Subject: [NJ-L] BONNELL, Isaac b. 1738 -- Parentage and birthplace ???
Date: Tue, 13 Jul 1999 13:24:59 -0500


My GGG-GF:
Isaac Bonnell the Loyalist, removed to Digby NS around 1783.
B. 29 Aug. 1738 perhaps in Elizabethtown. Or Morris County.
D. 1806 Digby, NY.

M. 1763 Grace Fox, dau Thos. Fox, and settled in
Perth Amboy. Grace d. 1780 is is bd. in
Trinity Churchyard, Perth Amboy.

Was high sheriff of Middx. Co., NJ 1763-66.
Friend of Wm. Franklin, gov of NJ (and son
of Ben) -- WF stood godfather to Isaac's
son Wm Franklin Bonnell, b. 1773.

I have considerable info about him, but not his
parents or his birthplace. He is believed to be
a descendant of William Bunnell of New Haven Colony,
ca. 1635.

Any help gratefully received.
