Notes |
- According to Lloyd, "Lewis Jarman from Llangurig, Montgomeryshire, probably a kinsman of John, was in Chester County, Pennsylvania, before 1715, and Edward Jarman, or Jerman, from the same neighborhood, was early in Philadelphia." The name is also "Garman."
"Edward Jarman, of Philadelphia, the father of Sarah, wife of Isaac Walker, hereafter mentioned, was probably also a son of John and Margaret. Sarah (Jarman) Thomas died July 6, 1769, and her husband, Reese Thomas, did not long survive her, dying in his forty-fifth year."
Two issues with these notes, which are very confusingly written.
1. Was "Sarah (Jarman) Thomas here, wife of Reese, Edward Jarman's wife whoe got remarried? This is not clear--though, it doesn't seem to be Edward's daughter Sarah, also a Sarah Thomas by her second husband Jacob, since she died much later.
2. Maybe Edward was John's child; I'll wait for better evidence. One would have to assume he died fairly young relative to the rest of the family--less than 20 years after the birth of the last of John Jarman's children. Edward is not mentioned in Margaret Jarman's will, but that would make sense if he died so long before his putative mother. [2, 3]
