Who were the parents of Stephen Hart, b. circa 1782? He married Elizabeth Hollister in Kingswood, Near Wotton-Under-Edge in what was then Wiltshire, England, but is now Gloucestershire. They named their first son Cornelius, a decidedly Irish name, and another son Samuel Cornelius. Was there a Cornelius in the family line? Have not found one on the Hollister side. Perhaps that name is the clue. Children: Cornelius b. 3 Aug 1815 Ann b. 1817(?) Samuel b. 31 May 1819 John b. 12 Jan 1822 James b. 19 Mar 1824 Caroline b. Oct 1826 Samuel Cornelius b. 1 May 1828 James b. 12 Dec 1831 David b. 11 Nov 1833(?) Joseph b. 18 May 1836 If you have any information at all about either this couple or Stephen's birthplace or parents, please respond to [email protected] Thank you. -- "Age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill." - Anonymous
