Dear Linda Walker,
I just saw your note about Hunterdon County. My OSBORN ancestors from
Hunterdon emigrated from there in the early 1800s and went to Warren County,
Ohio, to an area just south of Lebanon.
Do you have any connections to them?
All good wishes,
Mary Jane Phillips-Matz

Dear Kathleen,
NJ did indeed take censuses in 1790-1800-1810-1820. The trouble is
that there was a loss of these records. Other states lost the census records
from the same time period---in fact there was a district wide loss.
Under 1800 Ancestry includes this information (Similar explanations
are presented for the other years.):
Lost schedules include those for Georgia, Indiana Territory, Kentucky,
Mississippi Territory, New Jersey, Northwest Territory, Virginia, Tennessee,

While reading these e-mails regarding the KRYMER family, I couldn't help
wondering if it could be my CRITSER/KRITZER family. I have a George CRITSER
& possible brother Leonard CRITSER b. 1758. I have them as possible
children of Antoni CRITSER who immigrated to Hunterdon Co in 1749.
Other possible children are Henry b.ca 1755, John, Peter b. 1763, Anna b.
1765, Elisabeth b. 1767,
Jacob b. 1769 & Catherine b. 1774.
Can anyone help me? George is mine. He and Leonard moved to Harrison Co.,
WV.

After the war, Absolom moved to Clermont Co. Ohio an

I had the perfect example of this in my family. John W. Dorris and his wife
Elizabeth were counted in Aug 1850 in Canajoharie, NY. They apparently left for
Watervilet, NY shortly after to be with their daughter and her family (it was
right after my g-grandfather was born). They were recounted again in the Oct
1850 census for Watervilet. It happened a lot back then.

Pam, the aunt that collected these clippings was my great Aunt Ida Mae APGAR. Her parents were Charles APGAR and Blanche JACQUISH. My line of APGARS are related to many of the old Oldwick names but I don't know about the ROCHE's or BUSH's.

Hello Everyone,
I have come across a very unique letter that was
written by someone in Unionville (last name ends with
"...ayton"), Hunterdon County to Asher V. Williamson
in Sergeantsville, Hunterson County on Feb. 1st, 1873.
This really unique letter is written in the form of an
actual picture outline of Horace Greeley (very
recognizable), who lost the presidential race in 1872
to Ulysses S. Grant and then promptly died (Nov. 29,
1872).
The author of the letter and Asher appear to have been
"close" t
