FRELINGHUYSEN, THEODORE [1787-1862]

Theodore Frelinghuysen was the second U.S. Senator in the famous New Jersey Frelinghuysen political dynasty that began with U.S. Senator and Major General Frederick Frelinghuysen [1753-1804], Theodore’s father. Although Theodore can not claim the fame his father received from his battlefield exploits, he had quite an interesting national political and educational career himself.

Theodore Frelinghuysen was born on March 28, 1787 in Millstone, Franklin Township, New Jersey. His parents were Frederick Frelinghuysen [1753-1804] and Gertrude Schenck. His siblings were Catherine Frelinghuysen, John Frelinghuysen [1776-1843], a General who married Louisa Mercer, and after her death married Elizabeth Mercereau Van Vechten, Maria Frelinghuysen, and Frederick Frelinghuysen...............
