I came across this while searching some Hinchman info. Does anyone know what these dates turn out to be? I haven't seen any put this way before Marriage Date: bet 16/1 & 20/2 Apr 1727 Child: Elizabeth; Mary; Gach Birth Date: 12/2 Apr 1728; 17/1 Mar 1729/30; 04/9 Nov 1731 Are they allowing for the change (Julian) and putting in the 2 days it could be? Like the 12th or 2nd of April 1728? If so, they don't all work out right. The marriage date has me especially befuddled. Anyone have a clue to interpret this?

Mrs. William Layton was the guest of Mrs. Fannie Halpin, of Hornerstown, on Sunday. Mrs. Frank Robbins and son Joseph visited friends at Clarksburg on Sunday.

Philip Remstine is entertaining his nephew Charles Mahn, of Ridgway, Long Island.

Miss Martha Sexton, who has been acting as nurse for William Chambers, of New Egypt, has returned to her home near Cookstown.

OBITUARY Another pillar of the Jacobstown Baptist Church has gone to his reward, and the church feels his loss greatly. Budd Poinsett was born near Jacobstown, N.J. August 24, 1836. For over fifty years he had been a faithful worker and supporter for the church, and one of its most honored and faithful deacons. When possessed of good health he worked hard for his church, but for the past twelve years he had been in ill health and unable to do much active work, although he continued his financial help up to the time of his death. On Tuesday August 2, 1915, at 10 a.m. he passed to his eternal rest. The funeral was held at the home of his brother-in-law, T. P. Miller, of Fieldsboro,N.J. at 11 a.m. on Thursday, August 5th. the funeral was well attended by relatives and friends from all the surrounding towns. His pastor, Rev. R. N. Toms, conducted the funeral services and preached from 1 Corinrhians XV: 51, 52 and a splendid mixed quartet sang three of the deceased's favorite hymns. The interment was in the Bordentown Cemetery. the widow, brother and two sisters and numerous relatives have the sympathy of the whole community. Narly all of the relatives and friends returned to the home on request and partook of dinner with the family. Well, hope some of you might have found a lead or two to family members. I love reading these old newspaper clippings.They really give you a feel of the times.

This is an interesting marriage - I have the family of Rebecca GILBERT & Thomas STEPHENS (STEVENS) in my database (link below), but did not trace them past the 1850 census, so I did not have Amy Anna. I know that Cheryl has quite a bit of interest in the STEVENS family. ;-) One other note - I have another POINSETT in my database, Caroline POINSETT, who married Samuel Rhodell GILBERT in 1892. I have Caroline's parents listed as "Peter & Ann" with a note to re-check. Is this Caroline the sister of Peter POINSETT? If so, is there some connection between the two GILBERT families? Samuel is descended from one of the "dead end" branches of the family in Burlington County, from the Burlington area. Rebecca is from the Bordentown/Chesterfield branch of the family. Any information appreciated. Also, if anyone has *any* interest in the GILBERT family in Burlington County, please check my World Connect database. Mike http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/~hrdina/
