Q. Was Frederick DUCKWORTH a son or other kinsman of George DUCKWORTH?

In 1834, my "uncle" Daniel WILLIAMSON of Greenwich Township, Sussex Co., NJ
sold land in Bethlehem Township, Hunterdon Co., NJ to Frederick DUCKWORTH of
Bethlehem.

Here is an earlier DUCKWORTH-WILLIAMSON connection...

to]... Lewis MORRIS, Governor... 500 pounds... 26 June 1739. ... George
DUCKWORTH obtained license of marriage for himself and for Jamima WILLIAMSON
of the same province, spinster...

son...
