Hi, my name is Marie Wright and I live in Neptune City, NJ. My husband's grandmother's family are the Huggins from Burlington County. I've been trying to do research on them.
Ann Ford from Bordentown gave me your e-mail as a Nelson researcher. Here's the information I have:
Descendants of Robert Nelson
Generation No. 1
1. ROBERT1 NELSON was born Abt. 1821. He married ANGELINE. She was born Abt. 1824.
Children of ROBERT NELSON and ANGELINE are:
2. i. ALEXANDER SHREVE2 NELSON, b. Abt. 1851, New Hanover Township, Burlington County, NJ.
ii. SARAH ELIZABETH NELSON, b. Abt. 1857.
iii. CHARLES ANNA NELSON, b. Abt. 1859.
Generation No. 2
2. ALEXANDER SHREVE2 NELSON (ROBERT1)1 was born Abt. 1851 in New Hanover Township, Burlington County, NJ. He married ELEANOR B. HUGGINS1 November 25, 1875, daughter of WESLEY HUGGINS and RACHEL CHAMBERS. She was born Abt. 1852 in Jacobstown, NJ1, and died 1.
Notes for ALEXANDER SHREVE NELSON:
he was still alive in 1910 census in North Hanover Township, Burlington County, NJ page 188b
Notes for ELEANOR B. HUGGINS:
they were in Chesterfield township in 1870
Child of ALEXANDER NELSON and ELEANOR HUGGINS is:
i. THOMAS3 NELSON, b. Abt. 1876.
Elinor or Ella B. Huggins is our ancestor being that she is the sister of Norman's grandmother. We know what happened to most of the rest of the family. An elderly relative gave most of the information to our Mormon cousin in Florida years ago. I have taken over this research from her. She gave Shreve's name as Alexander Shreve. We could find nothing. Recently, at the Burlington County Library I found the marriage record and hey, if we had the name correct we might have found something before this. I have no idea where they are buried but do know Ella died before 1910.
