James Hans Dey and his half-brother John Laurens Dey were born in Staten Island, New York. Perth Amboy, New Jersey, across the river from Staten Island, is on the Pennsylvania Railroad. South from Perth Amboy, the railroad goes through a number of stations including South Amboy in the northern part of the county. John Laurens Dey purchased a farm near Cranbury, Middlesex County, New Jersey in about 1725. Cranbury Station is on the Penn Railroad near the southern end of the county. Cranbury was a few miles to the west, near the edge of the image. Matchaponix, New Jersey, is seven miles due east of Cranbury, New Jersey. Thus, the two half- brothers lived a short distance from each other during the later parts of their lives.
