Note

The marriage of Joseph Hackney and Charity Harlan in 1731 was recorded at Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) Church in Wilmington, in what became Delaware. This marriage would have been out of unity with Friends, among whom both Joseph and Charity supposedly had their "birth and education". But I have not found evidence that either of them were "dealt with" by Friends. Another difficulty is that apparently some marriages were recorded by the church even though they were not solemnized there. When he died in 1744 Joseph was "probably" buried in the Friends burying ground at "Old Centre" Meeting, New Castle County. At the time of her second marriage, Charity was a member in good standing of Centre Meeting. More research is needed, especially in Friends' records. My hypothesis at this point is that Charitay and Joseph were both Friends and married with Friends' procedure, and the record was just included by Old Swedes in its records in its effort to be a quasi-public repository.
