John of Lehman Howey1

M, b. 1778, d. 1869
Last Edited20 Apr 2008
Birth*1778John of Lehman Howey was born in 1778 at New Jersey.2,1 
He was the son of John Howey.1 
Marriage*1804John of Lehman Howey married Mary (Polly) VanWhy in 1804.3,1 
Death*1869John of Lehman Howey died in 1869 at Lehman, Pike, Pennsylvania.4,1 
EducationHe was educated; Home.1 
Note* Notes for John (of Lehman) Howey

     John (of Lehman) Howey was born in New Jersey about 1778 He came to Pennsylvania as a young child, probably under 5 years of age, and lived for the rest of his life in what is now Pike County. In about 1805 he married Mary VanWhy, daughter of Henry VanWhy, and they had 9 children including the Great-grandfather of the writerÙus generation, Peter Howey.
     As stated previously we believe the father of John (of Lehman) was John (b.1757), son of John of Smithfield and his second wife, Jane Morrison. We have identified him as John Hooey/Howey of Oxford, NJ. He is the half brother of Bowdewine of Delaware Township, PA. We surmise that when John (of Oxford) died in the winter encampment of WashingtonÙus army he left behind a 2 year old son, John (of Lehman), who may have become an orphan. The child, and perhaps his mother, then came into the care of either Henry VanWhy, neighbor and fellow-soldier of John (of Oxford); or possibly, of JohnÙus brother, Jacob, who had moved to Oxford some time before 1783.
     The records show that in the 1780Ùus, Henry VanWhy moved his family from New Jersey to Lower Smithfield in Pennsylvania which adjoined Delaware Township where Bowdewine Howey lived. We can be confident that this is the same Henry VanWhy who served in Captain Luce's Company because he named a son Israel Shreve VanWhy after the commander of the 2nd NJ, Israel Shreve. We surmise that at this time the child, John (of Lehman), and perhaps his mother, were delivered to the care of Bowdewine, his uncle.
     In the census records for 1790 and 1800, the household of Bowdewine Howe(y) includes 3 young males, the oldest being several years older than the other two. We believe these are John (of Lehman, b. ca1778), and the 2 sons of Bowdewine, Robert (b. ca 1785), and William (b. ca 1790). These 3 Howey men appear consistently in later records of Pike County and its earlier identities for the first 50 years of the 1800Ùus. John of Lehman first appears by name in the 1810 census where he is listed as Head of Household living next to Robert Howey, also Head of Household. The only other Howey household in the area is that of John Jr. for whom we have found no connection to Bowdewine of Delaware Township, but it is likely that one exists.
     From 1810 onward John (of Lehman) Howe(y) appears in every Pike County census to 1860. For the last 40 years of his life he lived on the 9o+ acre tract on the Big Bushkill which came to be called Howeytown. Earlier the tract had belonged to his cousin Robert, and before that to his uncle Bowdewine, and before that, probably to his grandfather, John of Smithfield.
See ÙSChronology of John (of Lehman) HoweyÙT ifor sources.
     John of Lehman died in 1869 but we have found no record of his death or place of burial except for the mention in the Milford Herald item on the death of his wife, Mary VanWhy. We have found a record of the sale of his assets and distribution of his estate to his heirs. Except for Peter, all of the children of John and Mary remained in the Pike/Monroe area raising large families.

  7. [S314] Unknown author, Cemetery Records, Lot C-93 at Cedar Hill Cemetery, Cedarville, Lawrence Twp., Cumberland Co., NJ.

    This information was gathered based on email from Allan Willis, the cemetery caretaker in January 2014 by email. He stated there were handwritten notes in the register. Based on his record of the notes this is what I have been able to construct along with other records I have gathered.

    Lot owner Robert L. Howey (Sr.)– the original purchaser would have been by him. He lived from 1873-1951 and was my great-grandfather. He is NOT buried in this lot but is interred at Old Stone Church in Fairton.

    Robert L. Howey, Jr. 1905-1964, my grandfather, is NOT buried in this lot. He is buried in Centre Grove.

    Grave 6 John?
    This would be Jonathan Moses Howey 1869-1921, brother of Robert L. Howey, Sr. His death certificate and obituary indicate burial at Cedar Hill on April 18, 1921.

    Grave 5 Debbie?
    This would be the wife of Jonathan Moses Howey, Deborah A. (Harris) Howey 1881-1922. Her death certificate and obituary indicate burial at Cedar Hill on November 21, 1922.

    Grave 4 – Grandmother?
    This one depends on who was the person who said it was their grandmother but very likely is Hannah (Shaw) Howey 1855-1916, mother of Robert L. Howey, Sr. Her death certificate and obituary indicate burial at Cedar Hill on February 15, 1916.

    Monument space - Baby? This would be Margarette Howey (1913-1914), infant daughter of Robert L. Sr. and Lucinda (in grave 3) who died in the month following her mother. Death certificate indicates burial at Cedar Hill on March 27, 1914.

    Grave 3 – Mrs. Robert L.
    Lucinda Williams (Harris) Howey 1886-1914, wife of Robert L Howey, Sr. Her death certificate and obituary indicate burial at Cedar Hill on February 19, 1914. Lucinda died young with TB and I suspect her death would have been the reason to purchase the lot.

    Graves 2 and 1– None?
    I have no other records that indicate other members of the Howey family that may be buried in this cemetery (except those in C-80). The father of Robert L. Howey, Sr. was Edward Lewis Howey who died January 28, 1932. The death certificate indicates he was buried at CENTER GROVE however I’m a little surprised he would not have been buried in this lot.
