"She commented to me
a couple of times that she was perplexed by Alex Purdy's data,.."
I'm a bit perplexed myself sometimes!! For people reading this thread, I think what she had trouble with is my assembly of the family pre-Revolution which seems to disagree with some of the oral tradition like the Boston Tea Party. Considering that all the names that I have been provided and that I have researched lived in New Jersey, I find the Boston Tea Party story a bit hard to believe. I still believe that the family is a single family in the 1730-1758 period, but its movement is difficult to understand. I have found what appears to be an Andrew Boultinghouse (not spelled that way, but that's not news!) in the Trenton area who might indicate a second family. There was a Boultinghouse family living in Trenton until relatively recent times (1800's) but I have found very little info on them and they don't seem to have any living descendants. Something new I found a couple of weeks ago is that the John Boultenhouse who filed for Rev War pension in 1820 at Miami Co. Ohio was probably a son of George Boultenhouse and is not the same man as John Boultinghouse who lived in Monmouth Co NJ during the Rev.
