Theodore- I don't think so. I found this in the mailing list archives of Quaker-Roots: http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/quaker-roots/2003-04/1049832283 Tom Hamm is about as knowledgeable as anyone on early Quaker records -- and he never saw a notation of a Quaker marrying an Indian at an early date in the records. I'd add--neither have I for what it is worth. The notation about Alice being an Indian was added by someone LATER--possibly someone who had no firsthand knowledge. So it is questionable.

Early Church Records of Burlington County, New Jersey, by Charlotte D. Meldrum is published by Family Line Publications, Westminster, MD. Vol. 1 is the records of Burlington Monthly Meeting (Quaker). There seems to be some question as to whether Alice Alday was an Indian or not--although the Unami as a branch of the Lenni-Lenape were in the area at the time--so it is possible. However, it looks as if Robert Zane had no children with Alice --the mothers of his children apparently were his first wife, Margaret HAMMOND and his 3rd wife Elizabeth WILLIS. You say the "marriage certificate was signed by the religious and social leaders of the community." Actually this is the way Quaker marriage ceremonies are recorded. The couple make their vow to each other (essentially marrying themselves) while the guests and friends and family watch and each signs the marriage record as a witness and the bride and groom sign as husband and wife for the first time. >From what I'm able to gather it doesn't appear that anything in the marriage record itself says that Alice ALDAY was an Indian or Chief's daughter -- this information was added later and is questionable. Since the couple had no children, it doesn't appear to be extremely important that the matter be sorted out though. Joan In a message dated 8/1/2008 12:32:00 A.M.

Hi Joan I wonder if the information on Sachem ALDAY Chief of the Unami Clan of the Lenni-Lenape Tribe is right. And if so did he have anymore children, it only speaks of this one daughter, he could have had others that were grown or lived else where, any it is just a thought but a good one I think.

John W. Fenimore (1797-1867) was a prominent resident and mayor of Beverly beginning around 1854. I have been unable to find anything on the family of his wife, Ann Adams. Also, one of their children was Eleazer Ripley Fenimore, my great-great grandfather. He was named, I assume, for BG Eleazer Ripley who was an honored general during the War of 1812 but probably not related to the Fenimores of Beverly. Eleazer Fenimore married a Charlotte Wollohan who was the daughter of Jacob and Elizabeth (?). I know there has got to be a Haines connection because one of their children was Henry Haines Fenimore, which was also the name of my grandfather (grandson to Henry Haines Fenimore the first). He passed the name along also to his son, my uncle "Haines" Fenimore. I know the Haines family was very prolific in the community but I have not been able to find a Haines-Fenimore connection a! nd I suspect it must be either the wife of Jacob Wollohan or somewhere in the family of Ann Adams.
