Can anyone tell me whether wrtitten records still exist for Cumberland and/or Gloucester counties during the 1700 to 1750 time frame? If so, where do I find them? I'm particularly interested in any records that might show births or list children -- wills, birth/baptismal records, etc. Quaker records are also of particular interest. Thanks ahead of time to anyone who can help! Judy Kimsey

Also if anyone would happen to have any information on Ann or Anna Allen b. 1795 and her father Barzilla, would appreciate the info. Ann or Anna would be my 2nd Gr.Grandmother. Wes Hayman Colorado

Diane, Thanks for trying to find my Christiana Stultz/Stulz/Stolz Roedel. I spoke with Adam Roedel recently, and it would have been his ggrandmother, b abt.1830. She would have married her Roedel abt.1855-1860. His father was Gustav, grandfather was Frederick, and ggrandfather also Frederick. He doesn't know his ggrandmother's name. Another dead end. Christiana was an older sister to my ggrandmother, Christina Stulz/Stolz Mood. Anyone out there have a possible link or lead on the elusive Christiana S. Roedel? Thanks, Joan in NJ

Sarah French Clark married Eli Allen in about 1873. I have information about the Allens, but not much on her. She was born Sarah French. The information I have is that her father died and her mother married a Clark. The French family had some connection to a General French of the Revolutionary War. Both the Allen and French/Clark families lived in the Woodbury - Gibbstown area. I would appreciate information on her family. Sara Allen Nampa, Idaho

Listers: in searching for information on Rebecca STERN, I found this marriage in Carig's Burlington Count (NJ) Marriages. CHARLES KAIGHN married SARAH STERN 11-24-1814...source was Burlington County Clerk's Records 1795-1840. Does anyone have these names in his/her family tree? Maybe Rebecca and Sarah were sisters. REBECCA STERN married circa 1814, too....married Thomas Bullock. Thanks for any help anyone can give on STERN family. [email protected]

There is a new series that started in today's Philadelphia Inquirer: http://www.phillynews.com/inquirer/99/May/02/front_page/BURY02.htm The Burying Business: Why funeral costs stay so high Examining rituals and reforms of the industry that cares for our dead. In addition, the article includes the following: * A glossary of funeral terms * Funeral home-cemetery combos may create even more confusion * Making sense of the cemetery charges * Homes in Pa., N.J. violated Funeral Rule * Putting notice in newspapers adds to the expense of death

Since this is "just across the river", I thought those in the area might be interested. >Date: Sat, 01 May 1999 08:55:23 -0400 >From: GenCAP <[email protected]> >X-Accept-Language: en >MIME-Version: 1.0 >To: GENCAP c/o Tom Deahl <[email protected]> >Subject: GenCAP PROGRAM ANNOUNCEMENT >Status: U > >GenCAP Quaretly Meeting on SATURDAY, 8 May 1999 - 3:00pm > >PROGRAM: A panel discussion on the topic: >THINKING ABOUT RESEARCH MATERIALS IN DIGITAL FORM > > How soon will computer-aided genealogists be able to do all their >family history research at home?

Looking for Josiah DILL, wife Sarah STOW, married in Phila. in 1795. They lived in Gloucester and Camden Co. They may have had a son named Josiah DILL, Jr. I'm specifically looking for Sarah and information about her parents. Marilyn

Hi Folks, The Today Show on NBC is doing a weeklong story on genealogy. The MSNBC Internet site provides links to genealogical web sites. Some are well known, others were new to me. http://www.msnbc.com/modules/genealogy/default.asp John Cresseveur

I have almost all the data I need on the CHEW line, since it is not a major line, even though, in a distant way, it has ties of relation, and of memory... But! What I am trying to figure is, Who is my Aunt Nellie? She had a fascination for the AYRES family, and I suspect, may have been the wife of Wayne Egbert AYRES. But I also suspect she may have been a CHEW. Eleanor CHEW. Now, I know about THE book. LDS has Eleanor CHEW as the daughter of Clayton CHEW and Eleanor Bell MUCHMORE (what a name!) ... of Morristown. I guess that is right, but since Clayton was born in Salem, New Jersey, it is my guess that the submitter meant Moorestown, New Jersey. I think it is geographically closer, and my Wayne Egbert AYRES' brother Edward lived in Moorestown. Plus, My Aunt Nellie did also... Does anyone know anything about Eleanor CHEW? And if so, (she was b. Dec. 1897, and had a sister Elizabeth) did she marry Wayne Egbert AYRES? Thanks, Vince
