Subject: [NJBurlin] Sharp and Steen family of Florence and Bordentown
Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2010 09:20:32 -0800 (PST)

I would like to hear from anyone connected to the family of Edwin J Sharp of Florence & Susie Steen of Bordentown, who were married at Bordentown 31 Jan 1920. Susie was the daughter of Margaret Thomas Gominger and Frederick Leo Steen of Bordentown.

Margaret died 30 May 1966. Her obituary says she is survived by 12 children, 33 great grandchildren and six great great grandchildren, no names are listed. Her only child that I can find was Susie, who apparently pre-deceased her mother. I doubt that Susie had 12 children, and I wonder if some of these descendants are 'honorary'.

The 1930 census shows Edwin and Susie in Florence, with children Virginia, Edwin jr, Carolinia, Florence and Robert. Robert was only a year old in 1929, so there may have been more children.

The Gominger and Steen families were members of Trinity Methodist Church in Bordentown.

My connection is through the Gominger family.
