I have seen many listings for this family line. I was wondering if anyone has traced the family from Burlington,NJ to Falls Twp., Bucks County, PA. Did they come up the river on the Jersey side and cross over at Trenton or did they cross over at Bristol and come up the Philadelphia to New York road? Regardless of which way they went did they make any stops to farm or such along the way?

Joshua can be found in PA until 1830 and then he has son James V. in Trenton, Mercer Co., NJ in 1836. There is no census record or other record of Joshua aft 1843.

James is then found in the 1850 census out in Upper Freehold, Monmouth Co, as a 14 year old farm laborer with Joseph Errickson. That is the same name as the women he marries and they go on to have 11 children. They finally settle in Sea Bright, Monmouth County, NJ
I have included the listings of 3 wives even though I have not found it but I am going on other's records.

Would love to hear from anyone else that is tracing this family. Thanks in advance.
