Birth*1739 John Pipes Jr (Capt) was born in 1739 at New Jersey?? Birth year backed into as age 82 on tombstone. 
Note* He When researching, notice that several of John's children married Grays and Harmons. In Gray, Pipes, Harmon (by Ellsberrry) - "In a letter from an older relative, Fannie Lou Edwards, to Dr Stith Thompson, in 1910 she wrote that John Pipes had six sons before he married Mary Morris. (C.B. Pipes suggests that they were : Joseph, George, John, Sylvanus, and possibly Matthew and Hiram. While Captain John Pipes was a lieutenant in New Jersey, he served under Captain Sylvanus Seely.)" But John Hawkins notes that (professional researcher) Mrs _inn found info indicating Sylvanus was too old to be son of Captain John, and is more likely a brother.
Lots of other speculation and facts in Hawkins correspondance.
 
Marriage*circa 1762 He married Jemima Harriman, daughter of John Harriman and Miriam Blockman, circa 1762 at Connecticut According to letter from John Hawkins: "No one has found a marriage record in Connecticut or anywhere else for John and Jemima.
