    1. John & Levi Solomon
    2. The following was obtained from Kindred Konnections. Source: Jonas Solomon Family Bible Jonas Solomon wife, Hannah Applegate born @1725 New Jersey Married Dec. 27, 1757 at Monmouth, NJ Children: Birthdate Catherine April 18, 1758 NJ John Nov 18, 1760 NJ Rebeckah Feb 15, 1765 NJ Levi Nov 10, 1767 NJ Jonas Sep 29, 1768/1769 NJ Nebuchadnezzar Mar 14, 1774 NJ William (did not live to adulthood per family lore, was not listed in family Bible) Note: The Kindred Konnection file goes on to state John (born in Freehold, Monmouth, NJ) was alive Mar 15, 1782 per Revolutionary War info. Also lists the children of Levi and his wives: Catherine Hilsey and Eliza Roena Cook. Other sources I have encountered listing John and Levi as sons of Peter have listed Levi's birthdate as Nov. 10, 1767. This seems suspiciously coincidental. The source from W. G. Solomon Bible Records states John spent time in Coffee County, GA. Coffee County was formed in 1855; John born 1760 would have been 95 years old at the time. There were John Solomons in Cofffee Cty; but I suspect not this particular one. As shown on this list, the W. G. Solomon Bible records state Lazarus was born in Washington County, GA and, later in the same post, in Washington County, NC. I suspect this emanates from the fact that Lazarus came to Georgia from North Carolina and settled first in Washington County, GA before later settling in Twiggs County. I personally am not comfortable accepting John and Levi unequivocally as the sons of Peter until further investigation can be accomplished. Nieca Sharrard
