BLACKWELL/GARDNER - I am looking desperately for birth or marriage records on a Robert Blackwell - noted on my GGG Grandfathers (Lewis Gardner Blackwell) death certificate - as his father - I found a letter in the Public Library at Flemington requesting information noting that Robert Blackwell was Robert Lanning Blackwell b. Hackettstown N.J. b. 8/17/1789 and supposably died at Newport Pa on 5/18/1867. The letter suggested that he was supposed to be married to a Sara Ann Gardner. Robert - I believe - was the son of Elijah Blackwell and Martha Lanning - and have a copy of Elijah's will naming Robert in it. If you know of the names of old Churches in Hackettstown that might be helpfull - I can call them and ask them to check their records if they still exist. Would also like to know if the Blackwell - Gardner Connection sounds familiar. One of Lewis Gardner Blackwells children was named Gardner Blackwell. Any help or direction would be appreciated. I've been to the Hackettstown Historical Society and copied their whole file on Blackwells but found nothing related to my Robert except the same will that I had already found. Thank you in advance for any help you might be able to provide.

Hagerty, Haggerty - My name is William Robert Hagerty and have traced my family back to early 1820s to one Thomas Hagerty who was married to one Caroline Courson born about 1827. I found very little help in 1850 census for Warren County because Thomas Hagerty is not listed and may be dead. His wife is working for a doctor as a housekeeper under her maiden name and her son William H. Hagerty is being care for by Stephen Emonous age 62 and his wife Elizabeth This information is taken from Fredinghugaen Township census of 1850. And on William H. Hagerty Death record of June 19, 1915 his mother record his father as Thomas Hagerty of U.S.A. Yet I cannot find any other reference to Thomas Birth, Death, Location.
I have found out from census records from Warren county in townships of Stillwater, Blairstown, and Frelinghugsen that my Grandfather was born in Blairstown in 1899 to Harvey C Hagerty and Margaret Katural France (Who Whose marriage record I found in Trenton These are my problems
1. I cannot find death record of Harvey C Hagerty who died before 1936, I Know this because his son signed up for Social Security in 1936 and listed both parents as deceased .
2.Harveys father was one William H Hagerty who was married to Hannah C Harmmond from both william and Hannah death records I found there date of birth and date of death. William Died in Jun 19, 1915 in Blairstown and is listed a being buried in Stillwater Cemetary I made trip up there and found no grave marker for his place.
3. William's Father is listed as Thomas Haggerty and his mother is Caroline Courson yet I find no marriage record of them and going back to the 1850 census Caroline Courson is house hold of a doctor listed as house keeper and her son is living in Frelinghugen Township census in house hold of Steven Emmons and wife Elisabeth as a 13 moth old, Which leads me to belive that Thomas has either pass away, abadand them or move out of the area. I am trying to trace my family back to when they arrived in United States and it appears so fare that They have been in North Jersey since the early 1820's but I cann't verify this as yet. Since Warren County is so far removed from South Jersey meaning your Historical society is only open 2-4 on Sunday I cann't get up there and Trenton records have help but it apperars I am at an impass as to going back farther than Thomas on my Father Father side, I have a little move information on his mothers side So any help would be greatly received and any record or added information I have I will be willing to share with anyone who could help. Photos or any family history is what I need Any help would be thankful Please email. Thanks again

METTLER, MEESHOW, MEDLAR, WOOLEVER, THATCHER, BUSHEE - I am searching for information on my ggg-grandfather, Francis METTLER (b. 6 Dec 1796 Monmouth Co. NJ) and married a Hannah MEESHOW (sic) in the Village of Washington, Warren Co. on 20 Feb 1821. The 1830 Warren Co. census lists a Francis MEDLAR and a Francis MEDLAR Jr. I also found a Francis Medler as a member of the Sussex County, Grannage Township Militia in the 1793 Census. The METTLERS moved to Ohio around 1839. Some of the WOOLEVER, THATCHER, and BUSHEE families married into this line and moved to Ohio about the same time.
Also submitted - My ggg-grandfather was Francis METTLER (various spellings incl. MEDLAR), who (according to his pension records) was born on 6 Dec 1796 in Monmouth Co. NJ. He was married to Hannah MEESHOW (could have been MERSHAN) on 20 Feb 1821 in the Village of Washington, Warren Co.. They moved to Ohio around 1840 with WOOLEVERS, THATCHERS, and KITCHENS. The 1830 Warren Co. Census has both Francis MEDLAR and Francis MEDLAR Jr. living next to each other; thus I believe the elder Francis is the father (b. abt. 1765). I have several METTLER families from this period in Monmouth, but can't connect them. Do you think we could help each other? Thanks

METTLER - I was hoping someone living in Warren County might be able to gather some information for me. I have information that indicates there is a METTLER Cemetery near Sandyston.

My research indicates Francis METTLER m. Hannah MEESHOW (could be MERSHON) in 1821 in the Village of Washington. Thanks much

THOMPSON - I'm the Rev. Bayard C. Carmiencke. My grandfather was Bayard Taylor Thompson of the Thompsons of Washington, NJ. We got lucky once and found some information that lead us to Samuel Thompson of Washington. I'm sure he's buried in the Washington Cemetery. He was born 1782. That's as far as we got, quite a few years ago. Any help in locating more about his folks would be appreciative.
Sue and I are working on the Hawkins Genealogical Supplement. that's the supplement to the 1939 Book that traces the Hawkins line primarily from Zachariah. The thing that is different about this supplement is that we are bringing forward the female lineages as well. Sue's grandmother being a Hawkins means are children as Carmiencke's will be in the book. We have now well over 220 pages with a few more months to go. We keep getting submissions.
All this work has not allowed me to work further on My Thompson line in NJ. So I'd appreciate anything that could get me going again. All my queries out on the internet have not produced too much so far this year. Someone must be connected to my line and be interested in Genealogy.
The following is what I have in the direct line with wives; I keep hoping that someone will have information leading to Samuel's parents and further back as well as siblings and descendants of the wives.

My gr-grandfather died before my father was born I also believe my gr-grandmother did too! My grandfather's name was Russell Clyde Wilgus. He was the son of an Edward Wilgus and an Adell Kitchen Wilgus. They lived in Blairstown, NJ (warren county). I know that they had family in Newton, NJ (Sussex county). I've been told that my grandfather met my grandmother there when he was living there with relatives although noone knows which relatives or has any names for me. My grandmother is Helen Louise Dean Wilgus originally from the Washington, NJ area. I am trying to get a little more information on my gr-grandfather. I know he was Edward Wilgus, that he worked on the railroad and he lost an arm. I do not know where he is from or his parents names, I do not know his wedding date or when he died but I believe he is burried in the Blairstown, NJ cementary. If anyone can give me any information I would be very grateful!

WOOLWEAVER/WOOLWEFER/WOOLWEVER etc. - Lived in Warren and Somerset Counties, New Jersey. Operated a woolen mill that produced cloth for the residents. Possibly a family related to the Palatine WOHLEBENs from Herkimer and Dutchess County NY, who came to New Jersey in the mid-1700s during the time of chaos caused by the French and Indian War. I am looking, in New Jersey for Counrad Wolwever or Woolwefer, who lived in Oxford Township, and William Woolwever or Woolwefer who lived in Greenwich Township, circa 1770-1790
Also - WOOLWEAVER/WOOLWEFUR - I am researching Woolweaver in Beekmen Town, Dutchess County, New York
in the 1700s, and trying to establish a possible relationship to the Palatine Wohleben family that settled in Beekmanland after their arrival. In corresponding with Rachel Meyers, Sussex County Wohleben researcher, I determined that the Beekman Wohlebens had branches in New Jersey, the only other place I had found Woolweaver/Woolwefur, and recently she located Woolwefur court records associated with Woolever in Sussex. Counrad Woolwefur appears to have descendants that used the spelling Woolweaver, including some that went to Pennsylvania. Contact with anyone researching the "W's" would be greatl appreciated.
