One of their sons, Jonathan Stout (1660 - 1722), moved westward and helped establish the town of Hopewell, in Hunterdon Co., New Jersey. Several generations of Stouts followed in the Hopewell area, some of whom founded and were associated with the Hopewell Baptist Church and meeting place. The church building, established in 1715 and rebuilt in 1822, still stands as a historical site in Hopewell. (wdgordon.com, Stout Family History,)
Jonathan and Anna lived on a farm at Hopewell, south of Amwell township. Together with Nathan Drake, John Hart, and the Bowne Family, Jonathan helped establish the Baptist Church of Hopewell. For forty-one years the meetings were held at the home of Jonathan or at that of one of his children, before a meetinghouse was built in the early 1700's.
