I am trying to locate sources to prove the following information that was
sent to me about my ancestor, Joseph BURWELL.



The individual that sent me the info did not write the sources down when
originally found. I am hoping that someone can give me tips on where to
locate the sources in Hunterdon County.





This is what I was sent:



Joseph BURWELL was the son of John BURWELL Agness LEE



Joseph BURWELL was listed as a farmer in Morris Co., NJ. He was a
post rider in Quakerstown, Hunterdon, NJ in 1768-69. In 1771 he moved to
Kingwood, Hunterdon Co., NJ. He was listed in various documents as being
in Hunterdon Co. He then moved to Rostraver, Westmoreland, PA was in
the 1790 census there.
