John Russell & Esther Shinn
« on: Wednesday 27 January 16 15:30 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for information on John Russell s/o Alexander & Beatrix Tait, and Esther Shinn d/o John Shinn & Jane Garwood.  They were married 16 May 1693 in Hickling, Norfolk, England and then immigrated to the US.  Esthers family were Quakers, and information was that she never married, however, as this marriage was outside the (Quaker family) it may not have been recognized.  They settled in New Jersey, US, have not been able to find any information relating to John's death, Esther died abt 1711, Springfield, Burlington County, New Jersey.

A tree on Ancestry thinks they both died the same year (1711) at the same location.

Schoch:

I don't have ancestry, so I can't view it.  Do you have,  or can you get any further information as to their descendants.  If not, what about a contact point for the tree, maybe I can get a guest invite.  Anything you can do would help.

Thanks

Can't get you an "guest" invite I'm afraid but try this site.

If you live in the US, see if your local library will give you access to Ancestry.
