  4.   The marriage of Anthony Lines with Elizabeth Moore must be confirmed. Based on the pension application of his daughter Fanny Simonson, it is likely that Elizabeth Moore was married to another, contemporary Anthony Lines. Confirmation required.
  5.   No will for Anthony Lines was probated in the newly formed Passaic County (1837-). Further research in Essex and Bergen counties required.
