• Notes

  Mary's data comes from Eli Field Cooley, William Scudder Cooley, Genealogy of Early Settlers in Trenton and Ewing, "old Hunterdon County," New Jersey, p. 249. On 29 April 1779, as per NJ records, Eli F. Cooley md. 1st this Mary Skelton, "who died a year after marriage." Apparently Eli's nephew William Scudder Cooley added this information but did not know Mary's birthplace, specific birthdate or names of her parents.
