APPLETON:
I am searching for information about one of my ancestors. His name is George W. APPLETON born about 1820-1825. He married Rachel MARTINDELL of Newtown, Pa. born 1828 - marriage recorded in Trenton State Gazette August 22, 1849 (I have her ancestry back to 1620). She is buried in Riverview Cemetery. Family legend says he was a cabinet maker - undertaker in Trenton. He and his wife moved to Knoxville, Tenn. from Trenton - where my Grandfather was born. Census there says he was a cabinet maker coming from Pa. I have a copy of this census - 1850 p.55. The family returned to Trenton in 1863 from Tenn.- without father George W. APPLETON. Family legend (which Grandfather told me) was that he was taken off the train in Richmond, Va and placed in Libby Prison as a Northern sympathizer and there he died. I know nothing about his ancestry and wonder if you have any further information. Thank you for your effort.

BOWMAN:
I am interested in any information about the family of Oliver O. BOWMAN, b. abt. 1838 in PA, who was in the 1870-1910 censuses for Trenton, Mercer County, NJ. My great Grand Aunt, Margaret (Francis) LUDLAM GILGOUR, b. 14 June 1851 in Wales, d. 5 Aug 1947 in Knoxville, Knox County, TN, was a servant in the household of Oliver O. BOWMAN in the 1870 and 1880 censuses. She married 23 Feb 1882 in Trenton, Mercer County, NJ, James L. LUDLAM, a potter, b. in England, who died before the 1900 census. She returned to PA and married abt. 1904 George GILGOUR, who died 2 Oct 1918 in Pottsville, Schuylkill County, PA, during the peak of the influenza epidemic. Margaret and younger brother, Philip, were left in the care of a stepfather after the death of their mother ca. 1862 in East Delaware, Schuylkill County, PA. Shortly thereafter, Margaret was sent to live with another family, whose name I do not know. In the 1850 census for adjacent Carbon County, PA, there was an Oliver BOWMAN of the right age in the household of David BOWMAN, b. abt. 1810 in PA, and this may be the same Oliver BOWMAN who later appeared in Trenton. If so, the David BOWMAN family may have been the family to which Margaret went to live, and she may have accompanied their son, Oliver, and family to Trenton. I would be especially interested in the chronology of this BOWMAN family�s move to Trenton and if it was the family with whom Margaret lived after her mother�s death.

Lucas Zweig/Zweah/Sehweah/Sweig and Barbara Anna (both born Wurtemburg) had the following, Lucas Edward, Rosa, Emma, Otto, & John. I have located the family in Trenton 1850-1870 census.

Catherine was one of eight children born to Timothy LOMASNEY & Ellen ?MOHER?. It appears that one of Catherine's siblings namely John may had moved to Trenton about the same time as Otto's return. I found an obituary their mother (Ellen) in 1909 Trenton Evening Times. Looking to correspond with other descendants.
