Note: N4378 In an email August 07, 2007 Mike Morissey states:
"I believe Maria {Updike, b. September 5, 1835} is living with her uncle, Samuel Montgomery Updike, in the 1850 census of Princeton, Mercer, NJ, pg 26 b. I think there is a good chance that Samuel's wife, "Matilda" (or Ellen/Hellen A., as she appears in the census) Stockton, was related to Maria's future husband, Edward Stockton".

SOMERSET COUNTY MARRIAGE LICENSES--1795-1879
From Somerset Co Historical Quarterly:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~kindred/MSom1795.txt
Stockton, Edward and Caroline Updyke, July 2, 1834 (Rice).
The license would list a bondsman, often a relative, and indicate if Rice was a Justice of the Peace or a clergyman. If a clergyman, we might be able to tell which church they attended. Edward's brother, Ebenezer and his family may have attended the same church and have records of his family.
A copy of Edward Stockton & Maria Updike's marriage license may be helpful as well
Stockton, Edward and Maria Updike, Aug. 20, 1853 (Romeyn).
