Trenton? 1st March 1852

E. S. Brown Esq.

Yours of the 18th February I received and am sorry that I am not able to find record here of the marriage of John Fulkerson to Margaret Bruner. Our marriage records commenced not until the year 1795 and they were married you say between the years 1773 and 1776. I looked however from the commencement of our record for service ? thinking possible it might be recorded and then dated back refer? to but could find nothing. Those two names particularly the name Fulkerson are common in the lower part of the State and in Warren County where I think they must have lived Warren Co. was a part of Sussex then and was set off from this county in the year 1824. If those people had lived there some time after they were married I think the marriage might be provided by some old people yet living. I shall have opportunity of making such inquiry and if I can make any discovery I will write you accordingly. Belvidire is the county seat of Warren County and if you chose you can write to some person from their ? names I should think they lived yet below Belvidire nearly as low down as Easton

Respectfully I review ? yours,

Thomas I. Ludlung
