John Jones married Mary MNU in the region of Berks Co PA by 1740. They were not Quakers during the first decade of their marriage. They were received at Exeter MM (previously Oley MM) on 28 Jan 1751. Exeter Township was formed in Philadelphia Co PA, and became part of Berks Co PA at its creation in Oct 1751. On 26 Jul 1753, John and Mary Jones received a certificate from Exeter MM to Cane Creek MM in Orange Co NC; their certificate was received by Cane Creek on 6 Oct 1753. On 4 Feb 1769, the family was granted a certificate from Cane Creek MM to Fredericksburgh MM (Camden SC). They were residents of the Bush River community at the first meeting of Bush River MM on 4th month 1772, and then constituent members of Wrightsborough MM (St. Paul's Parish GA) when it was set off from Bush River MM on 4da 12mo 1774. Despite continuous membership in five different monthly meetings, there is no extant family record re the births of the Jones children. John Jones died at Wrightsborough MM on 9 Jun 1781; Mary Jones died there on 9 Oct 1802. The first record that definitely pertains to this couple was the christening of their third child, Phillipina Christina Jones, born May 1746, christened 31 Aug 1746 by the Rev. John Casper Stoever. The Rev. Stoever, of Lancaster Co PA, performed many marriages and baptisms at Lutheran congregations throughout southeastern PA and adjoining provinces. The Jones child was baptized at Atolhoe in then-Lancaster Co PA. The congregation became known as Altalaha, located in Rehrersburg in western Berks Co PA. Baptismal sponsors were Florian Bübinger (transcribed Burringer) and his wife Phillipina Christina. For Lutheran baptisms, the sponsor for whom the child was named was normally a close family connection, if not a close relative. Godmother Philipina Christina Mack was born 11 Aug 1707 in Schriesheim, Baden, daughter of Georg Conrad and Anna Margaretha Schwartz Mack. In 1729, Philipina Christina Mack accompanied her widowed mother Anna Margaretha on the ship Allen to Philadelphia. Most passengers were members of the Dunker (German Baptist Brethren) faith, started in 1708 by Alexander Mack, paternal uncle of Philipina Christina Mack. Alexander Mack and his three sons sailed on the same ship. All of the Macks settled in Lancaster Co. Anna Margaretha Schwartz Mack second-married Johannes Kitzmiller St. on 27 Oct 1730, and Philipina Christina Mack married Johannes Kitzmiller Jr. on 5 Jun 1731. Both weddings were performed by the Rev. John Casper Stoever at Earltown (Lancaster/Berks Co PA). Johannes and Philipina Christina Mack Kitzmiller had 6 children prior to his death in ~1745. Philipina Christina Mack Kitzmiller second-married Florian Bübinger on 4 Aug 1745 at Tulpehocken (near Womelsdorf PA), marriage performed by the Rev. John Casper Stoever. Florian Bübinger, b. ~1716, arrived in PA in 1738; he apparently had no family in PA. All of the Mack, Kitzmiller and Bübinger references place them in the northeastern quadrant of Lancaster Co that became western Berks Co in 1751. This is the region where John Jones would have become close enough to Philipina Christina Mack Kitzmiller Bübinger to name a child after her, and ask her to be the godmother. John Jones may possibly have had a German-born wife prior to marrying Mary by 1751. Nothing in the evidence requires two wives, although a span of more than 20 years for births of children can suggest that. At any rate, John and/or Mary lived in a predominantly-German community and "probably" had some connections with the Mack family. Historians of the Richard Gregory (1690-1765) family of Oley and Hereford Townships, Philadelphia/Berks Co PA, believe that his oldest daughter Mary Gregory (b. ~1720) married this particular John Jones. Richard Gregory's 1765 Berks Co PA will named his 15 children in birth order for boys, then girls. He was survived by wife Margretha, and his youngest children could read German but not English. His oldest daughter Mary was the wife of a John Jones in 1765; his second daughter Elizabeth was the wife of a George Mack. Margaretha Gregory, 5th daughter (of 8), was baptized in 1730 at New Goshenhoppen (Philadelphia/Berks Co PA) by the Rev. John Casper Stoever. At least five of the Gregory children relocated to Orange Co NC in the 1760's, and three of those continued south to Edgefield Co SC after the Revolution. These various coincidences (residence in same region, association with the German community, baptisms by same pastor, connection to Mack family, and the name Richard for the oldest Jones child) do not guarantee that the John Jones who married Mary Gregory was the same one who became a Quaker in 1751, but they tend to support the Gregory family's conclusions about the identity. The 1781 St. Paul's Parish will of John Jones lists his children in birth order. The 1746 birth of the third child, dates of marriage for the daughters, and the minor status of the two youngest sons as of 1781 provide enough information to approximate the dates and locations of birth for the 9 Jones children.

And, keep a close eye out for snakes, especially rattlesnakes. Rattlers are just coming out of their hibernation and are very cranky. Always carry a long stick and use it to beat ahead of you in thick brush. Snakes are shy and will crawl away from you if alerted, but will strike if cornered or suddenly surprised. Never kill a snake, unless bitten, especially non-poisonous ones, because they keep the mouse and rat population under control. If bitten, try to kill the snake to take with you for identification (non-poisonous ones will also bite) at a medical facility. If bitten, never panic and run because your blood flows faster and the venom works more quickly. It's also wise to take a snake bite kit with you, especially if you are far from help..   ************ I Support The Chester District Genealogical Society Richburg, S.C. http://www.compact2.net/chestergenealogical/index.asp ________________________________ From: Judith F.

Hello Everyone,   I have looked at this preliminary map several times and have shown it to a few people, I am uncertain though where it would be on an actual map. I am aware of the Bush River site but there are multiple sites targeted for restoration. Is there a map, pdf or picture with targeted sites identified for an overview? If not then maybe the location of the Pagett's Creek site. I would like to look at it on Google maps and also ther relations or distance of sites on Google maps. I am very excited over the work being done here!   Robert Henspert Cooper "Little Robert"     ________________________________ From: Judith F.

Mary Lou, I have read the History of Chester County and have referred to the James Embree family. I am almost positive there are a Moses I, Moses II and Moses III. I am strong on the line from Moses II to present day. Moses III son Jacob is a direct line for us. He is brother to Thomas Embree. I have the info on Moses I and Moses II from the book. I believe that Moses II is the son of Moses I and not Samuel. I also have found the Embree Family Papers by Emilou McDonald, http://www.etsu.edu/cass/archives/Collections/afindaid/a61.html These papers are located at the East Tenn State Univ in Johnson City TN. My husband and I are planning a trip to Johnson City to go to the library and to Embreeville TN. I am having trouble finding the Exeter Church records. What website? I show Robert Embree (father of Moses I) married to Mary Bassett. Documents are good from Mary Bassett's side. Moses Embree I (16 Dec 1652 to 1689) married to Mary Seaman (1672 to 1748) Source Documented Moses Embree II (1675 to 1748) married to Mary ? From trees on line I have connected him to Mary Southard Spragg (1672 to 1749). No real documentation except for Family Data Collection. Moses Embree III (26 Jan 1719 to 14 Feb 1795) married to Margaret Elleman (25 Jun 1731 to 1807) I have alot of documentation on this Moses Embree and his son Jacob and on down the line. I have only found records starting in 1717 connecting Moses Embree II to the Quaker Church. I appreciate any help that you can provide.

Lydia, Futhey and Cope's History of Chester County has some information about the early Embree family. They were French Hugenots and setled in New York, New Rocelle, and the north side of Long Island. There is also a book titled "Trail of the Hugenots" by Reman, republished by the Genealogical Publishing Co. that specifically places one Moses and a brother Robert John at Flushing, New York. I googled New York Quaker records on line, and found that some are included in Hinshaw, Vol. 3. From pages that were reproduced on line it would appear that the records are too recent to include the early Moses I or II. Whatever New York Quaker records there are are at Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania. I will look carefully at the New York Volume of Hinshaw when I am in the library on Saturday. Moses and Mary (probably Bailey) were married at Exeter in 1745. Check Exeter Church records. Moses purchased land in Berks in 1737. I have a good deal of information about Moses and Margaret Elleman Embree, but I have found very little about the earlier Embrees. This may be because I have not searched New York records. I wonder when the Embrees became Quaker? Hope this helps a little. I'll be interested in any of the early information you might wish to share.
