The only reference I saw to his burial was in the letters of Herman T Lukens. His letters are on LDS Tape #1420725. My notes say QUOTE Lukens Genealogy was being complied in 1937 by Herman T Lukens - letters of his on microfilm LDS TAPE 1420725 "Jan Lückens built house on "Grange Farm" where present shops on the No Broad St subway are located - Grange Ave & 11th St. Asks if he was buried at Abington. UNQUOTE I pass it on as it's interesting about the house, and I found it while digging for what I had on a burial place. To Gene S I thought that I looked at the microfilm transcription of the Lower Burial Ground in Germantown and couldn't find anything as early as Jan. Does that just mean that they were worn away when the transcription was done? Did anyone record the location or is the Lower Burial Ground just the usual for the times? Thanks, Nancy Caton
Jan Lukens was a original subscriber to the Lower Burial Ground in 1737. He is listed in the original record book. Unfortunately, burials were not recorded until 1755. Jan is probably there but there is no indication as to where. The Lower Burial Ground is administered by the Germantown Historical Society (GHS) and I am on the Board of Directors of the cemetery as liaison with GHS. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nancy Caton" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, September 28, 2000 6:38 PM Subject: [ORIGINAL-13] Jan Lukens burial > The only reference I saw to his burial was in the letters of Herman T > Lukens.
