Hi Everyone, I hope someone out there can help me with this family. I am at a dead end! Wilhelm or William WAGONER (also spelled WAGNER & WAGGONER in records) built a house in Bridgeton, Cumberland County, in 1762. According to THE HISTORY OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, NJ, it was on the NW corner of Broad and Franklin. He also had a blacksmith shop there. He was married to Margaret or Maria Elesabeth SAILOR or SAILER or SEILER. They were listed as Godparents of children from two different families who were baptized in the Friesburg Emanuel Lutheran Church, Friesburg, Salem Co. Perhaps the Waggoner family also attended that church? Maria/Margaret's brother was Zachariah SAILOR. Wilhelm Wagner was named as Godfather at the baptism of Zachariah's son, Wilhelm SAILOR, in 1759. Zachariah's house was next to the WAGGONER's garden. Mrs. Maria Elesabeth WAGNER was named as Godmother for twins, Johann Philip and Susanna FLACK, children of Simon and Elizabeth FLACK, baptized 1757. I don't know how the two families are connected. William died in Bridgeton in 1772. He and Margaret/Maria (Sailor) WAGGONER had only two known children: 1. Margaret WAGGONER. She was mentioned in her father's will. No further record. 2. George WAGGONER, b. 5 May 1756. William GARRISON was appointed his guardian until the age of 21. George fought in the Rev War. He married Mary HOLLOWAY 13 Aug 1782 in Bottle Hill (now Madison) Morris County, NJ. He died in 1830 in Walpole, Ontario, Canada. I would love to know more about any of these people and will greatly appreciate any information, clues, suggestions, etc.!! Thanks! Elaine Waiters ewaiters@thegrid.net
