Notes: The user-submitted record, which gives no sources, states Thomas Edgerton and Elizabeth Saint were married in Haddonfield, Gloucester, New Jersey. From Quaker records, Binns has them petitioning the Haddonfield Quaker Meeting for re-admission into the church after marrying outside of it (pp. 1-2). Exactly where they were married remains unknown, but Binns also has them marrying in Haddonfield. Both sources agree on the date. Haddonfield, New Jersey is now in Camden County. Camden County was created from a portion of Gloucester County on March 13, 1844.
"Thomas Edgerton, Jr., son of Thomas Edgerton and Sarah Stephens born about 1735; d 4-24-1794. Married 4-27-1759 Elizabeth Saint, at Haddonfield, NJ. She died about 1776. Thomas remarried 5-21-1778, Sarah Cox, b 8-21-1751, Dobbs County, North Carolina. Married at the house of Richard Cox on Neuse River, North Carolina."
I don't know at this time what relationship Richard Cox had to Sarah. Her father was Thomas Cox.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Thomas by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Thomas:
Having a difficult time confirming Thomas Edgerton Jr. and Sarah Ann Cox were the parents of Ann Edgerton (Colyer) and William Edgerton. I only see a William Edgerton in a family history but not sure if Thomas and Sara Ann were the parents
