    3. This was meant for the list. Here it is: Vince: My husband descends from an early Philadelphia Warner line. They arrived before William Penn, abt 1670, and were part of the Swedish settlement. Here is what I have: "Elizabeth Warner (born about 1714) was a daughter of Swen Warner and Ester Warner (his first cousin, of Radnor MM), and a granddaughter of William and Christian Warner of Gloucester County, NJ. This grandmother, Christian or Christina, is thought to be a daughter of Svann Skuuta (Lieutenant Sven Schute) who received from Queen Christina of Sweden, August 20, 1653, the first grant of lands now forming part of the City of Philadelphia. Sven, 1688-1761, and Ester, 1686-1740, Warner are buried in Philadelphia. Sven is buried at Friends Burying Ground, and Elizabeth in the Friends ground on Race Street.* Elizabeth had two known brothers, Isaiah, who died 1716, and Joseph, who died 1780. Elizabeth Warner married Philip Syng, Jr. about 1730 at Christ Church. They had eighteen children." *Don't know if these burial grounds are one and the same. Kathy Kelly
