 November 27th 1766 John OGDEN and Uzal OGDEN of Newark mortgaged to Thomas PENNINGTON and Ferdinand PENNINGTON, of Bristol, England, several tracts in the counties of Bergen and Morris, and among the rest a tract at Bloomingdale partly in Morris and partly in Bergen, conveyed to them in two lots--one, containing 137.64 acres, by Philip SCHUYLER and wife, August 1st1759; the other, containing 34 acres, by Guilliam BATOLF, October 1765.It is altogether probable that on this tract the furnace stood and that the deeds to the Ogdens indicate when it was built.After the sale in 1764 to the London Company by the Ogdens we meet frequently with their names in the history of the iron business of Morris county.
