INDEX

Andrew Heath sailed from England in 1682 and arrived in Delaware Bay on 29 SEP 1682 on the ship “Friends’ Adventure”. Elizabeth was also a passenger on the "Friends' Adventure" with her husband William Venables and their daughters Frances and Joyce. Her brother Thomas also settled here. After William's death on October 17th 1683, she married Lawrence Bannor. They had a son Lawrence who was born on November 20th 1685. By August 4th 1694, she was already married to Andrew when they sold 300 acres of William Venables' estate to Gilbert Wheeler. Andrew, Elizabeth, Francis, Joyce and her husband John Huchinson sold 416 2/3 acres to John Snowden on March 9th 1697, indicating that Joyce was already married to John Hutchinson by this date. Elizabeth is last mentioned on March 14th 1702, when she signed her mark to sell the remaining 220 acres of William Venables' estate to Peter Worrall. Andrew, Francis, Joyce and her husband John also signed the document.
Baldwin & County Court records 23:219:
"Elizabeth's parents are named by Frank C. Baldwin as Andrew and Elizabeth (Barrett) Heath. Andrew is identified as the same may who arrived in 1682 as the bonded servant to William Yardley; possibly Yardley's nephew. Baldwin states that 'they came from Staffordshire in England and settled in Lower Makefield Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. On July 29, 1686, Andrew was released after four years of bonded service. Andrew Heath moved to New Jersey in 1699 when he bought 420 acres of land near present-day Trenton. About 1703 he helped established the Hopewell Church, on of the first Episcopal Churches in the area. And in 1705 four of Andrew's children were baptized there: Andrew, Elizabeth, John, and Sarah.' Andrew made his will on the 3rd of January 1716/7 and the instrument was proved on the 29th of December 1720 in which he names his wife Hannah and children: Martha, John, Elizabeth, Andrew, Sarah, and Richard. He also names his grandchildren: Elizabeth, Abigail, and Andrew Pettit and his wife's children: Daniel Clark, Samuel Clark, and Hannah Clark.
"Baldwin writes of the Heath family and quotes from Louise H. Tunison and
Althea F. Courtot's work "The Heath Family of Hunterdon County, New
Jersey; a 1977 manuscript in the collection of the Hunterdon County Historical
Society. Andrew Heath married twice, first to the widow Elizabeth Barrett
Venables Bannor. She had married first William Venables who is also found as a
passenger on the same ship as the one Andrew Heath and the Yardleys arrived on.
Venables died leaving his widow and two daughters Joyce and Frances. Elizabeth
remarried to a Lawrence Bannor. She married Andrew Heath after 1688 and died by
1699 when Andrew and his step-daughter Joyce leave an instrument conveying
land. Andrew married secondly the widow Hannah Clark, whose maiden name
unknown."
