Notes for ROBERT OGDEN II:
[Tyler, William Seymour D.D.,LL.D. with genealogy history written by Cornelius B. Tyler, Autobiography of W S Tyler, DD,LLD, (Privately Printed, Massachusetts, 1912), pages 313 and 314.]
"At the time of the stamp act Mr. Ogden was Speaker of the New Jersey Assembly and 'on his own authority' reconvened it in order to compel an attendance at the first Congress of the American Colonies at New York, October 7, 1765. This Congress agreed upon a declaration of rights to be sent to the King and Parliament. Timothy Ruggles of Mass., Speaker of the Congress and Mr. Ogden in opposition to the majority thought that greater effect would be gained by sending separate addresses from each of the Colonies, and therefore they refused to sign, as Mr. Ogden explained afterward, New Jersey would still 'be at liberty to make a separate application to the Crown.' But his attitude was so misunderstood that he resigned his position as Speaker. "Had Robert Ogden not thought and acted as he did, however, no doubt he would have represented his state in the National Congress, whose members signed the Declaration of Independence." In 1776 he was Chairman of the Elizabethtown Committee of Safety, and in January, 1776, was active in the capture of the British Store ship 'The Blue Mountain Valley,' his account of which to the President of Congress is in the American Archives, 4 Serv. Vol. 4, p. 987."
