WARNER. Their daughter, ELIZABETH WARNER married PHILIP SYNG JR the
silversmith who made the inkwell used in the signing of the Declaration of
Independence and the Constitution.

e-mail ; gme@nwinfo.net
and ; sj@censusmicrofilm.com
I was lured to order several microfilm copies from this company with
"guarantees" of "speedy delivery" and "low price" .
My order was placed in October of 1998 and as of this posting I have not
received the order or a refund after numerous contacts with Steven Jensen at
this firm .
I recently recently found an ancestor of mine Margaret Gordon b. abt. 1750.
She married Job Mercer(Messer) in the Old Swedes Church in Wilmington
Delaware. The index I'm told says Meyer but the original record has it as
Messer with the characteristic old world double 's'. I have information
from Job to present but little on Margaret. She had 16 children the first
of which were born in neighboring Chester Co. PA. It appears they moved to
Frederick Co., VA by 1800 and Job died in Frederick Co., VA in 1839
