This Bellis farm was likely in Mercer County in Hopewell Twp. north of the Borough boundaries. On the 1880 Census Joseph M. Phillips resided in the "North Dist. Hopewell Township." Enoch W. Drake likely bought the property as an investment and never lived on it. He died in 1905 at his home of 15 years on Broad St. Hopewell.

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. The stones are quite faded because of their age. I believe William's grandmother was Eleanor Clayton who married Joseph Taylor ca. 1725. I believe her father was John Clayton and his wife Alice _____. I have very little information on the Claytons and have not seen Raymond Bell's book on the Clayton's (although I have seen his research on another family of mine in PA). If this family is mentioned in Raymond's Bell's book I'd love to pay you for a copy of the relevant pages. -----Original Message----- From: Anita G Clayton <rclaytonsr@juno.com> To: NJHUNTER-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Thu, 26 May 2005 19:59:09 -0400 Subject: [NJHUNTER] road surveys, also Claytons in Ohio >May I ask whether you still have access to that film?

Sharon, There is a BELLIS homestead located along KUHL Road, which I have never seen. It is somewhere between Copper Hill and Reaville and is marked by an historical marker. The original log structure was built by immigrant Adam BOLLESFELD (BELLIS) circa 1740, but the house that's there now was built in the 1750's. I don't have any info on the ROCKEFELLER homestead, sorry.

There is an every-name index for Snell's book and it is available online, if you or your library or school subscribes to HeritageQuest.

To view it, go to HeritageQuest and click on "Search Books," and then on "Search Publications," and then either browse for "[Index to Snell's" being sure to include the bracket in front of "Index," or go to advanced search and put in "Snell" for author and "Hunterdon" for title keyword.

No. But the Hunterdon County Historical Society in Flemington owns the microfilm. I use it all the time. The issues are not complete from the 1880s to 1900, but once into the 20th century it goes well into the 1930s almost every weekly issue. The High Bridge Gazette also covers northern Hunterdon, but does not start until about 1903 up to 1966 and after that you must use the Hunterdon Review.

If I remember correctly, the NJ State Archives has a copy of the index, as well. I believe it is in the research room, in the book section, on the Hunterdon shelf. There is an index available through Heritage Quest. Many public libraries offer their patrons access from home with an internet connection and their library card. I have access through the Hunterdon County Library. If you have a card with them, go to their website http://www.hunterdon.lib.nj.us/ and click on electronic resources. Scroll down and click on Heritage Quest. Enter your library card number (from the back of the card), and you're in. If you are not in Hunterdon County, check with your local library to see if they have any electronic resources available, either at the library, or accessible from home. Helen

Hi All, Does anyone know of a JACOB HUMMER b.1781 who married MARY/MARIA McFERSON in Feb 1803 in Baptistown, Hunterdon Co., NJ? I don't know what happened to him. Jacob's siblings: 1)ANNA HUMMER (1757-1818 m.John LOW)) 2)ELIZABETH HUMMER (b.@1765 m. Geo. PICKLE) 3)MARY HUMMER (@1768-1801) m. Peter HUFFMAN) 4)MARGARET HUMMER (b. 1771 m. Mathias GEARHART) 5)SARA HUMMER (b.1774 m. Isaac LODER) Jacob's parents were Jacob Hummer(1728-1788) and Maria___. They resided in Lebanon Twp, Hunterdon Co. Jacob's grandparents were Harbert Hummer (Hommer) 1698-1766 and Anna Eva Kolsher who resided in Somerset Co. and owned properties in Lebanon Twp. as well as Amwell Twp. Harbert is buried at Larison's Corner, Amwell Twp., Hunterdon Co. I was fortunate enough to visit Larison's Corner Cemetery, Amwell Twp., last month. Quite a few of the tombstones are old and difficult to decipher. I'll send a few pics of Larisons Corner Cemetery in a subsequent email.It is absolutely gorgeous!!!

Dear Anita Clayton, Many thanks for the information you put on the Hunterdon site. May I ask whether you still have access to that film? If you do, and if it's not asking too much, could you please look for OSBORN, if there is an index of surnames? Sorry to say, I no longer can get to a Mormon FHC, and I'd be very, very grateful to have help on this. I also want to mention the fact that I am researching CLAYTON in the East (PA and MD and other states) and in Ohio. One of my ancestors was Mary Clayton. She married a Wintro, who was from Adams or York counties in PA. Mary was the daughter of Thomas Clayton (or Claton), living in Warren County, Ohio. I'm not sure where her family came from. I have a coverlet made by her.
