EARLY MARRIAGES IN AMWELL, N. j.
By Jacob Servis, of Lambertville, ". j.
READ BEFORE THE HuNTERDoN COUNTY HIsToRI-
CAL SOCIETY, AUGUST l1TH 1886.
The marriages given in the subioined
list were gathered from the official re.
cords of the Rev. William Frazer, who
was Missionary at Amwell, Kingwood
and Musconetcunk, from 1768 to 1898.
Mr.. Frazer was appointed Missionary
by ''The Society for the Propagation of
the Gospel in Foreign Parts" The So
ciety was organized in the City of Lon
don, in the year 100 (perhaps earlier).
The Rev. DR.. Willis Dean, of Lincoln,
preached before the Society in the year
1901. Mr.. Frazer preached in Amwell
(now Ringoes). The church stood in the
grave yard, near the old Amwell Acade-
my. In my school boy days, fifty years
ago, the yard was one of the play grounds
for the children. 1t seems but yesterday.
The list may appear monotonous, but
it will be observed that it contains the
names of many ancestors of prominent
families of to-day, and is of his torical in-
terest:
