Perhaps they could be of help. Thought I'd pass the info along to you. Maybe they have a web site. If not I'm sure you could find a snail mail address. Good luck with your research. Carol-Anne

Best idea I have had is to look through ship manifests, and my going theory is that Curriden is an anglicanization of the Scottish name Gordon. Just a theory, and thanks for the info.

There are columns which indicate the number of males and females of varying ages in a household. There is no way to determine the names of Philip Curriden's parents as he is not listed by name. Additionally, Ancestry does not have 1880 census data available for New Jersey. A "Philip Curriden" is listed in 1830 Census in Upper Penns Neck, NJ but again no family member names. Carol-Anne

Hi again, Here is a site from Canada that lists a famous "Black List" from trials in Philadelphia, PA., which lists those accused of High Treason, printed in 1802.

Hello All. My mother told me a few days ago that a cousin of mine had recently died and I was wondering if someone could find a copy of the obit for me? I believe she lived in the Salem area , her (maiden) name was Dana Lou Clair age 42 other living family members are > sister's Karen and Elizabeth (or Liz) Ann , and brother Charles (or Chuck) Clair I don't know about the last name as our families have been out of touch and I really don't know if she was married or not, it would have been sometime in the past month (since Jan 1st at least) but I was unable to find it through any newspapers online that I have bookmarked. Please email me direct if you find it . Thanks in advance. ida macken [email protected]

Hi listers, Here's a site I found that is a great help and resource for many questions of research in New Jersey. Joan > Try this: <A HREF="http://www.njgen.com/counties.htm">http://www.njgen.com/counties.htm</A>

Molli, I have real early Shulls, the original spelling was Scholl. Johannes Scholl and Katterena where born in Germany 1684 and 1697. They had 5 children. The only Reuben I have was born about 1753 and married Naomi Davis in 1783. The only children I have for them is a Nancy and Jacob Parvin Shull. If I come fined anything more I will let you know.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/oRB.2ACI/643 Message Board Post: I'm looking for information on the SHULL family in the early 1800's. According to the 1830 Federal Census, some are listed in Pilesgrove, Salem County, NJ. The SHULLs I'm looking for are: **Reuben b.7-4-1778 d.9-7-1824 **Hosea b.9-26-1802 d. 3-4-1848 (married Ann Winings 5-3-1838). I believe Hosea was married previously to Ann because one of the five children was born before the marriage date. They children were: Edward, David, George C., Henry S., and Daniel. **Azariah b. 9-8-1804 **Reuben b. 3-25-1807 **Levicey b.1-22-1809 **Lydia b.1-20-1811 **Sendola b.10-23-1814 **Jonathan b.5-31-1821 (married Rebecca ?? b.6-13-1819) They had three children: Catharine, Charles and Thomas - according to the 1880 Census. I also have a Nancy Miller listed born 1-2-1817. I'm not sure if she's someone's wife or if she was a SHULL and married a man named Miller. I don't know if these family members were born in Pilesgrove or just lived there for some time. Unfortunately, all I have are names and dates. I'm stuck on this branch of my tree. Hosea is my ggg-grandfather. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
