General Notes:
MERCY RUSLING, third daughter of James Rusling (first by Hannah Rose), was born at or near Newburgh, Warren County, New Jersey, and died at or near Albion, Michigan. She married Samuel G. Encke at my father's house, Washington, New Jersey. When my mother died (1838), Aunt Mercy came to live with us, as my father's housekeeper, and Mr. Encke courted her while there, and I remember their courtship and wedding very well. She was very kind and affectionate to all of us motherless children, and we all regretted her marriage and departure, but she married a very worthy man. He was then a country merchant, at Richmond, Northampton County, Penna., but soon afterwards he bought a farm at or near there and they lived there many years. But about the year 1863 they removed to Michigan, and bought a farm at or near Albion. 1
Mercy married Samuel Gulich ENCKE, son of Joseph Wilkinson ENCKE and Margaret JONES, on 7 Mar 1839 in Washington, New Jersey. (Samuel Gulich ENCKE was born on 6 Mar 1813 in N Hampton Co, PA and died on 4 Feb 1906 in Albion, Jackson County, Michigan, USA.)
