Middlesex, NJ
Research of the occurance of:
EVERNHAM, EVINGHAM, or EVERINGHAM
of Middlesex County, New Jersey
1850 or earlier
Research of Kevin Everingham, 2006


Immediately North of Monmouth County is Middlesex County, NJ. It was formed in 1675, one of the original 4 counties in East Jersey. Not surprising, Everinghams seemed to have lived here also. In Septempber of 1767, a Charity Everingham married Cornelius Rowe. In 1802, Benjamin, John, Thomas & Thomas Everingham Jr. appear on Tax lists for E. Windsor Township in Middlesex County. Later, in 1807, Ann Everingham married Thomas Franch "French?" here and a Sarah Everingham married John Dillen. (I have no idea who they are).
Henry EVERNHAM / EVERINGHAM was born about 1764 and died 1841 in New Jersey. He lived in Middlesex County, New Jersey and is discussed, not by name but as a "Grandfather" of George Everingham, who was also a Smith & Wheelwright in the area... this comes from the book; Fare to Midlands, 1939. (see notes below)


any research documentation prior to 1850 would be appreciated! (contact this site)

    Book Reference;
    "Fare to Midlands" by Henry Charlton Beck 1939. The book mentions; George, William & Ellison Everingham and several Dey's. In the book and marriage record, the name is given as Ellison Everingham... census data records the name as "Evernham" The book interviews George Everingham who says about his family; "George Everingham, whos father and grandfather were smiths & wheelwrights before him at the crossroads at Red Tavern (Applegarth)..." and also says: --- "William & Ellison Everingham owned wheelwright shops. I believe it's probable that this William mentioned is a son of Henry Evernham (b.1764).
