• Notes

  From: Barbara Howey Parks BParks1936@aol.com Sent: Thursday, March 04, 2004 2:12 PM [snip]. I am busy researching the Howey side of my ancestry. I have information on them back to my ancestor, Abraham Howey/Hooey of Oxford, Sussex, NJ in the mid-1700s. Sources I have found indicate they were some of the Ulster Scots but have not been able to identify their origin in Northern Ireland at this time. These Howey's also seem to be connected to a family that arrived in the Philadelphia area about 1736. There were three brothers (of course): John, Jacob, and Joseph. I have the wills of Jacob and Joseph, but have been unable to find one for John, but have found many other references to him. There are two sisters mentioned in the wills: Elizabeth, who married a Patten, and Martha, who married Robert Scott. Joseph's first wife died in 1737 and is buried in the Abington Presbyterian Churchyard. He married Eleanor Charleton in the Abington Church on May 1, 1739 and their children were all baptised there. Anyway, I keep plugging away and hope some day to be able to find their home in Ireland. Best wishes, Barbara
