Cornelius Doremus (d.ca. 1715) was a son of Hendrick Doremus (Hendrick had emigrated from France to Holland). Cornelius Doremus married Janneke Joris in 1675, and immigrated between 1684 and 1687 from Middelburg, Holland to Bergen, New Jersey. By 1708 Cornelius purchased an extensive farm in Wesel (now Paterson), Passiac County, New Jersey. Descendants and relatives lived in New Jersey, New York, Maryland, Virginia and elsewhere. Some descendants became Mormons and moved to Illinois, Utah and elsewhere.
