    Joseph Bonham 
    • according to research published more recently by Howard E. Bonham, and also cited by Ms. Cecilia B. Parke, a historian of the Parke family, in the 1750s and 1760s Joseph Bonham was resident in the household of his uncle and aunt, Cornelius and Catherine Runyon Anderson, in Hunterdon County. Of course, such an arrangement would be indicative of a close family relationship. This is further supported by archived New Jersey civil records confirming that Joseph Bonham was a witness to the will of Cornelius Anderson, which was made in Hunterdon County on December 6, 1765, and proved August 19, 1768.
