Daniel WRISBERG is mentioned in the lease with John Jacob FAESCH as one of the parties of the second part for Mount Hope, dated Feb. 23, 1873, Col. Jacob FORD being the party of the first part. WRISBERG probably came with FAESCH from Germany, and was a man with considerable means and invested with FAESCH in the iron business. As his name is not mentioned in any connection after this date he probably died soon after and tradition relates that he left 100 pounds to the Rockaway church with a provision that he was to be buried under the pulpit of the church. As there are no church records of this date, it is more than probable that the provisions were compiled with, and we would place the date of death and burial 1773. If there are any historical facts, other than tradition, relating to the same we should be pleased to know them.
