Notes

• New Jersey Marriages 1685-1800 1901 by Patterson p. 320
• Marriage Records, GMNJ 19:24 "Jesus died for me and I thanked Him."
• "Andrew became very eratic in later years and alienated the townspeople of Trenton. In letters between Bowes and Joseph, they discussed that problem how to prevent him coming to Philadelphia. It's likely he suffered some form of dementia."
