Hi I checked the Snedeker book and the only Edgar I found with birth date close to yours was born March 1864. #9871 in the book. His parents were living in Rockland Co, NY. Your Florence Holcombe interests me also since my cousin married a Jack Holcombe and lived in Monmouth Co, NJ His family were from Ohio but I know there is another Holcombe in NJ not related.

They were both killed in an auto accident on 9/21/1919 and left behind one son (my grandfather) who was later adopted My grandfather's place of birth is also listed as South Amboy, so I'm assuming that is where they resided. I have two other names with the mention that they might be the parents of one of these people - George Blum and Ann Evans (not sure how that works due to the last names).

Can anyone recommend a professional genealogist working in or familiar with the Middlesex area? I have made a tentative link to an ancestor on my husband's side who lived in that area in the 1700s and early 1800s, but it's possible I could have mixed him up with someone else with a similar name and leaped to an unwarranted conclusion. I feel that a professional might be better able to sort out the facts than I could, especially since I don't live in New Jersey and am not likely to travel there for research. I'd appreciate your referrals. Nancy/Atlanta

Good morning, During the day yesterday I tried to learn more about Woodbridge, NJ, where two MOORE brothers moved to in the 1660's. A little on-line investigating showed that the township was probably named after .. Rev. John WOODBRIDGE "of Newbury, MA." I placed a few queries last evening, and I heard from someone this morning who told me that Rev. WOODBRIDGE ..never.. moved to NJ. Of the years he was in "the Colonies," he always remained in MA. One of the sites I found last night was a page of the NJ Historical Society web site which states: "Woodbridge Township was named after Reverend John Woodbridge of Newbury, Massachusetts, and was settled mostly by puritan descendants from New England. The original township was comprised of sixty families." This statement is ..VERY.. misleading. Also, several references show that the two MOORE brothers went to NJ in 1666. And, yet the above web page says that the township was established in 1669. I was wondering if anyone had a list of the 60 families who initially settled the Woodbridge Township. I am wondering if they all came from the same town or towns in the MA Bay Colony. The main reason I am asking is that I would like to find out if Samuel and Matthew MOORE had siblings move to NJ with them (or MOORE or GREENLEAF cousins). FYI: It seems that the extended WOODBRIDGE family had several ministers among them, and one went to Hartford, CT. FYI: I went to look at the Archives of the WOODBRIDGE List last evening, and was quite surprised to find out that no one had posted to the List in almost 2 years, and there were no more than (total) 6 messages. Is that not a common name? FYI: I wonder if anyone has access to books on the MOORE brothers, or in particular to their father, Francis MOORE, of 1600's Cambridge, MA. I am interested in finding a complete list of all of Francis and Catherine MOORE's children.

Hello, In my attempt to find out more about the extended family of Francis MOORE of 1600's Cambridge, MA, I had already found out that two of his sons ended up in Woodbridge, NJ. This morning, I tried to find out more about Woodbridge, NJ, and the town's web site offered a "brief history" saying that it was "the oldest township" and that it was named after .. Rev. John WOODBRIDGE of Newbury, MA. Probably in the 1650's, Samuel MOORE and Matthew MOORE left Cambridge, MA, and moved to Newbury, MA. Their father, Francis MOORE, had a large mansion and farm in Cambridge, MA, but his sister, Mrs. Sarah (MOORE) GREENLEAF and her husband had settled in early Newbury, MA. I read that Samuel and Matthew and their families probably moved to NJ in 1666. Some of their siblings remain unaccounted for, and I am wondering if any of them went to NJ with them. I am also wondering if Rev. John WOODBRIDGE possibly gathered many families from his Parish in Newbury, MA, and they all moved to NJ together. I am limited to research I can do with the Internet, and have not been successful in finding out about books and articles written about Francis MOORE of Cambridge, MA. However, I changed my tactics this morning, and did a Google search for his father, Enoch MOORE, and was more successful. By doing this I have found out that there was a book published about Francis MOORE, but I don't find any other references to it. My main research is the KIDDER name (9 years), and the patriarch, James KIDDER, married Anna MOORE, daughter of Francis MOORE. They probably married in Cambridge, MA, in 1649, and moved to Billerica, MA, ~1656. They had 12 children. As far as on-line research goes, there were a dozen or more MOORE men in the 1600's MA Bay Colony, and people only seem to be "guessing" as to whether they were related or not. Several of them only remained in MA for a few years before moving to other states, like NY and CT. Thank you for your time.

Surnames: Hulick, Lott, Tait, Monday, Shumard Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zQB.2ACE/1549.4.1.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I don't have any documentation that my 4th great grandfather John Hulick was a tavern owner, it's possible though, he lived in the area at that time. What information that I have about John is from the National Archives including his military records and a copy of his bible records. I also have copies of records for his family from the 1st Presbyterian Church of Cranbury, NJ where he was a member. In his opening statement of his pension file he states the following: "On this 6th day of August in the year of our Lord 1832 personally appeared in Open Court before the Honorable Court of Common Pleas for said County John Hulick a resident of the County of Clermont and the State of Ohio, aged 77 years, being first duly sworn according to law doth, on his oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the Act of Congress passed June 7, 1832". "That he entered the service of the United States under the following named officers and served as herein stated. That he was born in Somerset County, New Jersey, on the twelfth day of November in the year seventeen hundred fifty four, and removed (as he has been informed) to Middlesex County in the same state at when he was about three years old, and continued to reside in that county about nine miles from New Brunswick in a place called the South Ward of New Brunswick until he removed to the western country". I am not from this area and I am not able to find the South Ward, Rhode Hall or Ten Mile Run on the earliest map that I have (1895)of Middlesex County, NJ. Is this near Kingston, Cranbury or Hightstown, NJ? The following is also from his pension record. Personally appeared in open Court Edward Kinnan of lawful age ( a resident of said Clermont County) who being duly sworn according to law doth on his oath state that he knew John Hulick in the State of New Jersey in Middlesex County near Hightstown. First saw him in the year 1790. Deponents father owned a mill there and the said John Hulick the present applicant ( for the benefit of the Act of Congress dated June 7th 1832)came to the mill. Are there records of mill owners for this area and time period? Any help greatly apreciated, sincerely, Jim Weaver
