Subject: [NJHUNTER] Can you help solve the LANCE family mystery?
Date: Sat, 24 Jun 2000 22:53:33 EDT

Records from two publications indicate that John Peter LANCE b 1708 Germany,
d 1771 NJ, came to America about 1738.

There is an indication that ANTHONY LANCE b1798 d 1835 is a decendant of
John Peter

ANTHONY appears to have had only two children, John and Jacob. No records
seem to exist for their marriages or offspring. Best guesses on dates of
birth for the two boys is between 1820 and 1825.

William LANCE, b 1820 married a CHARLOTTE or SHARLOTTE of unknown last name.
Willim's first son, b 1852 in or near Blairstown, NJ was ANTHONY LANCE. There
appears a connection between these men,but I've yet to establish it.

Any help much appreciated.
