    1. [NJUnion] NJ to OH re: letters 1825-1837
    2. The first Nancy DeCamp mentioned in the will must be wife of William, on records as Ann, last name unknown. Read further for my reasons. Correction .... the 2nd Nancy Williams in Benjamin's will is Elizabeth wife of Stephen Crane Will abstact NJ Calendar of Wills 1791-1795 p 399 1792, November 7 Williams, Benjamin of Elizabeth Twp, Essex Co; Wife Sarah (Marsh) 1/3 of personal property. 1 mare and income of real estate untill eldest son, Marsh is 21. Eldest son Marsh, 7 acres of home plantation with house and 5 acres of woodland bought of David Mills. Sons, David, Abraham, and John, remainder fo home plantation divided between, when of age. Land in the Miamies, Columbia TWP, (Ohio), divided between the 4 sons. Oldest daughter, Sarah, privilege of living at home and L60 (pound of money), Daughter Nancy DeCamp, L5, Daughters Margeret and Elizabeth Williams, each L60, when 18. Residue to the 4 sons. Executors-friends, Ephraim Marsh and James Ross. Witnesses- Daniel Baker, Henry Baker and David Rogers. Proved June 25, 1793. Lib. 33, p 193 1793, June 13, Inventory, L533.0.3; made by Jehabod Ross and Charles Clark. file 7814-7817G This leads me to believe that Ann, wife of William DeCamp (son of Lambert DeCamp, Jr.) is Nancy in the will. John Marsh D'Camp (son of William & Ann/Nancy) mentions Grandfather Hatfield, 2nd husband of Sarah Marsh Williams, also Uncle Abraham W (it looks like W after the name is a Williams), Uncle Marsh W., Uncle David W., Uncle John W, & his son John Augustus Williams, Aunt Sally, Aunt Margeret (could she have married a Scudder?)
