NJ. Also living there is Mory(probably Mary), 40, b. NJ. & several other children as well as Thomas. Also living there is a William Leining/Leiming, age 73, a harness maker. On the 1850 census in Chesterfield, Sidney & Mary Forman are listed. Sidney is the head of household & two of the same children as on the 1860 are with them (Deborah & Alice)I think that most likely Sidney & Mary Forman are the parents of your Thomas Forman. It`s unlikely anyone living in Chesterfield today is going to be familiar with a family who lived there 150 years ago. Your best bet might be to contact the Burlington co. Historical Society to see if they have any info. on this Forman family. Check the Burlington Co. USgenweb site for the address & more info. on resources for the county. http://tinyurl.com/5odmf4 If you know where/when Thomas died his death certificate might confirm his parents names. Pat R.
