Per the following response to my posting on the HUNT message board at
RootsWeb.com, Jasper & Joanna (-----) HUNT had multiple children born prior
to 1754, leaving open the possibility that one of their daughters was Mrs.
Francis-5 KRUSEN (see original message further below for more details). Any
further information to support or refute this SPECULATION would be greatly
appreciated.

According to http://genforum.genealogy.com/hunt/messages/5462.html:

"Jasper HUNT s/o Samuel who died in Bethlehem Twp., Hunterdon Co. NJ in 1754
leaving widow, Joanna, who remarried a Hugh MCALLISTER who resided 1789 in
Alexandria Twp., Hunterdon Co. NJ with a Priscilla MCALLISTER in 1807
reported as a widow of Hugh (JR?) residing Sunbury, Northampton Co. PA."

Q. Were Jasper & Joanna (-----) HUNT the parents of Mrs. Francis-5 KRUSEN?

>From http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~streeter/CROESEN.TXT:

Francis-5 Krusen (Derrick-4, Francis-3, Derrick-2, Garret-1) was born,
probably in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, probably between 1742 and 1752. He
died in Mansfield Township, (then Sussex, since 1825) Warren County, New
Jersey between 7 and 13 January 1819. The name of Francis' first wife and
the probable mother of his children is unknown. However, Francis was
probably first married in Bethlehem Township, Hunterdon County, New Jersey
between 1773 and 1778; she died before 20 February 1815 (Sussex County
Deeds, E2:360)...

If Francis and his first wife followed Dutch traditions rigidly in naming
their children, he may have first married Elizabeth ____ and she may have
been the daughter of couple named Jasper and Joanna.

Can anyone provide more information to support or refute this SPECULATION?

Thanks for your help,

Perry
