CAUTION: This is a work in progress. IT IS NOT A DEFINITIVE SOURCE OF NEW JERSEY FRENCHS. The
numbers are the sequence in which they appear on the IGI.
I have culled out all the Entries past ~1800 from the LDS IGI.; plus I have tried to cull out the French's
from Burlington.
Descendants of the Quaker Thomas French at Burlington are below..
Descendants of Thomas French are included as a page from Geneology.com beneath this list.
I think these are all Nj entries-
I am interested in finding any clues as to the extended family of John the Brick
mason French. I am also intrigued with a Samuel French b. 1717 or so in what is now New York, just east of
Pt. Jervis. He settled in the Delaware River valley, Married Mrs. Rosenkrans -Moore And had a son Jacobus in about 1753.
In 1773 Moses and Henerey Frensh are on the tax rolls in Sussex County NJ. slightly south of Samuel's last known home.
Moses has a 3 sons- Johathan, John C., and Aaron. As John C. names one of
his sons Jacob, I am Curious....
First, here is my Brickwall and possible leads-
In 1748 "a" Richard French turned himself in to the Essex Sheriff- with others including
Zerubabel NORTH- under amnesty- for counterfeiting.
Richard B. French 1717 is recorded as a son of Richard French and Elizabeth.
IS he the same Richard who married Mercy NORTH , ? IF so, who was he married to from say 1740 to 1766? IF
there is a Richard French son of Richard b. 1717, had to be b. ~1740-46. No such birth is in the LDS record.
Then in the 1770's I have Joseph French baptizing Eleanora at Zion Church in
(now) Oldwick, Hunterdon. Zion church is 53 mi. from Walpack where I place my Richard
in 1793 at +_ 18 yrs old.
In the 1790's, my Richard (b.~1775)
baptises his first child Selletie. at Oldwick.
A Richard French and a Seletje babtised their children William
and Ann in 1781 - 1783 at Zion Church, Oldwick, Hunterdon NJ.
They didn't show up as members of the church. They "disapear" untill Dec. 5 1797
when "ye widow" Seletje remarries Wm. Lewis.
Hopewell, Mercer Co. is 4.6 mi. from Amwell, Hunterdon Co.
which is 27 miles from Zion church.
The book Pioneers of Old Hopewell with Sketches of Her Revolutionary
HeroesBy Ralph Ege has Richard French , millwright
of Chesterfield purchasing mills from Moses Quick Aug. 3 1796.
The mills were sold to Capt. Ely Moore Apr. 2 1798.
Wonder if Moses Quick is a cousin of The Indian fighter Quick just upstream from Walpack..
DNA results imply the Burlington Quaker French's have different DNA.
We might have 2 strains of French's living in early Burlington??
Curiously, Julia French Wood has an Ely Moore in her charts in South Carolina.
Ancestry has a tax report from 1781 listing a * French at Walpack that year. As my Richard would only be about
6 years old, This must be his FATHER!.. From other tax records, "*" appears to be Nehemiah.
That's my theoretical line.
Here are the FRENCHS entered in the first 1800 of us in the Familysearch IGI list. I thank them for their work
and dedication to genealogy.
\
- There is NO order rhyme or reason for the listing. IT IS A JUMBLE.
I am still trying to get all French's from IGI that fit into the NJ <1800 perameter then I'll work on trying to achieve
some semblance of a time line.

Now the BIG QUESTION IS THE CONNECTIUON BETWEEN the east Jersey FRENCH's and the
Burlington French's
Per Sandy Johnson nee French copied with permission, & as posted:
Linda: This is what I have on my great-great-great-great grandfather, Joseph French, Sr. He was the son of Thomas French
and Mary Allen. He was born 07/23/1698 in Rancocas, NJ. He married Allee 09/12/1722 at Shrewsbury, NJ Friends Meeting. He
died 07/08/1752. He children are listed as Joseph, Jr., born 1722 in Shrewsbury, NJ, m. Hannah Horn. Aaron, b. 09/08/1739,
Francis, Sr. (my g-g-g-grandfather), born 1740, Monmouth County, NJ, d. 1819, New Gretna, NJ and Mary who married James
Farrell, 1751. I believe that Lafford was Joseph, Jr.'s son. I haven't heard of Michael, Simon or William, but perhaps they
were sons of Joseph also. This line is the weak link in my genealogy chain. You see, there was a falling out between Thomas
and his son, Joseph, Sr. and the line seems to stop there. The only children mentioned in the book, The History of the Thomas
French family, which is in the Burlington County, NJ library are Joseph and Mary. Mary's husband was a lawyer and the executor
of Thomas' estate. Joseph was only left five pounds and a pair of gloves. He should have inherited the bulk of his father's
estate. My g-g-g-grandfather Francis, Sr. is not mentioned, although I have the genealogy listed elsewhere in handwritten
form. I am looking for hard evidence, but have had no luck so far. If you have any other questions, feel free to e-mail me
at erfrench44@hotmail.com. Sandy Johnson
