Hi Evelyn, I too, would like a copy of the index. Will you let us know how you'd like to be reimbursed (check? money order?) and where to mail it? It's kind of you to offer--I hope you won't be overwhelmed.

Please do not use shaving cream or any other thing on the stone, There is so much that will do damage in time and we want these stones to last for the next generations. There is an online site TOMBSTONES that will tell you how to photograph them and not leave anything behind on the stone. Catherine

Dane, This is very interesting, however, I'm still confused insofar as the meaning of "north of the borough" and "North District Hopewell Twp". If you are saying that you think the referenced "BELLIS farm" was probably located in what is today Mercer Co NJ, then I am ready to jump for joy...but I won't start jumping until I've actually reviewed the deed history. Here's "the rest of the story." According to online databases, which I presume at this point to be correct, "Enoch W. DRAKE was a descendant of Thomas and Dorothy (VanKIRK) DRAKE." I know, through correspondence with a descendant, that George BELLIS (b. 1805 in Highland Co OH) had a son who married Arminda Jane KIER, also a descendant of Thomas and Dorothy (VanKIRK) DRAKE. BELLIS and KIER married in Highland Co OH in 1862. The question is: who was the father of George BELLIS. All signs point to George being a descendant of the BELLESFELTs of Selters (Nordhofen) Germany who immigrated to the Hunterdon Co NJ area circa 1730/40, but the question is, which branch. He probably doesn't belong to immigrant Adam BELLIS(felt), the original owner of the "BELLIS Homestead" located along KUHL Road, since most of Adam's descendants have been accounted for and I can't fit in "George from OHIO". If Enoch W. DRAKE bought a different piece of BELLIS property, located not too far away from Adam and perhaps owned by Adam's brother, then the scent continues... Thanks for your reply!

This was reported in the November 16, 1897 Trenton Evening Times, under the subheading "HOPEWELL": "At the sale of the real estate of Joseph M. PHILLIPS, deceased, on Saturday, the harness property was sold to J.C. HARRISON and the adjoining lot, now occupied by Samuel CARVER to John TITUS, and the house and lot in East Hopewell, known as the BUCKLEY property, was sold to Samuel CARVER, and the farm north of the borough, known as the BELLIS farm, to Enoch W. DRAKE. Fair prices were obtained for all." I'm trying to ascertain if this farm might be the "BELLIS homestead" located along KUHL Road near the Copper Hill/Reaville area or is a different Bellis property. Thanks, Roz BELLIS Alexandria VA

This is an interesting topic. I was told about the shaving cream angle by an actual historian and gravestone restorer. However he also mentioned just after using the shaving cream, he completely rinses the stone off of all cream to leave no residue. According to the article that may not be possible. He also used the mirror trick and it DOES really work! In absence of a mirror I have also used the reflection of the sun off of the white pages of my notebook that I bring. That works almost as good in a pinch. All of the suggestions in the preservation page were very helpful when our Boy Scout troop restored an abandoned cemetery a few years ago.

I've begun transcribing and photographing some of my local cemeteries. If the sunlight and mirror aren't cooperating, try taking a close-up shot with a digital camera with the flash on. Also, in some cases, I've found that viewing the photo in black and white brings out lettering that may not be visible in color. Dane Coefer Ashland, Oregon

To All, I know there is controversy over this but I have checked it out with a chemist and a stone cutter and both agreed there was no harm done to the tombstones.... So if you wish to do it fine.... and if you think it would hurt, don't. In going to old cemeteries, I have used shaving cream to cover the areas of print, then scraped off the cream with a heavy piece of cardboard leaving the cream in the dents made in the stones. Then I take a picture of the stone because the camera does not see depth like the human eye and you will be able to read the pictures even on white stones... It works great for those stones under trees or on cold rainy days. In fact I prefer to do it on cloudy days as the white cream shows up even more clearly. When I am finished snapping and recording... I spray the stone with water to remove the cream and wipe it off with a paper towel. Many of the stones I photographed 10 years ago are now broken and gone and I am glad I recorded them when I did. If you would like to see a picture of one of the stones, I will be happy to privately e-mail you one... My chemist said that if the soap ate away stone all the men who shaved every day would have no skin. :+) Like I said, you can decide for yourself.

It was on microfiche, and I copied the entire index on the library's machine. It runs 174 pages. If anyone would like to have a copy, I can copy it at Office Max, who charges 7 cents per page. The postage should run approx. $1.00. I would like to do all the copying at once, so if anyone does want the copy, please let me know within one week, and I will get the job done as soon as possible.

I do not know if you are interested in Claytons later in Hunterdon, but in "Hunterdon Marriage Records, 1795-1875" by Hiram E. Deats, but here are the Claytons: 1. Azariah Clayton married Mary Simpson, 26 Sep 1829( 3-121) by Dennis, J . P. 2. William Clayton married Elsey Probasco on 28 Mar 1813, (2-12) by Boswell. 3. William B. Clayton married Lavina Rittenhouse on 14 Nov 1866(4-46) by Hater. ----- Original Message ----- From: <janalpert@aol.com> To: <NJHUNTER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, May 27, 2005 11:22 AM Subject: Re: [NJHUNTER] Chamberlins in OH and Claytons > I was recently on a genealogy trip to NE Ohio researching my Connecticut > lines that moved there. > I also descend from William (1772-1851) and Elizabeth (Duckworth) > Chamberlin from Hunterdon Co. who are buried in Vienna, Trumbull Co., OH. > I took pictures of their tombstones, if anyone else is related and would > like a picture.
