Marilyn,

My husband is descended through Elizabeth CASE and George Brackley
WINTER. Unfortunately, I have only sketchy details on the family and
next to nothing beyond copies from Chamber's book. Here's what I have
for her:

1. ELIZABETH2 CASE (WILLIAM1)1 was born 9 February 1817 in NEW JERSEY,
and died 21 August 1866. She married GEORGE BRACKLY WINTER Abt. 1835,
son of MICHAEL WINTER and MARGARETH BRAKELEY. He was born 24 October
1813 in NEW JERSEY, and died 3 March 1886.

"Early Germans in Northwestern NJ"
...there is a "BRACKLEY WINTER" mentioned who married Elisabeth CASE,
daughter of Margaret LERCH and William CASE of "The Forge", near
Bloomsbury, Warren Co. (no dates given). No parents given for Brackley
Winter, unfortunately.
...There is also a Matilda BRACKLEY who married William CASE,
Elisabeth's brother.



Also, I found a potential match for her sister Annie who married Robert
