In Burlington County in 1738, John Woolston married Hannah Tencher, daughter of Francis, deceased. I have been unable to find any Tenchers lving in New Jersey. I find a Hannah born to Joanna Tencher in Philadelphia in 1717. I also find a Francis Fincher in Philadelphia and later in Hopewell Quaker MM. Could anyone tell me if these are the same people. The original marriage license looks like a capial T but were T and F s that different??? -----
