I am looking for McGee ancestors, specifically a James McGee supposedly born in new jersey 18 apr 1781, died 24 apr 1872 whose spouse was a Mary from Bedford, pa. he lived in bloomfield twp around 1825 where my g grandfather was born. I have no info on him as to where he may have been born, buried, or who is parents were, cannot locate him on new jersey census. Any help would be appreciated. Names were sometimes spelled differently on old census records.

Betty, I don't think that I can help you because I don't know much about the Magees/McGees myself. I think there is relationship even with the two spellings. Here are a couple of web sites: http://www.mymcgee.com/web/gedsource/s66/s66.html (that one hasn't helped me, but maybe it would you.) http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~flhs/ That's where I found the most information helpful to me. I only have personal research for William Magee and his son William Finley Magee and not much of that. They are supposedly both buried in the Shade Gap Cemetery, but I only found the headstone for the father: http://hobbits8.net/getperson.php?personID=I698&tree=PLH There is lots of space around him for more. I think I discovered my McMath connection from the vertical files at the Huntingdon County Historical Society and then they had a copy of Mike Gifford's book on the McMaths.
