pages 382 and 383
" On the passage of the American army through Scotch Plains, New Jersey, after the taking of Fort Washington, and severe losses, the soldiers were in great destitution, being without tents, blankets, shoes, or provisions, and under the utmost depression of spirits. The young wife of Mr. Osborn, who resided in the village, exerted herself with patriotic zeal to supply their wants and gave for that purpose everything eatable or wearable that her house afforded. In the following year her husband went to join the continental army, and she encouraged him to encounter the hardships and dangers of military life. Her maiden name was Mary Darby, and she was married to John B. Osborn in 1774, at the age of nineteen. Intelligent, amiable, and pious, as well as patriotic, she lived with him seventy-four years, and died peacefully only two weeks before he was called from this world. Her brother, Hon. Ezra Darby, was a member of Congress
daughter of William Darby III, b. 1732 at Scotch Plains, NJ, d. 10 November 1793 and Patience Frazee
* From Hatfield's "History of Elizabeth, NJ," p 255
" William Darbie (Sr.) was a resident of the town in 1688. April 16, of that year, the widow Agatha White sells all the lands of Richard Beach in E town, bought of him, March 31, 1688, to William Darbie of E Town. Nothing furthur is known of him. A William Darby was on of the respondants in 1752, to the E Town Bill in Chancery."
