• Notes

  In response to an e-mail I sent to Teresa Martin Klaiber 3-22-2006 Teresa has provided information for a book that was written by Raymond Martin Bell with Assistance from Stuart PI Lloyd and J. Wilbur Clayton 5-18-1979 Titled "The Clayton's of Monmouth County NJ" My Bell put Ms. Klaiber's name on the book but she did not co-author it. There is a discrepancy as to the year Mary Clayton's mother (Mary Gorden) was born.  Early sources state she was born circa 1763. This would mean she would have been 6 years old when she married Zebulon Clayton in 1774. Teresa clears up the dates as well as providing the correct date Zebulon and Mary Clayton's daughter Mary Clayton was born. Mary Ann Gorden was b. 11-11-1768 and her daughter Mary  was b. 10-11-1787 and states she was 19 when she married John Hall in 1804. Just doing the math Mary Clayton was 16 when she married. Source of information:  See Richard Hartshorne's notes: Mary Clayton was the great grand daughter to Mary Hartshorne Clayton. Mary Hartshorne being the eldest daughter of Richard Hartshorne. Richard left a will in which it names John Hall as one of his witnesses. This will was dated 5-14-1722 and proved 5-22-1722 in Middletown, Monmouth Co., N.J.  Could this John Hall be the great or great great grandfather to John Hall who Mary Clayton is now married to?
