I believe they are all from Hunterdon Co. My ggrandmother was Mary Tinsman Johnson b 7/6/1864 d 2/12/1958 married to Elijah Lott Rockafellow. Her parents were William Johnson ( a nice unusual name) and Margaret Boss. Thats where my info Hello Sharon, I would love to try to help you with your MARY TINSMAN JOHNSON as I have done much research on the TINSMAN family and it is an unusual name. Please let me know if you have any other information about her. Sally in Maine

Sally, How nice of you to respond. Since moving to Vermont 4 years ago, my NJ research has all but halted, and most of the info I have on this side of the family has come from either the Rockafellow book or research done by a great aunt for the DAR. My mother and aunts remember their grandmother quite well, so I will have to grill them and see if I can gather any other facts from them. They seem to remember different things at different times. The only other bit I have is that the announcement of her marriage in the Hunterdon Gazette says she was from Everittstown NJ, which is the general area for all of this side of the family. Since she was 19 at the time of her marriage, I'm assuming (oh that word) that her parents were also in that area. Thanks for any help you can give me.
