John married Elizabeth Wintermute on 13 Apr 1797 in Sussex County, NJ. Elizabeth (daughter of George Wintermute and Nancy\Anna Arason) was born on 6 Feb 1778 in Sussex County, New Jersey; died on 14 May 1828; was buried in Merittstown, Pennsylvania. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Married by Rev. Jacob Senn

Notes:

T. Michael Louden has written:

"I have found the grave of George Wintermute and check the tombstone against the book. George is buried between the graves of Mary Wintermute and Ashfordby Wintermute (his son). Who is Mary Wintermute? The stone is very faded marble but
looks like it says:

"Mary

wife of

?A? Wintermute

died

?1? Jan 181?4?

Aged 5????..."

rest is unreadable but is shaped like the rest of age and a quote of some sort in smaller print as was the style at the time. The are no grave markers either side of these three or in front or behind. I assume these are filled graves but
without current markers. If I assume that Mary is a previously undocumented wife of Ashfordby it raises the question of why they were not buried adjacent to one another instead of with a space between them where George is buried 10 years
later.



Any ideas on who Mary "wife of Wintermute" is?

Mike Louden

George married Nancy\Anna Arason on 27 May 1771. Nancy\Anna (daughter of Jeptha Arason) was born on 6 May 1750; died on 19 Feb 1809 in Stillwater, New Jersey. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
