John Hendrickson is reckoned to be among a large number of Dutch families who left New Jersey abt. 1750 to form a new comunity in Rowan County, North Carolina later to be known as the "Jersey Settlement". The area lies near the Yadkin River opposite Salisbury. Early families came there from Hunterton County and other New Jersey areas where scores of lawfully acquired land holdings of early settlers were invalidated by the courts of the British Crown. The history of this historic land manipulation which prompted the migration to Rowan County, North Carolina by early Dutch, Quaker, and Presbyterian families is well outlined by Ethel Stroup in "First Families of Jersey Settlement". John Hendrickson appears there as a witness in the Rowan County commnity in 1786.
