Dear Kim Eckhardt:
I'm not sure you're the right person for me to ask, but are you looking
up Hunterdon County residents in other areas?
If so, may I ask you to look for any OSBORN families from about 1700 to
about 1810? My Revolutionary ancestor, Joseph Osborn, left Hunterdon County,
East Amwell Township, for Warren County, Ohio, where he died. I may have his
exact birth in a family Bible, but I'll take a guess and say it might have
been about 1755, give or take five years.
Many, many thanks,
Mary Jane Phillips-Matz
