John Gleespen
« on: Tuesday 10 January 17 00:42 GMT (UK) »
Hello again ...................... can you help?

I have an ancestor John Gleespen born in Kilkenny, Ireland abt 1799 died 1873.

He lived in Somerset County, New Jersey when his will was being contested in 1873-74. A lengthy process. He had a daughter named Ellen Aird who died just before her father. The court petition records indicate he had three children, including Ellen. I have not found any birth or marriage records for his offspring or wife.

Thank you for your thoughts.
