According to http://rea-williams.com/getperson.php?personID=I7451&tree=tree1
Richard Haines, his wife Margaret and five children, sailed from Aynehoe, Northamptonshire, England on the "Amity" 23 April 1682. Richard became ill on the journey and died before reaching America. His widow arrived with six children, one, Joseph, was born on ship during the journey. The family settled in the New Jersey area. `
The village of Aynho is on a rocky hill 2¾ miles east by north from Deddington. It was a Roman town, and the Roman Portway (a Roman feeder road) runs through the parish and is (or was) visible at the eastern end of the village. During the Commonwealth Robert WILD, Presbyterian minister, poet, and satirist, held forth in St. Michael's, the parish church. He was ejected from the living in 1662, after the restoration of the Stuart monarchy. In 1671 Mrs. Mary CARTWRIGHT founded a free school in the village.[2] This is the village our ancestors would have known.
Richard and his wife Margaret became Quakers sometimes between 1672 when one child was baptized in St. Michael's parish church in Aynho, and 1676 when the birth of their next child was listed in the records of Banbury Monthly Meeting, Oxfordshire. Banbury, although across the Cherwell River in Oxfordshire, is also part of King's Sutton Hundred. The baptism of their son Richard, Jr. on August 6, 1665 is the first mention of Richard Sr., I've found in English records.
Richard and Margaret's oldest son, John, emigrated to the new world with the John BORTON family, another Quaker family from Aynho.
Richard was a husbandman, but had accumulated enough capital to be a First Purchaser of 100 acres of land in West Jersey. He made the purchase April 21, 1682 from Edward BYLLYNGE. It may be that this land was laid out in Eleventh Month [January] 1682/3 along the south side of the South Branch of Northampton River, in the name of their eldest son, John "Hayes". Two days after the purchase the family sailed from the Downs on board the Amity. They were fellow passengers with William and James Paxson and their families. During the voyage Richard sickened and died. Soon after, Margaret gave birth to their son, whom she named Joseph.
It really required the labor of two parents to survive in their new home, and Margaret married for the second time, May 6, 1685, Henry BURCHAM, or Bircham, of Bucks County, Pennsylvania. The marriage was under the care of Burlington Monthly Meeting and held at the house of Thomas GARDINER in Burlington.
(Research):HAINES-Richard and Margaret Haines arrived on the "Amity" from Northamptonshire, England, on Fourth month 23d, 1682. Richard Haines died and his son, Joseph, was born during the passage to America. Their children were John, Richard, William, Thomas, Mary, Joseph and Dorothy. John Haines, who came over two years before the arrival of his parents married Esther Borton, daughter of John and Ann Borton, the founders of the Borton family in Burlington County on Tenth month, 10th, 1684, and settled on the Rancocas near Lumberton. Richard married Mary Carlisle, a daughter of an Indian Sachem in 1699 and settled on the Rancocas near Lumberton. According to family tradition, they lived for a while in a cave in the bank of the creek. Richard married Mary Carlisle, a daughter of an Indian Sachem in 1699 and settled in Evesham Township. William married Sarah Payne in 1695 and Thomas married Elizabeth Austin in 1692 and settled in Northampton Township. All bearing the name Haines now living in or near Moorestown are descended from Richard and Margaret Haines. The flames family is a very old English family, whose lineage can be traced back to the Sixth Century. The name was originally spelled Haynes.
