I am looking for descendants of Peter Slim and Christiana Houseman. Here is what I have on this family. SLIM =========================================================== PETER AND CHRISTIANA CAME TO THIS COUNTRY FROM GERMANY AND WERE MARRIED AFTER WORKING A YEAR TO PAY FOR THEIR PASSAGE. (Arrival in America circa 1757/8) PETER B. 1733, D. 17 Feb. 1814. M. 1759 CHRISTIANA HOUSEMAN B. about 1730. D. 4 Oct 1821. CHILDREN: SAMUEL B. 12 Feb 1760 M. Hannah PIERSON REBECCA B. 12 Feb 1761 M. Arthur VENABLE CATHERINE B. 30 Sep 1765 M. Emanuel BEAGARY MIRIAM B. 31 Oct 1769 M. Josiah LIPPINCOTT PETER B. 6 Feb 1772 My family descends from this family through the marriage of Catherine Slim to Emanuel Beagary. Their son John Beagary married (2nd wife) Keziah Landers and their daughter, Elizabeth Paul Beagary was the mother of my great grandmother, Catherine Adele Field. I notice the (Internet directory) phone book has a lot of Slims listed for the New Jersey area around Hamden. Jacqueline Sleeper Russell McKinleyville, California
