Posted on: Morris County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NJ/Morris/1795 Surname: Bunnell, Bunnel, Bonnell, Bonnel, Bonnal ------------------------- Still looking for positive proof of marriage and parents of Benjamin Bunnell/Bonnell who married Sarah/Sally Jones around or before 1779 in New Jersey/New York, not sure if possible Pennsylvania? Sarah Jones could be from the Jones family of Bergen Co., NJ and possibly the brother of ex.loyalist Edward Jones. Ben could have been married before to Eleanor Fox and moved or lived in Pennsylvania c. 1773? Ben's parents could be Thomas Bonnel of Menham/Hanover, Morris Co., NJ d.c.April 1790. or possibly Gershom Bunnell and Margaret Johnson of Connecticut. Their son Ben b.c. 1747 disappears and this family has many loyalists in it.

Marsha Bybee and all, Can anyone identify Jacob Themout married to Elizabeth Febers?

The votes are in , and all point to a stallion for hire. I would have thought it a variation of a saw horse or some such, much as a 'chair' is actually a single axle carriage. Thanks to all who replied. Mele Kalikimaka from hot Hawaii! Kevin

Not a horse person, but an interesting term. My Funk & Wagnalls says that "to cover" in horsey terms is "to copulate". Thus the one labelled as such would be a stud. Learn something new everyday, don't we? Here's one for you all ----- Did you know that Plymouth (sorry, PLIMOTH) was the THIRD settlement in the New World by the English? Jamestown was 1607 (all died out in a couple of years), Popham Maine was a few months after Jamestown (everyone returned about a year later), then Plimoth in 1620, which was actualy the first one to be successful. Sorry - just trying to maintain some touch with the real world. Things are much more topsy turvy than normal in my neck of the woods. Cheers to all and to all a good night!

Hello Kevin and Hello Sue, Golly, you did stir an old lady's brain cells today. When I read Kevin's question, I thought I knew the answer but spent the day tryng to remember and doing other old lady activities. When I read Sue's answer, it all came back to me. Sue, you are absolutely right, that is what they called the stallion or stud horse so many years ago. Thanks for the stirring, folks.

I am doing research on the DeMouth family - looking for info re Jirah and wife Malinda- Morris Co NJ Marsha Bybee Soda Springs, ID

Hi Kevin, I'm a horse person, so I'd like to offer my best guess. When a mare is bred by a stallion, she is said to be "covered" by him. I would say that a "covering horse" might be a stallion, a stud horse. I would imagine that a stud horse would have a greater value than a mare or a gelding (neutered male) because of the potential stud fees. I'd be interested to hear if there are any other explanations.

The new " Passaic County Historical Society Web Site"- By Annita Zalenski is now on line.Go to http://www.geocities.com/pchslc/

While searching the tax records of Albert Alyea, I see he was taxed on a 'covering horse'. Would anyone have any idea what this was? I have seen other people also taxed on them, sometimes spelled coverning horse. Any ideas? Take care, Kevin

I do not know if everyone knows that there is a new list or rather many new lists offering the potential for actual census lookups. There is a lookup list for each state of the union. New Jersey's is [email protected] to subscribe either click on the link below or send a message to [email protected] mailto:[email protected] in the message portion put one word: subscribe There are certain rules for the list and I am paraphrasing (I do not own the NJ list) so if the listowner of the NJ Census lookup list would like to correct my attempts at the rules, please feel free to do so. 1. in the subject put the census year/county/surname 1. if possible, try to to find out the page number from the Census index by going to Ancestry or on the CD's. (ancestry is running a free trial right now) To sign up for the free trial go to The information you would find there would be, for example: James Gardner, Bergen Co, NJ; page 076; Bergen Twp. Federal Population Schedule, NJ 1830 from the Federal Census index for 1840 it would be this: James Gardner, Hudson Co, NJ; page 203; Bergen Twp. Federal Population Schedule, NJ 1840 2. Ask for only one census year at a time and for one or two people at a time (please do not ask for "all" the Browns or Smiths) 3. remember that there is no one assigned to do lookups; if someone has access to census records or indexes, they will look it up for you provided they have the time. 4. All queries on census requests and replies should go to the list and not be sent in private email. 5. If no one has access to that particular census, then you will receive no answer, so don't get upset or write curt notes to the list wondering why your lookup has not been done. There is absolutely no charge for this service and I have no stake in this; I just would like to pass along the information just, in case, some of you don't know about it. Please consider joining the list and offering lookups; even if it is just to check a county and year for a person to find if they are there and to give them the page from the index. -- Diane Ward Sives
