 | | John Gosling without any title of doctor appears in New Jersey records on 5-7 September 1682 when Thomas Budd of Burlington, merchant, conveyed to John Gosling of New York, merchant, one eighth of a share of land (NJA-Deeds, 21:405, 407). |
 | | John Gosling, merchant, had served in the Burlington Count as a justice with Thomas Gardner, Thomas Budd and Thomas Revell in 1683-1684 so was known by these men, the first two of whom were Quakers (John E. Stillwell, "Historical and Genealogical Miscellany" (Baltimore, 1970) 2:7, 9, 35). |
 | | There were several Gosling families living in Barbados at this time as evidenced by wills proved there, so it seems probable that Mary Savery and John Gosling had married there as Quakers and gone to New York before settling in Burlington, New Jersey, about September 1682. |
