Notes

He resided in 1751 in NJ. His wife's name may have been either Moore or Anderson. Return appears as a witness to the will of one William Moore in Hopewell, Hunterdon, NJ on 13 Apr 1751. The other witnesses were Eliakim Anderson and Richard Phillips. Eliakim and Return were the ones who made the estate inventory. The children of William Moore were given as Cornelius, Nancy, Marry, Nathan and Easter.

Name (Return) came from fact that his father had been captured by the French or the Spanish while on an ocean voyage to England. On the day of his return, his pious wife named their new-born son Return. Probably owned a flour mill on Delaware River.

Public office 1755 Overseer of Highways, Hopewell Twp, Hunterdon (now Mercer), NJ
