REBECCA STERN is my brickwall. She was my 3 gr.grandmother. I know she was the mother of 6 children by THOMAS BULLOCK of Burlington County. Thomas was b. 1781 but do not have Rebecca's birth date nor place. Her first child was born 1813 so I assume Rebecca was born circa 1790+. The first child was John Bullock, my 2gr.grandfather. I have no marriage record but she and Thomas were granted a divorce by NJ legislature in 1829. In 1820, Thomas ran an ad in the NJ Mirror saying he was not responsible for any debts of "my wife, Rebecca." so am assuming a marriage. In a lawsuit that involved them both, all 6 children were claimed "legitimate" altho' the first was born "before the marriage." Thomas inherited funds from an uncle - by- marriage, John Butcher. After his divorce, Thomas married ANN ROBBINS FOSTER, widow, in Hunterdon Co., May 7, 1834. Rebecca died, according to legal papers, July 10, 1839, whereabouts unknown. Any clue to the origins of REBECCA STERN would be appreciated. Mayann Ross, Ft. Myers, FL. MaizieAnn@aol.com
