Notes

Roger came from Somerset Co., England early in the 1700's. He bought land in Burlington Co., NJ in 1696 or 1722 depending upon which 2nd hand source is read. (E) His children listed in his will were: John 1706 New Jersey, Joseph 1708, Joanna, Marmaduke 1710, Esther 1712, Edith 1714, and Roger, 1716. Of these, so far a marriage application for George Fenton Jr. somehow related to son Marmaduke has supported the fact that his parents surnames were Fort and Coates. "#213; George FENTON Jr. of Hanover Twp and County Burlington, and Marmaduke COATES (FORT) of the same place.....[bound to]....William LIVINGSTON, Governor...500 pounds...12 March 1777....certificate of marriage between George FENTON Jr...and Elizabeth SCRAGGY...[W] Wm SORSBY." (E) The Fort name is in parenthesis by the author who transcribed the record. Apparently, Marmaduke had signed his name as Marmaduke Coates Fort on this record and the author indicated that by putting the part of the missing name in the body with parenthesis.
