Notes

When Gabriel Willson married Elizabeth Lundy, both were members of the Kingwood Society of Friends at Quakertown, New Jersey. They settled "on the Great Meadows along the Pequest River, near Allamuchy, Warren Co., New Jersey." (C-256)

Either this Gabriel or his son, is likely to be the Gabriel Willson who in 1783 signed an anti-slavery petition from the Philadelphia Yearly Meeting to the U.S. Congress in behalf of Quakers in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia. There were about 500 signatures on this petition, including a Gabriel Willson, William Wilson, Moses and Isaac Coates. (C-758)
