Hello Everyone - I'm new to this list, so first let me introduce myself. My name is Deborah Johnson and I live in California. My name by birth is MINGIN, Johnson is my step father's last name, long nasty story! Anyway, I'm trying, with much difficulty to trace my MINGIN line. All attempts in Salem, Gloucester and Cumberland Counties have failed to produce anything past my great great grandfather, except for his parents names, so, I will now share this information with you, as my next lead are some births from Florence, NJ, located in Burlington County. Please let me know if you can assist me! :-) William MINGIN married Emma LONG - this is all I know on them. They had the following children: Irving - born 8/21/1886 in Florence, NJ Clarence - born 1/1/1892 - he married Ruby M. BENNETT around 1920 - these are my great grandparents. Albert - born 5/21/1896 Merrill - born 6/19/1919 Samuel Loren - born 1/12/1899 William Jr. - He went by Howard Emma Maggie Bertha - all three daughters died young. Clarence and Ruby had one child, Clarence, born in 1922 - that is my grandfather, he's still living, but his 80 year old memory is not so good. Clarence married Pearl Marie Smith around 1940, they had Clarence and Robert, Clarence was my father, he passed in 1985. I have a lot more information on this line from my great grandfather and his siblings on down, and am looking primarily to see if anyone recognizes any of the children of William and Emma LONG MINGIN, or can help me in locating the information for William and Emma LONG. That is why I kept it brief, I don't want to overwhelm anyone! :-) Take care - Deb
