Several Questions: 1. Does anyone know about a Quaker meeting in Trenton as of the 1870's at the NW corner of Hanover and Montgomery streets? Which meeting was this (sect)? Does it still exist? Do the streets exist? Where can I find records about the meeting? My understanding is that I need to consult Swarthmore College in Philadelphia for Quaker records, but perhaps the NJ archives has records from this meeting as well? 2. Researching the following families with possible ties to this Quaker meeting: A. 1877 will of Margaretta Closson, widow of William Closson,lists a $500 amount for the Preparative Meeting of the Society of Friends (called Quakers) at the above address; the interest of the above sum to be used in keeping said property in repair. Margaretta Closson is of interest to me due to her listing her nephew, Cortland Wilson (or Courtland), in her will. I am a direct descendant of him. B. Vansant Family- she lists her brother as Cornelius Vansant, so I assume that her maiden name is Margaretta Vansant. C. She also lists relatives: Mary Ann Baker and Sarah Kulp- nieces, James Windsor-nephew, and her late husband's niece Jane McGarvey. Also her cousin Fannie Walker, wife of Benjamin Walker of Philadelphia. >From the above information in the will I assume that she was Margaretta Vansant who married William Closson. Also, she had one brother named Cornelius Vansant and a number of sisters, one who married a Wilson, one who married a Baker, one who married a Kulp, and one who married a Windsor. *** I am particularly interested in finding out about the Vansant sister who married a Wilson, as I do not know who Courtland Wilsons' parents were. Any help or ideas on any of this?? Dova Wilson Communications Officer IREX dwilson@irex.org 202-628-8188 x544
