It was talking about them as living in Gloucester Co. NJ. That is a new one on me. It was written In the sense that Col John READING was talking about a John MILLS and a Mr. BEATTY who were given to go and either make a purchase or do a survey of 500,000 acres. I cannot recall if it said where. At any rate, it went on to mention that a MILLS and another man, we his sons-in-law. I did not get the impression it was of William MILLS who married Mary READING, but perhaps an earlier generation? I did not write down, as I was in a hurry as usual, and exited the page, and will have to go back and get the web site address of where I found it. Do you possibly have any inkling of which family MILLS that the John was mentioned? Once more, I am picking your brain. Pat cw
