Notes:
[1]While the Federalists in Cumberland County made no organized effort to run a separate ticket, two of the candidates placed in nomination were well known members of that party. Both of these men were elected. The large number of votes listed John Mayhew in Maurice River township, and also for William B. Ewing in Downe township suggest that many Federalist turned out to support those candidates.
[2]John Mayhew died on October 23, 1822. This was just one day after the State Legislature had convened.
[3]"Owing to the death of John Mayhew, a vacancy occurs during this session of the Legislature in the Cumberland representation." Washington Whig (Bridgeton, NJ) October 26, 1822.
