Here's more info concerning the probable ancestry of the two signers, William E. Page and Charles H. Page, below: Several years ago I went to the local L.D.S. Family History Library to check on Pages of Penn. and N.J. There I found a submission (AF83-033775 by Margot Elizabeth Page in 1983) of the line of Thomas Stokes Page who m. Anna Maria Liljevalch, from whom a friend of mine in Santiago, Chile, is descended. She is descended via: Charles Page; Charles Randolph Page; and, Thomas Stokes Page and his 1st wife, Helen Marie de Limur. During the California Gold Rush Thomas Stokes Page (1815-1872 in San Francisco, Calif.) sailed by ship as far as Valpariso, Chile, where he stayed for sometime to raise a family whose descendants still are in Chile! He finally got to California and died there. Thomas Stokes Page was the son of Gilbert and Atlantic (French) Page (1784-1862), a Moorestown, NJ, merchant, who was the son of a Thomas Page (1745-1828) who married in 1769 Alice Scott. Thomas was the son of a William Page of Mansfield, Burlington Co., N.J., who married a Mary [Williams ? on 17 March 1742, see I.G.I.]. The Harriet Page who married Isaac Johnson on 4 Oct. 1812 was probably Gilbert's sister. The Isaac Johnson was possibly related to the Isaac, Nathaniel and John Johnson of Massachusetts and Connecticut. Several of the family lived in Branford, CT., and intermarried with other Pages, as well as many other families. The immigrant ancestor, John Johnson, arrived in Salem, Mass., with his family with Winthrop's first fleet on June 22, 1630. Those other entries from Burlington County are also probably related. In 1793 that there was a Dr. William Page from the Township of Eveshram, County Burlington, who was enrolled as part of the Militia of New Jersey. Per the I.G.I., there was another William Page who m. Susanna Banks on 25 July 1705 in Philadelphia who was perhaps William's father. There was a will written on 26 June 1754 by John Page of Chesterfield, N.J., which was proved on 6 Sept. 1754. It mentions his wife, Sophia, and their two sons, Asa and Henry Page, both under age. The name of Asa was very common among the Pages of Connecticut and Mass.. George W. Page _____________- At 08:54 PM 10/23/2000 -0400, you wrote: >This appeared on another list.
