*Source: The Asiatic journal and monthly miscellany, Volume 28 By East India Company Jan-Apr 1839 pg 223 (google books) Marriages: 12. At Agra, John Bean, Esq., to Miss Eveline Catherine Jekyll Ceronio.

I am in touch with an Australian woman who seems to connect to the CERONIO I research. They are distant from me, but do ultimately connect. It now appears James CERONIO, the son of Stephen, went with him, or at least left Philadelphia later, and wound up in India, marrying twice. The reason I feel certain of this without documentation of a solid nature is the oddball name of his daughter. Jekyll CERONIO. Now how many people in the universe would have a name like that? Jekyll was the name of Stephen CERONIO's mother-in-law. CERONIO is really rare as it is, let alone with a label like Jekyll. Still hoping someone local has some juicy tidbit, however obscure.

I'm now wondering if the Aussie James CERONIO is the same as James CERONIO the son of Stephen. I'm beginning to think Stephen was a privateer or something a lot like it. He is mentioned a considerable amount in a book entitled "Building Little Italy," by Richard Juliani (that part with Stephen, fortunately, is in the preview on Google Books. It appears Stephen took advantage of the William HICKS family estate to bleed some of the family members of their portion, then skipped - perhaps to the East Indies. I don't find much of anything on James, so maybe he went with his father?

I am researching Peter Keurlis, his children and their offspring. His daughter Martha, married Thomas Potts, Jr. at Abington MM in 1699. Two other sons went south to Concord Twnship and married Quakers. However another son, Johannes, married a Non-Quaker. The Phila. MM records list a Johan, son of Johan and Hannah Kearlin (Keurlis) among the buriels of Non -Quakers in Nov. 1713. What German non-Quaker religious organizations existed between 1690-1720 in Germantown and environs and where did they practice their faith? Thanks for your assistance. George Kirlin
