Archibald Mickle of Newton Township

• Is on Thomas Sharpe's map of 1700 w/a parcel fronting on the Delaware River

William Cooper, Jr. (born 1660, died 1691), the eldest son of William the emigrant, married, in 1682, Mary, the daughter of Edward and Mary Bradway, of Salem, and the young couple settled in that town. He died in 1691, leaving three children,—John, Hannah and Mary. His widow intermarried the next year with William Kenton, of Choptank Meeting, Maryland, and the three children were fostered and cared for by their grandfather Cooper at the “Poynt.” John was provided with a farm, as above stated, and did not change his residence until after his grandfather's death. He married, at Chesterfield Meeting, Anne Clarke in 1712, and settled in Deptford township, Old Gloucester County. Hannah married, in 1704, at her grandfather's house at the “Poynt,” John, the eldest son of Archibald Mickle, and they settled on Newton Creek, within the town bounds of Gloucester. Mary appears to have accompanied her grandfather when he removed to his farm at Cooper town, on the Waterford side of the creek, where he died, for she was married, 1707, at the house of her testamentary guardian, John Kay, near Ellisburg, to Benjamin, son and heir of Thomas Thackara, of Newton, the pioneer. They resided on the Thackara property on the middle branch of Newton Creek.
