He was said to be married (not a widower) to Mary Voorhees. This may have been a later life marriage. It appears he had two daughters, Mary E., 1889, and Isabella, b1891 to a wife who apparently died before 1900. It appears that some of his information has been confused with that of his brother William in the Woodland Cemetery database. At the time of death he was living at 20 Warren Place, Newark and the informant was Etta Coll of Irvington. |

Her father was Charles Zinkon of Germany and her mother Regina. The informant to her death certificate was daughter Mabel E.

She was the child of Charles Frederick and Julia M. (Zinkon) Ecker. Born about 1891. Her first husband, Wallace F. Gracie died young. She would have had time to marry but she was still single and living with her daughter Mabel in 1930. | |

Whittaur or Whittam, Irvington, NJ; "Amer. steel vault" | This is an interesting story. Mary Harrison Squire is the sister (or half sister) of Hannah E Squire. According to her death certificate, she and was born Aug 8,1843 to Henry Nathan Squire and Mary Gardner. She died Dec 17, 1911. Mary H had a first husband, Samuel A Jarvis in 1858. I am unaware of children by this marriage. She remarried Christian Phillip Ecker, her brother-in-law (the second marriage for both) and appears to have had at least 4 children with him: Julia T 1867, Mary E. 1869, Emma J, c1876, and Christian A. 1881. I do not currently have much additional information about these children. |
