Francis Hickman

M, b. from 1703 to 1711
     Francis Hickman was born from 1703 to 1711 at PA. He was the son of Joseph Hickman Sr. and Mary (---). He was listed in the Inventory of the Estate of Jomathan Wright on 30 August 1742 at Burlington, NJ..1 He married Jane Moon, daughter of Jasper Moon and Susannah (---), on 3 November 1742 at Burlington Co, NJ..
(Comment: In his marriage bond, he was said to be of Mansfield, Burlington County).
(Comment: Francis Hickman was known to have moved from Pennsylania to Burlington Co, NJ. There is no proof that Francis Hickman and Jane Moon were the parents of Samuel Hickman. It is assumed since they were only ones with the Hickman surname living in the same area and DNA matches.).
(Comment: Francis and younger brother Joseph Jr. do not appear on the 1724 tax list with their father, but are listed on a 1734 land petition. Therefore Francis is believed to be born between 1703 and 1711, and Joseph Jr born between 1705 and 1711).2

Child of Francis Hickman and Jane Moon
