Another bible, in possesion of Rose chadwick Heath in 1942, also lists the family of Francis. Some of the dates don't match exactly, and another child, Lewis appears on this bible record.

These bible records refer to the children of Francis Jeffrey, born 1684.
Francis sold land to " His Loving brother William" on 26 May 1733.
Francis and his brother William were mentioned in the will of William West of Shrewbury Town; Monmouth co, NJ, dated 1 may 1740. “Youngest son, Job (bequeathed) Meadow near Raccoon Island, adjoining William and Francis Jefery's meadow.”
Francis appeared in the freeholders list in Monmouth Co. in 1748 and 1755. As none of his children appear on these lists, It's assumed he's alive at this time.
Land records indicate that francis died before 1761.
According to a deed between his son, Francis, and Peter Knott (10 Mar 1761) Francis died intestate.

Health: The copies of the Bible records were found in records at the monmouth County Hist. Soc., and the originals have not been seen. The bible record that doesn't list Lewis Jeffrey is probobly older, and on the dates that don't match, I would choose this record. The bible record mentioning Lewis Jeffrey seems to be that of Richard Jeffrey or one of his children. As Francis Jr didn't leave a recorded will, these bible records are very important in figuiring out the Jeffrey family tree.
