In Reply to: Esther Crossman by Richard French of 908

"My 3x greatgrandfather Richard French and Ester SCrossman"
Dick:
Some five years ago, I was corresponding with two different
folks concerning an "Abner" Crossman.
With one of them, the correspondence continued over many
months.
As you can see below, there there is was an Ester at the right time, in the right place to qualify as a candidate as your Ester.

The stuff below comprises two different mails. I'm not
exactly sure where one ends and the next one begins.
I'm not even sure whether I contributed some of the research
myself. So I'm simply going to put " " around the entire
business.
It certainly does NOT give you a ggg grandmother, but it
MIGHT give you a good lead.

"There was a Michael Crossman in Sussex Co, NJ.
In THE MINUTE BOOK OF SUSSEX CO, NJ Court Records 1764-1766 by Brad and Carol Stark:
May Term, 1764 - Jacob Ford vs. Michael Crossman

August Term, 1765 - Joseph Green vs. Michael Crossman (at Newtown Aug 27,
1765)

Michael Crossman is juror #9 in case of George Beaty vs. Joseph Dawson (Aug 28,
1765)

Michael Crossman vs. Joseph Guering. " In debt. On motion of Reed for the
defendant, it’s ordered that the plaintiff give security for the costs in this action
before any further proceedings be ad, he not being a resident of this county." (Aug
28, 1765)

Michael Crossman is juror #7 in case of James Anderson vs. Derrick Hoff. (Aug 29, 1765)

So Michael Crossman was in court at Newton in Sussex Co.,
but was not a resident. He is the only Crosman in that book. Do you know anything about him?

Herb,
This comes to you third hand. That is,the person who sent
it to me got it from someone else. I have not seen these
records and don't know if there were sponsors, which would be helpful.

Thank you for your quick reply on the Crossman family. The
only tie another researcher has found is in the Hanover
Presbyterian Baptist Church Records 1746-1796 NJ.
#256 Crossman, Michael Joined 2 Jun, 1771

Baptisms:
Crossman, Abner son of Michael Bapt. 12 May 1771
Crossman, Robert " " " 2 Jun 1771
Crossman, Samuel " " " " "
Crossman, Elizabeth, Dau. " " " "
Crossman, Ester " " " " "
Crossman, Julia " " " " "

Obviously, the bapt. dates don't have much to do with birth
dates, but they were probably children still, but no wife
mentioned."
