Date: April 3, 1907 Page: 3 Column: 4 Summary: ... Letters testamentary on the estate of John Boylen, deceased, of Mansfield township, have been granted to John P. Hutchinson. Under the will there are two special bequests of $500 each, one to Ellen Dunn, a sister, and the other to Thomas Boylen, a brother. James Boylen, another brother, is named as the residuary legatee. The estate is valued at about $5,000. ... Some things to be aware of. The NJ State Achives in Trenton has death records up to about 1940(?) available on mircrofilm for public access (as well as marriages to 1940(?) and births to 1921(?)). The archives also had copies of wills, so if above Newspaper article is your person it it likely a copy of the papers related to the will are in the Archives as well. The Burlington County library has a collection of local cemetery records - about 5 volumes I think -- forget the details but they cover a number of the smaller cemeteries and are usually indexed. A number of Burlington County cemetery records are also on line -- http://www.interment.net/us/nj/burlington.htm The library also has a number of newspapers on microfilm.
