Captain Nathaniel Horton

notes

Husband of Mehetable. Born Southold, Long Island, NY, Oct 13, 1719 per unknown source. Information extracted from a combined tombstone transcription, in 1921 and 1933, published in The Genealogical Magazine of New Jersey, photo copied booklet.

Nathaniel and Meheatable Horton are also buried in the First Congregational Church Cemetery. The Hortons in America states that Nathaniel, son of Caleb and Phebe Terry Horton, married Mehetable Wells. Banks McLaurin, Jr., in his Horton genealogy, states that Nathaniel Horton and Mehetable Wells were married August 15, 1739 and cites the Salmon register as the source for that information. However, as stated above the August 15, 1739 marriage date was recorded by Salmon for Nathaniel Horton and Mehetable Case, not Mehetable Wells. Salmon records no marriage between a Nathan or Nathaniel Horton and a Mehetable Wells.
