Sorry Bill, for the error in Jane Barne's birth! She was born Oct. 1716, married William Forster about 1734, and died Dec. 7, 1797. William Forster was born 1710. I rather doubt that he was a preacher when he was sent to America in 1720 or 1725. A little young, don't you think? I wonder what the English Society for the Propagation of the Gospel had in mind when they shipped him off! Jane Barnes was the daughter of Underhill Barnes, born 1693, died 1712 (quite young!) His lineage can be traced back to Edward Barnes, b. 1580, died 1657. Jane's mother was Miriam Baxter, b.1696. Her lineage can be traced back to George Baxter, b. 1600 I got my information from Carsten Johnson, Historian of Pleasantville, Westchester Co., NY.

Jean, How do I get in contact with Carsten Johnson?? I have a couple of things he may be able to help me with. I didn't know there was an Historian in Pleasantville. I had such rotten luck with the one in Eastchester a few years ago that I gave up on smalltown Historians. I haven't tried the Ossining Historian since my cousin Bill Browne died...he was a gem and sadly missed.
