Well, I'm embarrassed. Having posted that message a couple of hours ago, I've found new information which indicates that the Zephaniah Bell I'm interested in was NOT born in Europe, but in Sussex Co., NJ, and had a daughter Nancy and many other children besides. I also find that my particular line of descent from this man does not appear anywhere on the Internet. (It will soon, as soon as I get my Famly Tree Maker home page under construction.) If someone would like this information, please let me know. In the meantime - all Bell information would be appreciated!ppreciated!
