Gordons Corner was probably named for Charles Gordon or his brother, Peter. The road now runs past the Old Scots cemetery.

Most graves here never had permanent markers and are unmarked to this day. Charles and Lydia Gordon are almost certainly among them.

John Hampton was the father of Charles Gordon's wife, Lydia. He had connections with the Barclays as overseer of their East Jersey holdings.
