Note-Two Branches of the Van Riper family claim Saddle River Township
as their residence. Jeremiah Van Riper resided on the Passaic River,
above the Dundee Bridge (Garfield), and early purchased land of a very old resident,
named Van Horn. His sons were Simeon, Stephen, and Nicholas(above census),
all of whom remained in the Township. The latter branch is represented by

information writen around 1890 by Clayton’s “History of Bergen & Passaic County” ).

and is the earliest representive of another family of the name in the Township. among
