    3. I'm trying to find out any additional information about a Jemima Tomlinson. I have her listed in the 1850 Mercer (Trenton) census in the household of William Clofson (other spellings are Closson, Clauson, etc.). Family info. William Clofson age 46, pumpmaker, $10,000 b. NJ Margaret age 46 F, b. PA Samuel age 7 b. NJ Jemim(n?)a Tomlinson age 73 F B. PA I have wills for both William and Margaret, which hasn't helped solve this mystery. I have pretty good evidence in Margaret's will that her maiden name is VANSANT, not Tomlinson. They are both buried in Slate Hill Cemetary in Yardley, PA. Margaret has Quaker ties to the Hicksite meeting in Trenton as she left money to them in her will. Not sure about Wm. Closson. Could this be a mother of either Margaret or William, remarried? My connection to this woman would be very distant, but it might help me figure out some of the other pieces in this family that I need. I am related to Margaret Vansant Closson through my Wilson line. It looks like Margaret's sister is the mother of my great-great-great grandfather. (ie would be my 4x great grandmother). Any help appreciated. ===== Dova Wilson __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
