V's father was yet, but it stands to reason that his mother's maiden name began with a "V". Was Wm. W's middle name the same as his mother's maiden name? In those days it seems that patterns of naming were followed; therefore, Wm. V. may have been a younger son of a Wm., or a John, simply because of his own sons' names. Crazy? Maybe, but it's a reasonable starting point, and two heads are better than one. Please keep me posted at clancey@frontiernet.net.

Brunswick became part of Cranbury. William W had a son Edgar and on his death record it states his father William was born in Cranbury. I could never find anything in Cranbury about the family. Have you been able to find out who William V's father was? Thats as far as I have gotten. They are buried in Fernwood in Jamesburg. For William V, I believe he died in 1869 and Martha in 1881 I believe. He also had a son Newton who died in 1871 age 21. William W and his wife Elizabeth and a few children are there. One son I found an article where he was killed working on the railroad tracks in Jersey City. I never thought to look in the Hightstown Newspapers.

I have some type-written genealogy notes passed on to me from John Matthew Govelitz. It only covers families with birthdates through the 1950's with a few others penciled in, and I think I have almost everyone sorted out. I have a few I'm not sure of and I think the problem is with the original Govelitz. I have _____Govelitz with sons George Vincent (my husband's line), Joseph, and John Michael. Were there other sons (or daughters)? I have pages for Michael Gavaletz and Steve Gavaletz that I think must be brothers to the first 3. Are they? Do you know anything of their immigration? The closest I have found are these records: New York Passenger Lists, 1820-1957 Name: Gyorgy gavaliez Estimated Birth Year: abt 1875 Age: 18 Gender: Male Port of Departure: Rotterdam Place of Origin: German Ship Name: Spaarndam This is the right age for our George Govelitz, but I don't know if this is correct. I would appreciate any help you can give me in sorting through this, especially if you know anything further back than I have.--Amy Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

The Hightstown newspaper had an article re: John, son of Wm. V. dying in the Battle of Winchester in 1864. His mother, Martha, applied for a pension based on her son's service.

Lois has the info from it which tells that they were both from Rahway and were married in Elizabeth. We feel certain that he was a member of the Annin family of Somerset Co but nothing to prove it. We had hoped their parents' names would have been on the marriage bond or license. Now we will search for christening records.

First would be the County Clerk's Register of Minister's Returns. Second would be the actual church record, if married by a minister in a church. For the time frame of 1795 through the late 1870s, the County Clerk's did have the responsibility to record the returns from minister's of the marriages they performed in the county. These are available on microfilm through a local FHC or by contacting the NJ State Archives via the Mail Reference services for County Marriage Records at: http://www.njarchives.org/links/reference.html Basically, civil marriage records vary depending on the time frame you're researching in NJ. Prior to 1795, early statehood and colonial, parties were required to obtain a marriage bond. The surviving colonial marriage bonds cover the time frame of 1680s through about 1800. In 1795, the state empowered the County Clerks to record the minister's marriage returns. This continued through the year 1878 or when the civil registration law was expanded (changed). The ending year varies with each county, but most are the 1870s. In May 1848, the state enacted its first state-wide civil registration law for births, marriages and deaths. This required local clerks to compile the vital events in their locality and forward the "return" to Trenton once a year (mainly in May and June). These Register Books are a bound collection of the annual returns for the municipality. This collection covers the years May 1848 through May 1878. In 1878, the state changed or expanded the vital registration legislation and changed from the register of returns to the use of individual certificates for each vital event. Hence, the creation of a birth/marriage/death certificate. The use of certificate began in June 1878, however some earlier events 1877/78 do have certificates "attached" to the Register of Returns pages of the municipality. Hope this helps!
