Re: William S. Mulford - Kent County Md.

Greeting double Mulford cousin!

You have TWO lines of descent from a common Mulford ancestor!

William S. Mulford's mother was FOX, Margaret, born Abt. 1786, Port Elizabeth, Cumberland, New Jersey, U.S.A. and she married John Mulford on 03 July 1806 in Port Elizabeth, Cumberland, New Jersey, U.S.A.John's father was:

MULFORD, Furman (Revolutionary War Soldier), 05 February 1756Bridgeton, Cumberland, New Jersey, U.S.A., died 26 May 1827, Bridgeton, Cumberland, New Jersey, U.S.A. who married LAWRENCE, Rhoda (Johnson), born 1757, Bridgeton, Cumberland, New Jersey, U.S.A., died 18 December 1821.They married 29 April 1780, Bridgeton, Cumberland, New Jersey, U.S.A.You can find information on Furman in the DAR Patriot Index, P. 486, Pvt. N.Y.He was a Private during the Revolutionary War in the 3rd Battalion of the New Jersey Troops.Also see DAR Archive, Volume 5, 1893, p.22+ for more information on his family.This linkage would qualify you for the Sons of the American Revolution and any sisters/daughters for the Daughters of the American Revolution.His will was dated May 20, 1826, Probated May 25, 1827 (Will Bk. C, 315, Salem New Jersey).See LDS Microfilm The Mulford Family, Film # 1509910 at page 80.His father was:

MULFORD, Lewis, born 29 August 1720, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A., died 04 July 1802, Cape May County, New Jersey, U.S.A., his wife was ELWELL, Tamson, born 04 December 1719, Pilesgrove, Salem County, New Jersey, U.S.A., died 11 February 1800, Cape May County, New Jersey, U.S.A., married Abt. 1741, Pilesgrove, Salem County, New Jersey, U.S.A.

Now BOTH of the above lead to Mulford ancestors:

Lewis Mulford's father was MULFORD, William, 1682, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A., died 22 March 1755, Cape May County, New Jersey, U.S.A., who married PARSONS, Charity, born 1697, Jamaica, Long Island, New York, U.S.A., and died in Cape May County, New Jersey, U.S.A.They were married about 1715 in East Hampton, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A.His father was

MULFORD, Thomas, born 1650, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A. who died 02 November 1732 East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New Jersey, U.S.A. and married CONKLING, Mary Gardiner, born 1658, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A., and died 14 July 1743, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A.They were married 1683, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A.

His father was MULFORD, William I., 1618, who is described below...

Returning to Tamson Ellwell, her parents were:ELWELL, Samuel, born 1688, Pilesgrove Township, Salem County, New Jersey, U.S.A. and died January 1738/39, Daretown, Salem County, New Jersey, U.S.A. who married MULFORD, Tamson, born Abt. 1701, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A. who died Aft. 1739, Pilesgrove Township, Salem County, New Jersey, U.S.A. They were married about 1713, Pilesgrove Township, Salem County, New Jersey, U.S.A.

Tamson's parents were MULFORD, William, II, born 1651, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A., died 28 July 1719, Pilesgrove Township, Salem County, New Jersey, U.S.A., whose wife was Mary, who was born in 1681, in East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A. and died in Pilesgrove Township, Salem County, New Jersey, U.S.A..William's father was

MULFORD, William I., born 1618, Cadbury, Mid Devon, Devonshire, England, died March 1686/87, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A. who was married to AKERS, Sarah, born 1622, South Molton, North Devon, Devonshire, England, and died 1687, East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A.They were married in 1648 in East Hampton, Long Island, Suffolk County, New York, U.S.A.This is your common Mulford ancestor.
