      5. Email from Mike Morrissey 17 Jun 2004 mikemorr@hotmail.com:
      "Reuben Haines had a store near Toms River. His account book for 1816-1822 (mostly 1816-1818) was abstracted in the "Genealogical Magazine of NJ." Among the names listed were:
      Aron Bennett [later husband of Naomi]
      Moses Bennett [son of Aaron]
      Garrett Irons [1st cousin of Naomi]
      Ezekial Johnson
      Jacob Johnson
      Joel Johnson [brother of Naomi]
      Jonathan Johnson [brother of Naomi]
      Joseph Johnson [possible brother of Naomi]
      Joshua Johnson
      Samuel Johnson (& daughter) [possible brother of Naomi]
      Richard Phillips
      Samuel Phillips
      William Phillips [son of Andrew and Naomi]
      Mr. Winner [KP note: probably Isaac since probably all of Isaac's oldest children were in Ohio or on their way]
      Mrs. Winner
      Except for the Irons, I have listed all those of a given surname. Andrew Phillips is not listed. That does not prove he was dead, but it is likely. The only Bennetts listed are Aaron and his son, Moses. That makes it seem likely that he was the 3rd husband of Naomi."
