His English relations all had the 'g' in it. He was married twice. First to Mary Bingham by whom he had no children and secondly to Mary Humphries, an English girl who probably came out with the Quakers and by whom he had 5 children. I know he was buried in Northampton Township, Burlington County but I just wondered where. I couldn't visit the Library because I would have to travel several thousand miles from England. I wouold like to take you up on your kind offer if I may. Regards JUDY ELKINGTON www.elkingtonfamily.com [email protected] www.one-name.org/profiles/elkington.html
Dear Nancy, I have a book called "The Burlington Court Book of West N.J. 1680-1709". I looked up your William Wood and he is listed in the book with a few more Wood's. They may have a copy of the book there, if not and you would like me to send you copies of the pages that they are on. It is a very interesting book because they took them to court for things that we might over look today. And sometimes they sat on the Court. Let me know? My ancestor was Wm. Frampton and his wife Elizabeth Potter Frampton.

That pizza restaurant was the butcher shop/store owned by Zedekiah McCabe in the late 1800's. This Zedekiah (b. 1846) was the grandson of my 3g grandfather, also Zedekiah McCabe (b. 1780-1862).

Hello List...Thought I would finally put a question out to those who are interested. The Chesterfield Monthly Meeting Minutes from 1793 refer to a committee having been appointed to go and remove the tombstones from the Lambert Burial Ground. There apparently was a relationship between the Chesterfield MM and the Lambert Burial Ground. Would anybody on this list know specifically where the Lambert Burial Ground was? I'm assuming they were in close proximity to one another.

Surnames: Wallace, Marter, Albertson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/oQB.2ACE/1475.1.1 Message Board Post: Hi... It's pretty likely that she was related to the four brothers, but after digging around a bit I haven't been able to place her. They were definitely connected to the Albertsons -- the Wallaces' g-grandmother was an Albertson -- all of them were Quakers. So it's pretty clear that there were multiple connections between the families. I haven't seen Hunter, however. Since I posted this query I've found considerably more on the ancestry of this line. You may want to check out what I have online. Go to: http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com My database name is "gbonnet". From there, search for "Wallace, Benjamin" in my database, and you'll be able to track the family back several generations. If you ever do connect in for certain, feel free to use the information I have. Hope this helps -- wish I could give you more direct assistance! cheers, Gordon
Regarding Quaker meetinghouses & graveyards in Crosswicks - I was glad to see all the responses to Marcia's request, including the one from my 'almost' cousin Nancy Potts. I must correct the response from Susan Avery who stated that "Crosswicks is now in the middle of Trenton NJ". The village of Crosswicks is a part of Chesterfield Township, Burlington County. Trenton is across the creek a ways, in Mercer County. You don't go through it to get to Crosswicks. The village consists of about 100 houses, the two Quaker meetinghouses, a Methodist church, firehouse, library, post office, community center (have I left anyone out?) and a pizza restaurant in what used to be the general store. It is surrounded by farmland, and some of the area residents are direct descendants of folks who have been here since before the Revolutionary War. The suggestions about Columbus Farmers Market & NADE are great, and there's lots more to see in Crosswicks & nearby Bordentown, so Marcia from St Louis, come on in!!

A couple suggestions on where to stash your husband. Not far away from Crosswicks is a big flea market in Columbus, NJ.on route 206. and closer still is a Auto Auction NADE also on 206.

In a message dated 10/20/2006 10:58:31 AM Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes: I'd like to see my forebears' gravesites--if I can find them. William Wood arrived in Burlington county in 1677, his wife Mary Parnell arrived in 1682. Their farm was near Crosswicks and they were of course Quaker. He died in 1722, she in 1740. Can anyone shed light on what cemeteries in the area are the right age and right denomination for my search? Marcia, I just spoke to my friends, the Stevensons, who are staunch members of the Crosswicks Meeting. They lived between the two Meetinghouses ( the Hicksite is on Ward Ave. , a long block away from the one in the center of the village). There is a cemetery for each meetinghouse. The one in the center of the village was started in the 1700s. Regardless of whether you can actually see the grave or not, it is a beautiful site and one that can certainly inspire a person to get in touch with their forebearers. The village itself is like stepping back into the past. To my knowledge I have no Quakers in my background, but my husband's mother was a Haines/Engle and was very Quaker. Researching that lineage led me to sites that put me 'in touch' with her ancestors. If you decide to go to Crosswicks, I may be able to find someone to show you the interior of the Meetinghouse. Let me know the month well in advance. There is a Meetinghouse and cemetery in Mansfield Square, also on Route 206...not far from Crosswicks. Nancy Potts [email protected]
