Notes |
- A certain 1668Mary Pettit1754 had a Moore husband who died 1735 at Burlington, N. J., childless in 1727 (date of his Will)
She married second Rev. Paul Watkinson (died 1752), Rector of [St Mary's Episcopal,] Burlington (N. J.) Church.
The Moores and the Nelles families never connected south of the 49th parallel. They lived 200 miles apart
[1680Rev Paul1752 witnessed the [1715] Will of his "father-in-law" 1645Nathaniel Pettit.
1645Nathaniel died Jun 1718. Rev Paul MIGHT have witnessed the Probate; Paul's only
connection in 1715 was as the church rector?, BUT Nathaniel was a Quaker, and Paul didn't
become rector until at least 1738. I totally doubt this]
On May 15, 1753 Nathaniel Pettit [Jr.=Eliz Heath], Elias, and Jonathan were brothers named in the will of
Mary (Pettit) Moore Watkinson of the city of Burlington, New Jersey. This will was proved Feb. 2, 1754
From pettit webpage:
72. Mary Pettit, died childless at Burlington, N. J., in 1754, having married first Samuel Moore and second Rev. Paul Watkinson, Rector of the Burlington (N. J.) Church, who witnessed his father-in-law, Nathaniel Pettit's Will.
THIS IS SERIOUSLY MESSED UP
On May 15, 1753 Nathaniel Pettit [Jr.=Eliz Heath] was named in the will of his sister, Mary (Pettit) Moore Watkinson of the city of Burlington, New Jersey. This will was proved Feb. 2, 1754
Who is Mary Reed? (supposedly the right wife, b 1651, but was married to a Samuel born 1645
and who died suddenly 25 Jul 1717, the son of Rev john Moore ) Mary REED is OK
