sub cruce, spes mea. " Helmet front faced.

For some years there had been an effort to increse the population and inprove the commerce of Perth Amboy, and various inducements were resorted to in the hope of securing new settlers, and it may that William Corlies decided to take up a residence in what it was hoped would be the progressive capital of the Province. In 1738 it was stated that " planters had not resorted to it as was expected, not withstanding its commodine, situation and there is no evidence that William Corlies left, even temporarily, his Shrewsbury home for Perth Amboy. It is possible, however, that shortly before his death he removed to Burlington County, as the inventory of his effects is filed in that county. He died intestate in April 1754, leaving a considerable estate, both real and personal, to which his son, William Corlies, was appointed administator, April 19, 1754 *2 In addition to the usual household equipment, "linen, silver, ewter, bible, sword, " etc. his inventory exhibits a number of notes and bonds due to the deceased.

Notes for WILLIAM CORLIS/CORLISS/CURLESS: From Annals of the Sinnott,Rogers,Coffin,Corlies,Reeves,Bodine, and Allied Families by Mary Elizabeth Sinnott edited by Josiah Grandville Leach, LL.B. Printed for private circulation by J.B. Lippincott Company Philadelphia . William Corlies (William, George) purchased on 16 September 1740 from William Day a tract of free land including eight acres of meadow, in the township of upper Freehold, and this be conveyed as William Corlies, Junr, of upper Freehold, to Joseph Cheesman, 3.Aug.1745. He served on the Grand Jury of the county at the April Court, 1746, and was at that time allowed a license of privileged to keep ahouse of entertainment for trabellers. The settlement of his father's estate, in 1754-56, involved him in considerabel litegation with the Brinley and Wests, which may have been a factor in turning his thoughts to a home in the adjoining county of Burlington, where on Jan. 1. 1757, he leased for the turm of six years, from Jacob Warwick, a plantation located partly in Springfield and partly in New Hanover township. The contract for this leasehold bears the signature of William Corlies, and also that of John Woolman, the quaker diarist and preacher,whose literary style was so highly commended by Charles Lamb. From this time until his death, Mr. Corlies resided in Burlington County, interested in cultivation of his rapidly increasing acres, and in conducting the well known Red Lion Tavern, on the post road between Medford and Vincetown. A generous hospitality and the maintanence of a large family brought him in the evening of life into embarassed financial circumstances. Believing however that his estate if properly administered, was sufficient to meet all obligations, and to provide a proper livelihood for himself and his family, he executed the following power of attorney to Job Jones, of Northhampton, 12 September 1805: Whereas the said William Corlies being in advanced years, by reason whereof he is in a great measure incapable of Transacting his business and concernes, and the same William Corlies being indebted unto divers persons in considerable sums of money, and some of his creditors having obtained Judgements and executions which are now unstaisfied in the hands of the sheriff of Burlington County, and levied on the estate real and personal of the said William Corlies. And the same William Corlies being desirous that all his debts, should be fully paid and satisfied and believing that he is now seized and possessed of property sufficient (if disposed of to the best advantage) to pay all his debts and leave to him and his family in his advanced years a comfortable suport. But is his said property now being asvertised for sale by the sheriff and if sold by him, in all porvavility a great sacrifice will be made therein, and in order that all my estate real and personal (or so much thereof as will raise a sufficient fund to pay off and discharge all my debts) be speedily sold to the best advantage. Be it known that I the said William Corlies, for divers good causes and valuable consideration we here unto speedily moving have and these presents do nominate constitue and appoint my trusty friend Job Jones of Northhampton my true and lawful attorney to dispose of in my name with all possible speed, all or so much of my estate real and personal (except one hundred acre I have sold to William Irick including the Mansion house and West of place) for the best price that can be gotten for the same, as will enable my said attorney to pay off and discharge all my just debts This document was signed by the wife, Ann Corlies, who renounced her dower rights. Three months later Dec. 13. 1805, Mr Corlies released to John Jenkins his plantation commonly known as "The Red Lion Tavern" situated in the township of Northhampton and containg two hundred and nineteen acres. The date of William Corlies death is uncertain, but it was doubtless shortly after the execution of the above release. In November 1820, Samuel Sykes petitioned the Orphans Court of Burlington County for the settlement of the estate of William Corlies, and set forth that the deceased had left children William, Joseph, John, Abiah, Asher, Samuel, Ann Robinson, Jerusha Glody, Sarah Brown, Lucy Mills, Rebecca Hedger, and Mary Bodine, and that since the decease of William Corlies the eldest of his children, William, Joseph, Abiah, and Jerusha, had also deceased, each leaving children, and that Asher and Sarah had already conveyed their part of said deceased's estate to the petitioner, Samuel Sykes. The court ordered that the desired division should be made by John Warren, Esqr. Joshua S. Earl, and Joseph Shinn * Burlington County Deeda, Liber M, Folio 744 ** Minutes of the Orphans Court of Burlington County, Liber 5, Folio 87.
