Hello all, I am adding now more information to my post of yesterday, I was contacted by a researcher who also has BOWKER in Burlington Co. NJ. This further info might help to make some identifications or connections. Vol B. 1711-1797 "Early NJ Marriage Extracts" #583- Barzillai Bowker of Northhampton, Burlington Co NJ, married to Hester Minyon 3-4-1774. #579- Cornelius Brannin of Evesham, married Amelia Nevin 11-13-1773 of Northhampton, Burlington Co NJ. #576- Levi Bowker of Northhampton, Burlington Co NJ, married Ann Mount 10-16-1773. These above marriages are not know to connect to my ancestry, I am addding them here in case they help others, or incase these prove to relate to my ancestry. My ancestor was Isaiah Bowker b, 1766. I would assume he is from some BOWKER family in Burlington Co NJ, though I have no idea as to his father's name. He married on March 5, 1789 in St. Andrews Church, Mt. Holly, Burlington Co NJ to Martha Branin. Martha Branin b. abt 1766, d/o John Branin b. 11-3-1733 (m. Jane Moore , 11-29-1758 Burlington Co NJ.). John, s/o Michael Branin b. 9-8-1708, he married Elizabeth Norcross 11-24-1730 Springfiled twsp, Burlington Co NJ. The sources for the above info: Karen Norcross, she has submitted to rootsweb.com, her email was [email protected] Also, Brian Carpenter [email protected] Both of these researchers did not have the ancestry of Isaiah Bowker. My ancestor Isaiah Bowker LEFT Nj about 1803-4 time frame, because he was settled in Salem, Columbiana Co OH by 1804, and he served in the War of 1812 there, and he is buried in Salem. Therefor, I would need to find a man named Isaiah Bowker who is in records in NJ up to 1804, but then no longer. If there are tax lists to consult, please look for a man who fits this description. The children of Isaiah Bowker and Mary Branin are: Samuel Bowker b. Mar 4, 1794 NJ, m. Hannah Atkinson (they lived in Salem, OH) Sarah Bowker b. June 29, 1796 NJ, m. Eli Branin on Nov 7, 1817. Mary Bowker b. 1795 NJ, married James W. Leach of Salem, OH.(they lived in Salem, OH) Elizabeth Bowker (m. John Flitcraft in Salem, OH) Nancy Bowker (m. Mr. Harmon) Elsie Bowker b. 1816 OH ( m. John P. Chisholm b. 1812 PA in Salem, OH) There is a possible second marriage for Isaiah Bowker, he is said to have married a Hannah Whitten Creasher. I have not confirmed this, but if this is true the marriage would be in Salem, OH. If this is true, then Elsie Bowker would be the daughter of the second wife Hannah Whitten, who was formerly married to a Creasher. Lastly: I found an Isaiah Bowker who was said to be the son of Richard Bowker and Esther Gwin, they married 9-26-1760. This is not confirmed as my ancestry, maybe other will be able to comment on these names.

i dont know how you can bother with hundreds of emails when you can receive 6 only to peruse.why bother being lazy and not using digest? it certainly clears the mind and you can put off reading til later rather than have extra ones to sort. at least you know for certain that they all pertain to nj list that way. sometimes i dont feel like reading essex or nj ones, so i read only monmouth ones that day. certainly makes for more pleasurable reading, especially with so many people griping latelyabout nitpicking things, like digest #s and so on- enthusiasm sometimes just makes you hit reply without thinking when you get excited t o help others! well i guess im the weird cause i get excited helping others find their families. go figure. . linda ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

lovely little town on the delaware river- old qaint bldgs, originally built in 1700s - flora and fauna=cranberry bogs! if youve never seen them being harvested, its fascinating- they flood ditches and go along and knock off the ripe cranberries(ocean spray has/had harvesting plant there in bordentown across from napoleans brothers home) then the ones that float, as in the commercials on tv where you see the red blood color water(which are the ripe berries) are captured thru harvester at end of drainage ditch-- they process then to the drinks, jellies and jams that we all associate with thanksgiving and xmas or whateve r holiday. lots of horse farms in burlington-t he land is fine for horses feet-and the grass sweet. the tallman family has been there for centuries i believe. medford is gorgeous-(further south in county) overall, burlington is one of the nicer counties cause some open space still left and lots of trees that are deciduous, rivers, creeks, history and nice little towns where you can park, eat shop and be relatively safe to live and peruse the area. bass river twsp is at the tail end- and lots of kayaking, canoeing(sp) and so on to enjoy their on a lovely day- any time of hte year. mostly wildlife preserve last i was there- of course there are the factory homes built by roebling to see- in roebling! (big surprise)and if you arent aware of it, roebling made the cables for the golden gate bridge among other suspension bridges across usa. some really interesting,famous stuff if it hits you right- moorestown for shopping, country to ride thru for afternoon farm stands and yard sales, auctions and so on- i believe i may be wrong about chesterfield being in hamilton twsp- altho parts of it may be. in chesterfield, there is the old quaker meeting house with the story of cannonball(thought to be not there now)embedded in wall- however, the historical aspects are all around the county and except for some areas- like willingboro which was a levitt development built on farm land, most towns are old walking towns- still- be careful and aware. linda ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

here goes foot in mouth. for todays boundaries, mercer county(chesterfield=hamilton and trenton nearby if dont border) monmouth borders all along upper freehold and allentown, ocean along rt 537 thru the pines, and my mind just went blank as to southern border! imagine that! napolean boneparts brother had mansion in bordentown, which turned into bordentown military academy with hidden routes to escape to river, rev. war was fought in pockets there and alot of fossils found in crosswicks creek -peat bog used to make cannonballs(yes i know also at batsto which i think is also in burlington county) and the gunk they put on baseballs rumored to be out of some hidden part of burlington. very interesting, diverse flora and fauna(cranberry bogs, blueberry bushes, potatoes, corn etc) and alot of farmalnd remaing. arneys mount hill was famous for battle i think- rt 206 probably the most dangerous road ive ever driven in usa except for 95 here in palm beach county south to miami! if you live in nj, do yourself a favor and drive along the river towns during spring-summer when not flooding and enjoy the festivals and old homes and fun times. linda=former allentown resident and matawan born- jersey girl always. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Hello to all researchers, My Burlington Co NJ ancestors, or research subjects are as follows: 1. Isaiah Bowker b. 1766 Burlington Co NJ. He left Burlington Co NJ to settle at Salem, Columbiana Co OH in 1804. Salem, OH is famous for having been settled by Quakers coming in from PA, NJ, VA, MD in the year 1803 through 1810. Isaiah Browker while living in Salem, OH enlisted in the War of 1812 service. He died 5-16-1845 at Salem, OH. He was a Quaker in NJ, but I have not looked into his records in Ohio, whether he remained in the Quaker faith, or not. His daughter Mary Bowker was born in 1795 at Burlington Co NJ, but was taken to Salem, OH in 1804. She married James W. Leach in Salem, OH. Isaiah Bowker also had a son Samuel Bowker. 2. Joseph Wright b. Dec 22, 1777 Salem Co., NJ, s/o John Wright b. 1744 and Hannah Barber, who was s/o Mahlon Wright b. 1712. He married Rebecca Bunting on May 26, 1799 Burlington Co NJ. They left Burlington Co NJ to settle at Salem, OH in fall of 1809. They had children of their own, however they also raised a 'foster' son named James W. Leach b. 1802-4 Maryland. There is no evidence that Joseph Wright was related in any way to James W. Leach. James may have been orphaned or abandoned on the Wagon Trail to Ohio, and Joseph Wright simply took over his care out of Christian duty. There is a man named Jesse Leach and his brother Uz Leach who are of Burlington Co NJ. I have not found much info on these men, but it would be a possiblity that my ancestor James W. Leach could be a descendant of either man, but was somehow born in Maryland, and then raised as an orphan in Salem, OH by Joseph Wright. I have researched James W. Leach for 6 years, there are no clues in Salem, OH as to his parents. The children of Joseph and Rebecca Wright are: Lydia; John; Caroline; Elizabeth; Hannah; Miriam; Joseph Hicks. They were associated with Chesterfield Monthy Meeting at Burlington Co NJ. Best regards, Lilly Martin

Searching for some McCORMICK'Sin BURLINGTON and HUNTERDON counties. I have a card that is put in churches to announce visiting Rev. that were to speak. "Old Camden Court House" that was used in 1888 that is on bottom of card. Sermons that were to be preached on back. The handwriting on back is that of my Rev. WILLIAM H. McCORMICK b-1832 Morristown, NJ. His father HIRAM G. is the one I'm most interested in being he was in Camden when young. HIRAM b-1806-08 New York.

Howdy - Seems to me that the BERGEN Co. try has panned out, so lets move on to learning something about BURLINGTON county. Kindly remember to place any surname in CAPS. This thread is about learning about the county, its cities and townships, and the people who populated it. Links to official sites are most welcome, but I believe it would be advantageous for all of us, if some of you would provide some descriptive history from your own point of view, or better yet, aptly demonstrate the depth of the families who settled there, and perhaps too where some might have gone. I can see that BURLINGTON county was formed abt 1681-1684, that its county seat is Mount Holly, that it had a boundary set with GLOUCESTER county in 1692, and HUNTERDON was set off in 1714, and part of MERCER was taken from it in 1838. I believe the 1681 date refers to when the court was established. But, like you, I'd like to learn more, and would like also to get a grasp of the layout of the town, some of the businesses which maybe started there, and are still there, any maybe too learn something about the churchs and cemeteries. Having never been there, I'd like to take a trip sometime in the near future, and 'see' what some of you with more knowledge of the area, wrote about on this site. Anyway, I do hope the folks who live in the NE part of the country are surviving the storm. Here in Wyoming, the weather is truly spring, though we still have some periods of snow. Have a nice day!!!! David Tourison NJ List Moderator

Well I finally am finally back up and running here.............Not totally up to snuff (its not recognizing my CD Rom) but hey I can fix that problem......... I also got to go meet some extended family last week in Whiting NJ and received quite a bit of information.........all the way back to 1780 along with 4 pictures of the great great great grandparents and 4-great grandparents (I believe thats how it goes) but have to count it again.........I filled them in on the younger generations and they filled me in on the older generations plus I got to visit America's Keswick which is a place for men who have alcohol issues.......they do a wonderful job according to some of the clientele there...... The person who asked me about records of a person who had been there as a patient.........sorry but due to confidentiality rules they cannot give me that info plus not having everything I needed on the person since the computer was down.......they may have the records in storage elsewhere!! Barbara

I have checked with David regarding posting this information to the list. I have a book with short bios for officials and eminent citizens of Indiana. There is no mention of NJ in any of the bios, but perhaps there may be a surname that would be in your family tree. These will be short extracts, but willing to send the entire bio to those who may be interested. Understand that not all of them will have mention of other family members as it is primarily a book of statistics and political offices I will post as often as I can a few at a time. I believe there is a total of 34 names. MOORE'S HOOSIER CYCLOPEDIA Compiled by E. E. Moore Connersville, IN Copyrighted in 1905 by E. E. Moore J.

I Have recently used Ancestry for the tax records. I accessed them by looking for a particular ancestor that I was interested in. He was found in the New Jersey Census, 1772 - 1890. I then ordered the appropriate film from the Mormon Family History Library (at their nearest library). The 1779 film revealed tax records for the periods that included, "A tax for those Exempted from Military duty " included names, acres improved, acres not improved, value of acres, money at interest, total of levy, horses, cattle, hogs, single men, slaves, merchants/shopkeepers, riding chairs and house holders. My Problem: Does anyone know what the criteria was (for the different years covered, presumed to not be the same for every year) to be on the tax lists or possibly where to find the information.

I, too, would like the Census map....prefer 1790, please. Pat --------------------------------- Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell? Check outnew cars at Yahoo! Autos.

Terri, Apparently the server is limiting mail size anyway so long messages are not going through, learned the hard way. You will get a message that it is being held for review. Kinda of reminiscent of what they do to us as work. Sometimes the entire thread or most of it needs to be there, sometimes it's not necessary. Sometimes we need to address our email to the person we are replying to, not just the list. That eliminates my confusion, is this person talking to me or someone else, this cryptic message could be a response to anybody's post, hmm. Delete. I too am guilty of responding and not addressing the person I am responding to, I will be the first to reprimand myself. I think I learned how to write a letter in grade school and apparently I forgot my letter writing lessons, Sister Marie Frances would be so mad whoops angry. This is not a chat page so proper etiquette is important. Also the cryptic chat abbreviations should be avoided, as well as a super, duper large a font and all caps (that's yelling and we don't yell at each other on the lists). Understanding that some of us are getting on in years and need to have larger fonts and sometimes we type in caps it's easier for those who don't type for a living and these arthritic hands, but I have gotten a couple emails of late that really do appear that I am being yelled at and I don't appreciate that.

I would too, if it isn't too much trouble. Thank you.

For all you folks who need census maps. This site is good for all states as well. I have found these maps to be a great help in doing genealogy. Hope they help you as well. _Click here: New Jersey Census Maps_ (http://www.mynewjerseygenealogy.com/nj_maps/nj_cm.htm) ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

I would love a copy of that county information!

Howdy folks, and good morning to all. Just have a brief suggestion for us all to try to do when replying to someone offering to do research for us with some book, or cemetery, etc., and that is to just reply to that person, personally. Of late we've all seen various members asking for the map/census scans, but those requests add little if anything to the list's archives. When I want to ask for a copy of something, instead of just hitting the 'reply' link, I click on the person's email address which usually accompanies the message. When this happens, I get a clean page, sending the message just to that person (and not to the list), with the 'subject' line blank. In it then I just put a few words about my request for data, and then write my message. We all need to try to do this on a more conscious basis. I am as guilty as anyone, so if I mess up, you all should not hesitate to remind me of my failing. Just a suggestion! David - [email protected]
