I am looking for a connection between the surname Faurotte/ Faurot/ Farrout and one of these surnames. In 1845 at Burlington Co., a William Faurout married his second wife Mary C. ? There is a possibility her surname could be one of the following Appelman, Blaisdell or Cornell. Is there anyone on the list researching one of these surnames? Thank you. Lily

I think its a mistake to regard the change in calendar as a Quaker event, it was an act of the British Parliment and impacted everyone in North America. This isn't just a Quaker event, Germans, Scotch Irish, Welsh were all effected by the change. Jim > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Donna E.

Hi all, A kind lister sent this to me. I realized I had gotten "rusty" on Quaker dates. In one of the last wills I sent, I forgot that after 1752, the Quakers used January as the first month, no longer March. This article should help "newbies" and "rusty ones" like yours truly. So, on Lydia Stokes Haines LAMB's will, since her dates are after 1752, 23 da, 7th mo, 1778 should be July, not Sept. Also, dates on the most recent Nehemiah and Lettice Foster LAMB children/Intestate article should be changed. Lettice FOSTER was born 22 Feb 1755 and the children are as follows: Esaias or Isaiah is 4 Mar 1773, Mary LAMB is 10 Mar 1774; Samuel LAMB is 14 May 1777; Rebecca LAMB is 30 Jul 1780 and Charlotte LAMB is 9 Aug 1782. Enjoy the article. "OUR QUAKER ANCESTORS Finding Them in Quaker Records" by Ellen Thomas Berry & David Allen Berry From Chapter VII "Quaker Records and Some Possible Problems" pg.67 and 68: "Another pitfall for the purist can be the unique way the Quakers dated events. They did not use names for days of the week or months of the year since most of these names were derived from the names of pagan gods. A date such as August 19, 1748 will never be found. Rather it would be written as "19th da 6th mo 1748." Sometimes this will be written as 6mo 19da 1748. Why 6th month since August is the 8th month? The Quakers, along with everyone else in the American Colonies and England, did not begin using the Gregorian calendar until 1752. Under the Julian calendar the year began on March 25th; March was the first month and February was the twelfth month. This is something of a problem when an event occurred in the months of January, February or up to March 25th, for then the date is given as 1748/1749. Such a dating practice satisfied everyone, including civil authorities, if for instance an inheritance was being established. You may find that some legal documents will read "the 8th mo 5th day 1748 in the month called October." It is disconcerting when a date such as 30th da 11th mo 1722/1723 is found. The double year indicates that the old calendar was in use. Even though the Gregorian Calendar was adopted in 1582, as mentioned above it was 1752 before the change was universally accepted. We are emphasizing this point here so that if exact days, months, and years are wanted, the old Quaker records must be used with great caution. Remember that until 1752 "1st mo" is March. We would like to point out also that you may find secondary material (genealogies are a case in point) in which the compiler transcribed dates incorrectly - for instance. "30th da 11th mo 1738/1739" rewritten as "Nov. 30, 1738/39" when the date in question is actually "30th January 1738/1739. The dual year must be used until you are quite certain the locale in question has adopted the Gregorian calendar (or until the Quaker records no longer have the dual form or the year is after 1752). Dual dating is applicable ONLY for the first three months (to 25 March) of the present calendar and NOT for the other nine months. The first date given is the Julian year, the second the Gregorian year." Another way of finding whether the old Quaker method of dating is being used in any given set of records is to search back and forth until a month such as the "2nd mo" is found and the see if entries were made on either the 29th or 30th days, If this was done, then you will know the old system was being used and the month would be the present month of April rather than February. Other months can be used. For instance, if it is the "7th mo" and you find the "31st," you would know the new system is being used and the month is our present month of July rather than the Quaker September." In other words, before 1752, 11th month was January; 12th month was February; 1st month was March; 2nd month was April and so on. 1752 and after, 1st month was January, 2nd month was February, 3rd month was March...just as we number the months today. When recording dates found in Quaker records, it is preferred practice to copy them as they are found and to record the source. Too often, dates have been transformed incorrectly in secondary sources and these dates should always be verified by the original monthly meeting records.

Will #10 was that of Joseph LAMB Sr. His will, written 1792, mentions his deceased son, Nehemiah, born 11 Feb 1749/1750 per Upper Springfield Quaker MM records. Nehemiah was actually deceased prior to 1782, when his wife, Lettice FOSTER, dau of Amariah FOSTER and Mary PRICKETT, was listed as a widow under the Upper Preparative Monthly Meeting Members, 1782. Prior to 1792, when Joseph LAMB wrote his will, Lettice married -?- RINEER/RENEER, etc. The Intestate papers for Nehemiah were not recorded until 1806. Reference #12274C Burlington County wills. John BRANSON and Thomas HARRIS appraisers of inventory totalling $730.36. Joseph HARRIS signed the inventory. >From the will of Joseph LAMB Sr., and also from the records of the Upper Springfield Quaker MM, we know the children of Nehemiah LAMB and Lettice FOSTER (my line) to be as follows: *Esaias or Isaiah LAMB, born 4 May 1773, married Susanna WARREN * Mary LAMB, born 10 May 1774, married Joseph HARRIS *Samuel LAMB, born 14 Jul 1777, married Nancy/Ann STARKEY(my line) * Rebecca LAMB, born 30 Sep 1780, husband unknown * Charlotte LAMB, born 9 Oct 1782, married William POPE SOURCES: Burlington County Wills; Upper Springfield Quaker MM Records; Bible Records for Samuel LAMB and Nancy/Ann STARKEY.
