Hunterdon and Sussex, AKA Warren Counties have the highest historic
population of LANCE people.

I have LANCE people from 1820 to the late 1800 and a blank spot from about
1820 back and from 1890 forward.

Is anyone on these lists researching this line?

Hi Laurence,

I am not researching this surname, but this is what is listed in
information I photocopied for my LEIGH surname.

You might wish to contact the Hunterdon County Clerks Office, Hall of
Records, Flemington, NJ 08822 for the 1806 (+) Militia list, but:

In the Hunterdon County Tax Ratables

Amwell Township:

1803, p. 69, Enrolled Militia - John LANCE (listed between Ezra Brown and
Samuel ?Sev~, maybe look in Kingwood, Delaware Township because it also
lists Robert NAILOR a person or two away).
p. 61, Singlemen with horses - ?Calvin LANCE listed being with
Reading Thomas, Esq.
p. 60, " " John
LANCE " Larew Abraham Sen.
p. 30, LAN~E, Amos son of ~mos~ 100 acres, 3 horse, 2 cattle.
p. 29, LAN~ E, John - rest of information not copied.
LAN~~, James (S of ~) 34 acres
[Spelling looks like LANICE]

1802 and 1789 No LANCE only LAING.

Hope this helps a little.
Deborah in OK
