5601 The name Israel Osborn(e) appears 4 times in the Barbour collection of Windsor Vital Records and zero times in the East Windsor Vital Records, however none of the entries are our Israel Osborne. It is important to be aware of these names to be able to avoid confusion as we are searching for our Israel Osborne. We have Israel, son of Samuel and Mary, born 6 Feb 1731/32; Israel who married Demaris Bancroft 18 Apr 1751(possibly the same as the previous Israel); Israel, the son of Israel and Demaris, born 26 Nov, 1753; and Israel born to Anna Stiles, 2 July 1751, reputed to be the son of Israel(again perhaps the first Israel we listed).

The spelling of his surname sometimes appears as Osborn and sometimes as Osborne or Osbourn. In the era we are investigating, the actual spelling did not make a difference. I am using Osborne to be consistent with today’s spelling, unless I am directly referencing a specific document, in which case I will use the actual spelling in that document.

BIRTH:
1773. We presume he was born in Windsor or East Windsor, as that is where numerous descendants of John the immigrant reside. Although it is certainly possible that Israel is descended from another Osborne line which just happened to move into the same area as John’s line. We have no documentation of nor any indication of who his parents were. His gravestone in Tinker Cemetery, Henrietta, New York reads simply “Israel Osborn 1773 - 1859”. His age as given in the 1850 federal census would agree with 1773. His age as given in the 1855 New York census would agree with 1774.

MARRIAGE:
By 1798 to Anna Hayden. Jabez Haskell Hayden in his 1888 book “Records of the Connecticut Line of the Hayden Family” states that Anna Hayden married Israel Osborn of East Windsor. Henry Stiles in his 1891 book “The History and Genealogies of Ancient Windsor Connecticut 1635-1891” also states the same. Neither book gives a date. We estimate 1797 as the marriage year based upon the birth of their first child in 1798, although there is an unreferenced IGI entry which lists 1793 as the marriage date. (IGI records with only a year are usually unreliable, as the lack of a specific date indicates that the information probably did not come from a church, governmental or other marriage document). Anna was born Nov 1772, per the same books, to John Hayden and Anna Trumbull, both of East Windsor.

DEATH:
Died July 1859 in Henrietta per the US Census Mortality Schedule (Henrietta, Monroe, New York) from 1860.

BURIAL:
Buried in Tinker Cemetery in Henrietta, Monroe, New York.
Gravestone inscription: Israel Osborn 1773-1859

REAL ESTATE:
East Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut:
1 Jul 1773. Lamson Wells purchased land from “Israel Osborn of East Windsor”. This is too early to be our Israel Osborne. Perhaps this is one of the Israel’s from Windsor which we listed earlier. East Windsor Real Estate Records 1-180 filed 3 Aug 1876.
24 Aug 1796. Israel Osborn purchases land from James Pease for 300 Pounds. Based upon the legal description we can tie this land in with all of the remaining transactions involving Israel Osborn in East Windsor. East Windsor Real Estate Records 8-47 filed 24 Aug 1876.
28 Aug 1809. Israel Osborn of East Windsor sells a portion of his land to Jonathon Barber. Again, based on the legal description this was part of the land he purchased in 1796. East Windsor Real Estate Records 13-143 filed 12 Dec 1811.
13 Apr 1810. Israel Osborn of East Windsor files a Mortgage Deed to Asa A Ewing. Again, based on the legal description this was part of the land he purchased in 1796. East Windsor Real Estate Records 12-227 filed 12 Apr 1810.
28 Sep 1827. “Israel Osborn of Brighton, Monroe County, New York” files a Quit Claim Deed to Asa A Ewing. Again, based on the legal description this was part of the land he purchased in 1796. East Windsor Real Estate Records 17-337 filed 18 Feb 1829.

Henrietta, Monroe, New York
10 Mar 1825. Israel, Israel Hayden & Charles Osborne purchased from Sally McCullock. Monroe County Deeds 66-281-1 Henrietta.
11 Sep 1859. To settle the estate of Israel Osborn. For money paid all of the “heirs at law” signed their claim over to Charles Osborne. Signers were Israel H Osborn, John & Ursula McGonegal, Franklin(son of Mary Osborne, deceased) and Susan Leggett, Nathaniel and Roxy Osborn, William E and Ann Eliza Osborn. Monroe County Deeds 147-271-1 Henrietta.
May 16, 1881. After Charles died this property went to William H. and Mary E Osborne of Portsmouth Township, Bay City, Michigan. The property was then promptly sold to Jeremiah Starkweather.

CENSUS RECORDS:
1800 Federal. Israel Osbourn appears in East Windsor on page 4 of 13 in East Windsor. This census shows 16 Osborn households in East Windsor along with 1 more household in Windsor. Although there are 6 other Osborn households on page 4 in East Windsor, there is nothing to connect Israel Osborn to any of the other Osborn households. He is at least several households separated from the others. In 1800 Windsor has 11 pages and 1 Osborn household, while East Windsor has 13 pages and 16 Osborn households. This seems to be a disconnect from the numbers in 1810. I suspect that there are pages missing from the 1800 Windsor census.

The ages and number of household members and who they possibly are:
Males 26-44: 1 Israel 27

5602 The name of Henry Livingston's first wife, whom he probably married around 1520, is unknown, but it has been suggested that she was a daughter of Alexander Livingston of Dunipace. Henry's marriage to his second wife Margaret Forrester is estimated as in the neighborhood of 1545.[1]

From https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Livingston-3192
"The election of Henry of Falkirk as Provost or Mayor of Stirling in 1553 over incumbant John Craigengelt of that Ilk resulted in a feud between the two families and their supporters. Hostilities erupted on 21 August 1555, culminating in Craigengelt's losing his left arm and his son Robert's left arm being cut off by Henry and his sons William and Thomas."[2]

"In 1562 Henry and his wife Margaret Forrester received two acres of land in Stirling, and in 1574 and his wife Dame Margaret Forrester borrowed money from the Duncanson sisters' grandfather, John Duncanson, minister of Stirling."[3]

Children by first wife:

Alexander (c. 1522-1563/4)
Mary/Margaret (c. 1524-aft. 1574), m. Mr. David Rollock of Powis.
William (c. 1526-aft. 1594)
(Sir) John of Abercorn (c. 1528-aft. 1610), m. 1567 Elizabeth Carmichael.
Bartholomewa (c. 1530-aft. 1550)
Janet (c. 1532-aft. 1578), m. Ninian Aitoun.
(Mr.) Thomas (c. 1536-aft. 1599), m. Helen Little, wet nurse to King James VI/I.
Children by second wife Margaret Forrester:

James (c. 1546-aft. Apr. 1565).
David (c. 1548-aft. 1581).
Helen (c. 1556-aft. 1579).
(Mr.) Henry (c. 1560-1624), m. Agnes Gray. 
Livingston, Henry (I9781)
 
5603 The name Sarah Irish appears on death certificate of two of her children, Hiram and Edna and also appears on Marriage Record of Edna. Hiram's brother also married an Irish female.

In 1855 Oakland County land records show that Sarah Maxfield transferred land to Liberty Irish (son of David). The document is in the name of Sarah Maxfield, but also has Hiram Maxfields signature and the signature of Polly Malinda Irish (apparently daughter of David) Book 55 page 338-9. This is the entry right after book 55 page 337-8 dated 10 June 1855 whereby Varnis Maxfield quit claimed to Manly Irish (son of David). Book 55 page 339-40 involves Liberty and Damon Irish transferring to Manly Irish. As David died 8 Jan 1855 these transfers may have had something to do with the settling of David's estate. Which could imply that Sarah Maxfield is an heir to David Irish.

The 1820 cenus shows David Irish with one female in the household under the age of 10. The 1820 census shows 1 female in the household between the age of 10 and 15. We do not know of any female children in that age range other than Sarah.

On the 1840 Federal Census the household next to David Irish is Hiram Maxfield and Sarah Irish, which suggests a relation between David and Sarah.

5604 The New England Historical and Genealogical Register 166 (October 2012):245-58 (Part 1), "The Earliest Shermans of Dedham, Essex, and Their Wives," "Part I: Henry Sherman the Elder and His Wives," by Michael Johnson Wood. A small excerpt from the article (see article for a very lengthy documented narrative):
"Henry Sherman, a prominent clothier in Dedham, who died in 1590, had several children. His two eldest sons, Henry the younger and Edmund, had between them fifteen grandchildren who settled in New England, either as young adults or with their parents. They did not all leave issue, but most did, which is why so many descendants of Great Migration colonists have a Sherman line.[1]
In "New Light on Henry Sherman," Mrs. B. L. Stratton conclusively proved that Henry Sherman the elder was not the son of that name of Thomas Sherman of Yaxley, Suffolk.[2] That Henry, who was under age 21 in 1551, had a son Thomas who in 1587 was living in Diss, Norfolk, where his children were living in the early 1600s. In contrast, Henry Sherman the Dedham clothier was born about 1512, settled in Dedham about 1534, was fathering children in the 1540s, and was not survived by a son named Thomas. Exhaustive research, by myself and others before me, has yielded no clue to the true origin of the Dedham clothier.
The Shermans of Yaxley were armigerous, whereas the Shermans of Dedham were not; otherwise; they should have been recorded in at least one of the Visitations of Essex. Yet they were not recorded there, and they did not even put in a claim that had to be respited for further evidence. They had no such pretensions until a little before 1660, when one of Henry’s great-grandsons, Edmund Sherman, a London merchant, was using the arms of Sherman of Yaxley, according to Guillim, but without authority.[3] A thorough search of the records of the College of Arms, reported by Mrs. Stratton, did not produce any arms registered to a male-line descendant of the Dedham family.[4] …
GENEALOGICAL SUMMARY
HENRY SHERMAN[64] was born about 1512,[65] perhaps in Essex. He settled in Dedham, Essex about 1534, and late in life in Colchester, Essex, about 1584. He died between 26 February 1589/90 and 25 July 1590 (dates of codicil and probate), probably in Colchester. His first wife, whom he married about 1539, was perhaps A DAUGHTER OF ROBERT PERPOYNT of Dedham [See article for the heavily documented logic for this statement]. She was probably identical with AGNES, wife of Henry Sherman the elder, who was buried in Dedham 14 October 1580. He married next in Dedham 5 June 1581, MARION (___) (SMYTHE) WILSON, widow of Thomas Smythe of Dedham, then of Edmund Wilson of St. Leonard’s, Colchester, whom she had married in Dedham 5 April 1563 . She was perhaps "Mrs Sherman" buried at St. James, Colchester, 4 August 1584. Henry married last MARGERY ___, who was living when he made his will.
As Henry Shearman the elder, of Colchester, Essex, he left a will dated 20 January 1589/90, with a codicil dated 26 February 1589/90, proved in London 25 July 1590.[66] The will named son Henry Shearman and his children Henry, Samuel, Daniel, John, Ezechiell, Phebe, Nathaniel, and Anne Shearman; son Edmonde Shearman and his children Edmonde, Richard, Bezaliell, Anne, and Sara Shearman (all under age; sons under 22, daughters under 21), son-in-law William Petfield and his children Richard, Susan, and Elizabeth Petfield (all under age); wife Margerye; son Robert; Jane and Anne Shearman, underage daughters of Robert [evidently the testator’s son Robert]; daughter Judith Petfield; son-in-law Nicholas Fynce; the wives of sons Edmond, Henry, and Robert; the poor of All Hallows [i.e., All Saints, Colchester]; and the poor of Dedham and the free school of Dedham (the testator asked to be buried in Dedham). Executors were to be sons Henry and Edmond.
Children of Henry Sherman and his first wife (if Agnes was his second wife, she could have been the mother of at least one of the youngest children):
i. ALICE SHERMAN, b. say 1540; bur. Dedham 20 Oct. 1580 as Alice, wife of Nicholas Fince; m. ca. 1562, as his first wife, NICHOLAS FINCE, b. after 25 Aug. 1532 (date of his father’s will), bur. Dedham 28 Feb. 1593/4, son of John and Ellen (___) Fince of Ardleigh, Essex.[67] Nicholas and Alice had seven children baptized in Dedham from 1562/3 to 1578. The burials of five in infancy or childhood are recorded there, and the other two children, Judith and Alice, may have died young also as they were not named in their grandfather’s will.[68]
ii. JUDITH SHERMAN, b. say 1543, bur. Dedham 1 April 1601 as Judith, wife of William Petfield; m. Dedham 27 June 1566 WILLIAM PETFIELD, clothier, living in 1610,[69] probably the elder son of John Petfield of Earls Colne, Essex, clerk, whose undated will proved 17 June 1572, names also a younger son Matthew.[70] William and Judith had nine children baptized in Dedham from 1567 to 1588, the eldest being named Matthew.
iii. HENRY SHERMAN, b. say 1545; m. SUSAN Lawrence. See Part 2.
iv. EDMUND SHERMAN, b. say 1548; m. (1) ANN PELLETT; (2) ANN CLERE. See Parts 3 and 4.
v. John Sherman, b. say 1551,[71] bur, Dedham 16 Oct. 1576, unmarried. He left an undated nuncupative will, probably proved in 1576.[72] The will mentioned brothers-in-law "William Pettfylld" and "Nycollas Fynce"; brother Robert Sharman; "my mother"; and "my father."
vi. Thomas SHERMAN, b. say 1555; bur. Dedham 16 March 1563/4. Probably he was the godson of Thomas Butter, as discussed above.
vii. ROBERT SHERMAN,[73] bp. Dedham 6 Feb. 1559/60; bur. St. Stephen Coleman Street, London, 14 Jan. l602/3.[74] He was educated at Cambridge University, and became a Fellow of the College of Physicians in 1599[75] He m. (1) Dedham 9 Dec. 1583 BARBARA BROWNE, bp. Dedham 1 April 1561, daughter of Martin and Katherine (Reynolds) (Warner) Browne;[76] (2) shortly after 4 July 1597 BRIDGET JENNEY, daughter of Francis and Margaret (Peyton) Jenney.[77] Robert’s will, dated 10 Jan. 1602/3, proved 20 Jan. 1602/3,[78] names wife Bridget; children Jane, Mary, Anne, and Robert; son Richard. Brother Henry Sherman was to be executor…”

5605 The only source for the 1746 birthdate and the 1830 death date appears to be an old DAR application. No sources were used. No sources can be found. The Joseph Degroat of Ulster County in the New York Militia listed an age of 24 in August of 1776. That would be a birth year of 1752. We do not know if that is the same Joseph Degroat. A Joseph Degroat appears on the Ulster County Census in 1790, 1800 and 1810. As it appears our Joseph was living in Quebec during that time period, it does not seem to be the same Joseph.

Heinrich/Henrich/Henry Ruiter (Joseph's father in law) a loyalist who fled to Ontario has mentioned his 'son-in-law Joseph Degroat' on some documents in Quebec. As we do have autosomal DNA matches through other children of Joseph and through other children of Henry Ruiter, It makes sense that our Joseph is the Joseph in Quebec with his wife and her father, Henry Ruiter.

The connection between Joseph and his assumed father, Pieter De Groot is very weak. Pieter DeGroat has one thrulines match through his son Johannes, however shared matches on that match do not indicate any other Degroat connections. Interestingly, thru Joseph's granddad we show 2 thruline connections thru Joseph's brother Johannes which both show shared matches indicative of Degroat ancestry. Perhaps Pieter's brother, Johannes is the father of Joseph. Although we have Johannes birth record, we have no proof he married and had children. His granddad's will did not mention a child named Johannes.

5606 The records from his migration to Denmark show that he was from Ober-Schönmattenwag, a small village located 3 miles south of Wald-Michelbach. The parish records of Wald-Michelbach record the birth of his parents, spouse and siblings. These German parish records do not note the actual place of birth, only that they were members of the Evangelical parish of Wald-Michelbach. (according to Wikipedia; on the occasion of the territorial reform in Hesse, the regional government approved the integration of the municipality of Ober-Schönmattenwag into the municipality of Wald-Michelbach with effect from 31 December 1971. )

From cvgs/origins website:
Johann Michael Johann was born on 28 February 1739 in Ober-Schönmattenwag (east of Weinheim). He immigrated to Denmark (Schleswig-Holstein) and settled in the colony of Veltenhof. He married on 26 May 1760 in the colony of Fredericia (Denmark) to Eva Margaretha Sattler. She was born in about 1736 in Affolterbach.
They immigrated to Russia in 1763, and arrived in the colony of Anton on 7 September 1764. They and their children are recorded on the 1767 census of Anton where Michael is serving as the Vorsteher (mayor) in Household No. 1.

From http://www.russia-colonists.eu/wandere.htm by Gerhard Lang
MIGRATION OF COLONISTS FROM GERMANY IN 1761 TO SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN AND LATER TO THE VOLGA IN 1763.
In 1761, the Danish king (Duke of Schleswig-Holstein) recruited people from souther Germany to settle in Schleswig-Holstein, to drain the bogs and swamps and make the land productive. Many Germans answered the appeal. Later the worsening economic situation and resentment by local domestic workmen caused some colonists to break their contract with the king and desert. As the number of desertions increased, provision was made for colonists to apply for permission to leave.
At the same time, czarina Katharina the Great issued the manifesto that encouraged people to come to Russia. Among the inducements was provision for advance payment of colonist costs for the journey. There was a resident recruiter of colonists in Kiel.
The colonist records in Schleswig show that many colonists left, some requesting permission to do so while others simply deserted without a trace. Transport lists of those leaving from Travemünde and Lübeck are not to be found.
The Kuhlberg lists do provide listings of colonists arriving in Russia. The Volga village census records are another source. By comparing family names and their names and ages of family members, I come to the conclusion that there is a high probability that many of the families that left Schleswig-Holstein became colonists on the Volga.

5609 the text in this section is copied from an article in Wikipedia:

Ulysses S. Grant (born Hiram Ulysses Grant; April 27, 1822 - July 23, 1885) was the 18th President of the United States (1869-1877) and military commander during the Civil War and post-war Reconstruction. Under Grant, the Union Army defeated the Confederate military and effectively ended the war with the surrender of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia at Appomattox. Grant, born in Ohio of English and Scottish ancestry, shunned his father's trade, but had exhibited equestrian ability as a youth. With his father's guidance, he began a lifelong military career after graduating from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1843. He fought in the Mexican-American War, resigned from the Army in 1854, and then struggled in business, while nurturing his growing family in St. Louis and Galena, Illinois.

When the American Civil War began in 1861, Grant trained Union volunteer regiments as a colonel, and engaged the Confederates near Cairo, Illinois. In 1862, he fought a series of battles and was promoted to major general. He then led fierce combat at the Battle of Shiloh, earned a reputation as an aggressive commander, and eventually seized control of most of Kentucky and Tennessee. In July 1863, after a long, complex campaign, Grant defeated five uncoordinated Confederate armies (capturing one of them) and seized Vicksburg. This famous victory gave the Union full control of the Mississippi River, split off the western Confederacy, and opened the way for more Union triumphs. After another win at the Battle of Chattanooga in late 1863, President Abraham Lincoln made him lieutenant general and commander of all of the Union Armies. As Commanding General of the United States Army from 1864 to 1865, Grant confronted Robert E. Lee in a series of very high casualty battles known as the Overland Campaign that ended in a stalemate siege at Petersburg. During the siege, Grant coordinated a series of devastating campaigns launched by William Tecumseh Sherman, Philip Sheridan, and George Thomas. Finally breaking through Lee's trenches at Petersburg, the Union Army captured Richmond, the Confederate capital, in April 1865. Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox; the Civil War soon ended and the Confederacy collapsed. Although Lee's allies denounced Grant in the 1870s as a ruthless butcher who won by brute force, most historians have hailed his military genius.

During Reconstruction, General Grant implemented Congressional plans to reoccupy the South and hold elections in 1867, including black voters, which gave Republicans control of the Southern states. Enormously popular in the North after the Union victory, Grant was elected to the presidency in 1868. Reelected in 1872, he became the first president to serve two full terms since Andrew Jackson. As president, he effected Reconstruction by signing and enforcing civil rights laws and fighting Ku Klux Klan violence. He helped rebuild the Republican Party in the South, an effort that resulted in the election of African Americans to Congress and state governments for the first time. Grant's foreign policy, led by Sec. Hamilton Fish, implemented International Arbitration, settled the Alabama Claims with Britain and kept the United States out of war with Spain over the Virginius Incident.

Nevertheless, Grant's presidency was marred by economic disaster and multiple scandals in his administration. Political infighting between Sen. Charles Sumner and Grant, over Grant's attempted annexation of the Dominican Republic and patronage, initiated a Republican party split in 1872. His response to the Panic of 1873 and the severe depression that followed was heavily criticized. His inferior Cabinet and federal appointments and lack of accountability generated corruption in seven government departments. In 1876, his reputation was severely damaged by the graft trials of the Whiskey Ring. His image as a war hero was tarnished by the scandals during his presidency and he left office with diminished popularity. After leaving office, Grant embarked on a two-year world tour that included many enthusiastic royal receptions. In 1880, he made an unsuccessful bid for a third presidential term. In 1884, insolvent and dying of cancer, he wrote his memoirs. Historians until recently have given Grant's presidency the worst rankings; his reputation, however, has significantly improved because of greater appreciation for his enforcement of African American voting and citizenship rights during Reconstruction.

Married Julia Boggs Dent and had four children: Frederick Dent Grant, Ulysses S. Grant, Jr. (Buck), Ellen Wrenshall Grant (Nellie), and Jesse Root Grant.

5610 The Thomas Shaw who came on "The Recovery" in 1633/34 went to Hingham, then to Barnstable where he died in 1672 with no record of a wife or of children. There seems to be no Thomas Shaw in the early records who this could be. John b. 1652, Mehitable b. 1654 and Daniel b. 1658 seem to have parents of Daniel and Mary Shaw according to the Settlers of the Beekman Patent book. Savage mentions Thomas Shaw, states his will does not mention a wife of children. States perhaps no wife or children. Perhaps this is someone who immigrated closer to the 1650's and did not appear in any earlier records. In any case, we cannot identify this person. Shaw, Thomas (I7459)
 
5611 The Thrall Genealogy states William Thrall of Windsor had at least two sons, Timothy and David. John Winthrop, in his genealogical journal mentions that John Hosfords wife is the brother of Timothy Thrall of Windsor.(TAG 1948 p112)

NEHGS has entry under search of cemetery transcriptions (but doesn't show which cemetery??): John Hosford d. May 1868, m. Phillury 5 Nov 1657, dau of William Thrall, d. 7 Aug 1683

NEHGS- from "The Descendants of Benjamin Cooley": John Hosford, b. prob England, d. Aug 7, 1693(Savage d. Nov or May 8, 1698, Stiles) m. Nov 5, 1657, Philippa (Phillury) Thrall, dau William who was among the first settlers of Dorchester. William Thrall served in the Pequot war, and d. Aug 3, 1679, age 73. His wife d. 30 Dec 1676.

Phillipi Hosford is mentioned in the will of William Thrall. Also Philippi's child, Sarah Hosford is mentioned in the will. See will notes under William Thrall.

Most online trees show Philippa dying on 7 Aug 1683, the same date her husband died. But that is not correct. His probate file shows his widow Philippa as one of the administrators of his estate, so obviously she could not have died on the same date as him.

5612 The tomb of Susanna Maser (nee Mueller) is still in place and secured in the outer wall of Lengfelder church. The inscription reads this epitaph: 'Here rests the honor and virtuous wife Anna Maria Maserin: Anna was born 1668 - Marty, went into the marriage in 1691 - 25 February with the ehrengeachteten Mr. John Maser, official mayor down here, have in marriage, ongoing ... Four children two sons and two daughters born, So still live as long as God wants, died anno 1731, 2nd November has, brought her age to 63 years and six Months.
The tomb is made of red sandstone and is approximately 185 cm high and was probably later walled in the outer wall of the church Lengfelder. In the upper part as one text frame is visible, but who is not completely preserved. Parts of this text read: 'Revelation of John ... who overcomes shall in white dresses ...'. This text is probably from the Revelation of John, chapter 3, verse 5: 'He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments and I will not blot out his name from the book of life, and I will call his name before my Father and his angels. " Moreover, the inscription on two well-preserved figures of angels to see the hold with her hands a coat of arms. The emblem shows a two or three fruits (apples?) Or leaves after obweisendem arrow (crossbow?) And above in a semicircle three stars. (Adapted from Heath AL Banse, Michel City)

5615 The wife of David Becker b. 1745-1748 is listed on four different documents as Margaretha (in 1766), Anna Margaretha (in 1767), as Katharina Elisabeth (in 1767) and is Margaretha in 1798 as the widow of David Becker. If the 1767 document was incorrect we could assume that Anna Margaretha was his only wife. Otherwise we would have to assume multiple wives to make sense of this. The church book of Werdorf identifies has wife as Anna Maria Steckenmesser of Allendorf. According to Marquadt & Mai #344: David Becker from Berghausen in the area of Gräfenstein & Anna Maria Steckenmeister from Allendorff in the area of Gräfenstein, married 17 May 1766 in Friedburg. For now we are assuming that Anna Maria and Anna Margaretha are the same person and that the listing of Katharina Elisabeth is a mistake.
To assume otherwise would imply the existence of 4 different wives, 2 named Margaretha, one Katharina Elisabeth and one named Anna Maria.

5618 The will of Thomas Buffington mentions 3 children, but not William. Perhaps he died before Thomas. Or perhaps, due to there being no mention of him in the early records, his name is in error and there were only 3 children, Bovanton, William (I7277)
 
5619 There has been some uncertainty in past literature (Austin) and genforum postings as to the identity of Anthony Paine's wife. Since Anthony's son-in-law, John Tripp, at one time referred to his uncle Robert Potter (actually his wife Mary's uncle) Anthony's wife must have been a Potter. This is reinforced by the fact that Anthony's daughter Alice mentioned John Albro and her aunt his wife in her will. She was Dorothy the widow of Nathaniel Potter, son of Robert Potter as named in Robert's will.

In the parish records of Newport-Pagnell, Buckinghamshire the burial of Elizabeth wife of Anthony Payn is recorded as 27 Nov 1636. Also in the records is the baptism of Eliabeth Potter in Oct 1597 parent unnamed. Her birth year fits well with Anthony's 1590 birth as given in the records.The rest of Robert Potter's daughters would have been to young to marry Anthony and have a child (Mary) baptized in 1615. So, it is not too great a leap of faith to say that Anthony Payn's wife was Elizabeth Potter.

Also in the parish records is the burial (6 May 1629) of James son of Anthony Payn. A son, Stephane, is listed as baptized on 11 Jan 1628/(29). It is very likely that he was the cuild listed by Austin as died young. He must have come with Anthony to Rhode Island and died before Anthony wrote his will in 1649. Being listed as son, he would have been under the age of adulthood (18?) at death.

To muddy the waters a little, another Anthony Payn was baptized on 27 Feb 1586/(87) in Newport-Pagnell. No parent was named, but probably Thomas. He must have stayed in England since Martha, daughter of Anthony Payn was buried on 29 May 1639, which is after Anthony the immigrant was in Rhode Island (1638).

An Elizabeth, daughter of Anthony Payn,was baptized in Feb 1617/(18) and apparently married Robert Harvey in 1633. It seems more likely that her father was Anthony the immigrant and that shee was not mwntioned in his will because she died in 1637.

Sources for these data are the parish records of Newport-Pagnell as transcribed by Warren Dawson in 1947 and Phillimore's Buckinghamshire Parish Registers-Marriage Series Volume 9, Pub 1923. The records are missing some years and illegible to the transcribers in many instances. So, there may be more information which will never be covered. 
Paine, Anthony (I7577)
 
5620 There is a Mindt (Georg HH88) household in Schilling on the 1798 census, perhaps that is her correct surname. Her husband's parents were from Schilling. The Mindt spelling is from Brent Mai's 1798 census translation. The AHSGR translation of both the 1775 and 1798 census spells it as Mende. It seems likely that Anna Katharina is the daughter of one of Georg Minde's sons who were born in 1777 and 1780. Mende, Anna Katharina (I3407)
 
5621 There is another Albert Aldrich in Kent County, Michigan of the same age on the 1850-1870 census. Many (if not most) trees have the 2 mixed up. I have not found a direct record of parentage for either one, however the fact that the Macomb county Albert lived 3 households from his father Seth Adrich in 1850 and Albert's widow lived 3 households from Seth in 1870 (I have not found 1860) tells me that the Macomb County Albert is the correct son of Seth. Aldrich, Albert G (I16687)

5636 This from Linda Martino best describes the evidence for Abigail and her siblings being children of Joseph Wise and Hepzibah Bridges. Further genealogy back to the immigrant Edmund Bridges is confirmed through NEHGS records and Great Migrations Entries.

" Although I do not have proof such as a will I believe there is strong evidence that Joseph Jr Wise of Lebanon is the child of Joseph and Hepzibah Bridges.

Joseph Wise & Hepzibah Bridges are married & named as the parents of: Lucy, Hepzibah, Elizabeth, 2 Josephs, John, and Abigail in Gloucester MA records.

We then see Hepzibah, Lucy, and Elizabeth Wise joining the Goshen Congregational Church in 1741. Following that are marriage records for Hepzibah, Elizabeth, Joseph, John, and Abigail in 1749-1756 in Lebanon and the birth of many of their children. A brother of Hepzibah Bridges Wise (Edmund Bridges) is also in Lebanon during this period.

There is a Samuel Wise in Lebanon but I did not find a baptism record for him in Gloucester.

Again although there is not a will the names and dates are completely consistent between the two locations."

5653 This person, his spouse and all ancestors are based on the following message board post and are not yet verified:

I am also descended from the Raboldshausen Zulch`s. I wrote to the minister of the local church and he sent me a great deal of information about our family. The earliest member was Johann Hermann who had a son Johann Lorenz (he married Anna Catharina Reismann in 1753. They had 9 children, Johann Hermann Friedrich, Johanna Margaretha, Johann Justus, Martha Elisabeth, Johann Herrmann, Anna Catharina, Catharina Christina, Johann Herrmann and Anna Margretha.

The eighth child, Johann Herrmann was married twice and had 10 children. His first wife was Anna Catharina Baumart and his second was Barbara Christina Heusner. The children were: Lorenz Friedrich (your ancestor), Johanna Margretha, Martha Elisabeth, Catharina Elisabeth, Jacob Zulch, Anna Katharina (my great great grandmother), Christina Zulch, Johann Ernst, Frederich, and Anna Catharina.

Lorenz Friedrich married Anna Catherina Schultz and they had 3 children: Georg, Friederich, and Catharina Elisabeth. I don`t have any information about Georg other than his birthday, 10-14-1826. His brother Friederich had 10 children, and all I have about Catharina Elisabeth is her birthday, 5-15-1845.

All of my information is from church records in Raboldshausen.......which I would be happy to share with you. I sounds like you have additional information that I don`t have, so we will both benefit.

5655 This Thomas Huls was earlier assumed to be the son of Benjamin Hulse as is reported in many on-line trees.

Benjamin Hulse is not in Richard's line. Descendants of Richard Holsaert (Benjamins ancestor) and of ancestors of Richard Hulse were living on Long Island during the same time period, however the families were apparently not related.

5658 THOMAS GREENSLADE

A record of his birth has not been found. No record of his parents exists. There are parents listed in many on-line genealogies, but there is no evidence that any of these are correct. It would appear some genealogies were put together based upon the fact that two people had the same surname and therefore must be related. And then these genealogies were repeated and repeated on the internet. James Avery married Joanna Greenslade of Boston on 10 Nov 1643. This has caused many to assume that Thomas and Joanna were brother and sister. Perhaps, they are, but there is absolutely no evidence to connect the two.

There is no record of his marriage to Ann.

Thomas came over on the Margery in 1642 or 1643 (1). The Ilfracombe, Devon reference, as appears online, seems to be quite disputed. From what I gather, Greenslade was a common name in Devon and the name Thomas Greenslade does appear in records there, but there is no evidence that it is the same person. The year of birth is in dispute also, there is no authoritative reference to confirm it. Some of the dates given may relate to a Greenslade in Devon. I can't find any pertinent Devon records online. But I did find the name Greenslade in some neighboring Somerset records.

He is listed as a witness on deeds in Falmouth, Maine 1648, 1658 and 1651 (1). He had a foreclosure suit filed against him in Casco, Maine in 1667 (1).

Thomas Greenslad was a signer on a petition dated 4 July 1663 in the towns of Scarborough, Falmouth, Black Point and Casco, Maine (2).

The earliest records for Thomas in Salem, Massachusetts were in 1673, where there are mentions in court records:

1. Thomas Greenslade, for breach of the Sabbath was admonished (this may refer to his son, Thomas) (4)
2. Sara Greenslade, for suspicion of stealing and lying, was fined twice. (4)(Sara is possibly a previously unknown daughter of Thomas; there exists no other known record of her)
3. Goodman Grinslate received 5 quintals of fish from William Balkwell. (4)

There are no known records in Maine that reference Thomas's wife. It is assumed that the children were born in Maine, but no actual records are known to exist other than Noyes who lists the son Thomas as being born 1652 in Casco. (1)

References for Greenslade in the early years are Joanna Greenslade marrying Captain James Avery in 1644. The 1937 book "Twelve Generations in America" by Brookfield lists Joanna Greenslade as the daughter of Thomas Greenslade. Some sites I have looked at mention Joanna as a possible sister to Thomas. But two Avery books I looked at one 1893 and one 1926 only mention Thomas Greenslade as a possible relative, only because he has the same surname. "The Groton Avery Clan" by E, Avery 1912 mentions Thomas and also references Hotton's "List of Early Emigrants" who cites "Samuel Greenslide aged 27 and Barbary his wife aged 35, with 2 children, Mary and Barbara. Came over in 1637. A weaver from Norwich". The only reason for the mentions is again the same surname; there is no claim of relation, other than "possible relation". Another book "Some Colonial Families" by Roberts 1926 also mentions an Edward Greenslade of Boston. Therefore in addition to our Thomas, there were at least 3 other Greenslades/Greenslides in the colonies in those early years. It would not seem likely that they could all be of the same family.

Thomas died in July 1674 in Salem, Mass (3)without a will. He had more debts than assets therefore probate did not list any heirs.
Administration upon the estate of Thomas Greenslett, intestate, was
granted Mar. 27, 1677, to Ann Greenslett, who was to pay the debts as
far as the inventory, which was 3li, 16s. 2d. would allow.
Ipswich Quarterly Court Records, vol. 5, page 287.

Inventory of the estate of Thomas Greenslet taken Mar. 21, 1676-7 by
Edmund Batter and John Massey: one flocke bed & apertances, 1li., 2 old
Chests with raggs, 6s.; a lampe, ticke & Hauke, 4s., table, 2 wheels &
Chairs, 10s. 6d.; one Irone pott, 6 s. 8 d.; wood & old bedsteed, 7s.;
potts, 2s.; 2 swine, 1li.; total 3li. 16s. 2d. The debts many & not
knowne.
Attested in Ipswich court Mar. 27, 1677 by An Greenslet administratix of
the estate of her late husband Thomas Greenslet.
Essex County Probate Files, Docket 11,851.

They only listing of his children is in the will of Jacob Pudeator who mentioned the 5 step-children to whom he left 5 pounds each:
to leave to "John Greenslit and to the other fore of my wife's children viz., Thomas, Ruth, Samuel, and James Greenslit 5 pounds each."

The court records do list that 5 pounds was paid to Ruth Bridges alias Greenslate, although the will lists her as Ruth Greenslit.
Widow Ann (Greensleet) Pudeator was executed for witch-
craft 1692 at Salem; and Dec. 10, 1694, an inventory of the est.
was presented and admn granted Mr Philip English, attorney
for Grace Pudeater, Legatee [Essex P. R., Vol. 303, p. 198;
Case 22909].

James Greensleet starts action against the estate but lets
it fall, and Ruth Greenslate alias Bridges receives her legacy
of £5 from the estate of her step-father, Jacob Pudeator.

Re: EDWARD GREENSLADE, JOANNA GREENSLADE STORY - IT'S SPECULATION

Here are my feelings on the "father Edward, sister Joanna" story:
This has been passed around (without any documentation) for maybe 20
years. It's on a few old Temple Ordinance sheets and pops up on more
current group sheets using those oldies as sources. I am guessing that
it started with an assumption by researchers years ago that the Joanna
Greenslade who belonged to the Boston Church and who married John Avery
of Gloucester was Thomas Greenslade's sister. (Their assumption: same
last name, same time period, must be related.)

Absolutely no documentation has surfaced to my knowledge that there was
any relationship between Thomas Greenslade of Casco Bay, Maine, and
Joanna of Boston/Gloucester/and CT. While it is very possible that
Edward Greenslade was Joanna's father, long ago some researcher took a
big leap to assume Thomas and Joanna must be siblings, thus you'll see
an Edward Greenslade listed as being Joanna's father, and thus also
Thomas' father. So, please set this story aside as "speculation" until
some kind of documentation surfaces.

5659 Thomas Stanley was baptized 12 Apr 1601 in Tenterden, Kent, England, the child of Robert Stanley and Ruth Garfield.

He married Bennet Tritton (dau of Daniel Tritton and Alice Goldhatch) 3 Aug 1630 in Ashford, Kent, England.

The Stanley family website at the following address has much information on the Stanley Family:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~stanfam/stanfam.htm The following from that website is discussing Thomas, Timothy and John, 3 children of Robert Stanley.

The Mayflower Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock in 1620 A.D. These particular Stanley families were Puritans. They emigrated from England for religious freedom, and arrived in Boston in May, 1634, just 14 years after the Pilgrims. They traveled on a ship named the "Elizabeth & Dorcas". John Stanley died during the voyage. Upon their arrival in Boston, the two remaining brothers, Timothy and Thomas, with the two remaining children of the deceased John Stanley, went with their fellow voyagers to make their homes in "Newe Town", now Cambridge. John's daughter, Ruth, was assigned to the care of her uncle Timothy, while John's son, also named John, was cared for by his uncle Thomas.

The younger John, Timothy, and Thomas Stanley, were among the founders of Hartford, CT., and are therefore known as the "Hartford" Stanley Families. Descendants of these three Stanley's have been in this country for nearly 400 years.

From Gary Boyd Roberts columns we know that the following are descendants of Thomas Stanley and Bennet Tritton:
Shirley Temple, Julia Tyler Gardiner, and the Wright brothers.

5660 Thomas, a fisherman in York, Maine purchased land in July 1684. He sold land in Dec 1685 in York. In 1698 he sold 11 acres in Burnt Plain, York, Maine. In Sept 1700 he acknowledged the deed in Ipswich. In 1705 Thomas "a mariner of Ipswich" and Elizabeth bought land in Glouchester. In 1715 he again acknowledged the 1685 deed, this time in Gloucester. After 1723 according to church records he removed from the church in Gloucester to the church in Attleboro.

The will of Thomas Wise 'of Attleboro' lists male children of Benjamin, John (who is deceased) and Joseph. Gloucester and Attleboro vital records of this era identify 3 other Wise familes in the area, Benjamin, John & Joseph. Benjamin ties conclusively, as Benjamin was married in Gloucester and after 1723 was having children in Attleboro and was named executor of the will. John ties in less conclusively. The will mentions 'children of deceased son John'; whereas John of Gloucester is listed as dying at sea in 1716 from Gloucester vital records. And Joseph even less evidence. The circumstantial evidence that Thomas is the father of Joseph is that, they lived in the same area, the will of Thomas shows a son named Joseph, there are no vital records in Gloucester or Attleboro showing another Joseph, and Joseph is of an appropriate age to be a son of Thomas.

Notes from Attleboro Vital Records:
The only Wise listings are for children of Benjamin Wise and Prudence Gott. 10 children are listed. Apparently Benjamin moved to Attleboro after 1722 when Mary was born in Gloucester. The writer of the 1891 book stated that Thomas was removed to Attleboro after 1723. This is consistent with Benjamin being the son of Thomas and following him to Attleboro, but no vital records for Thomas are found in Attleboro.

Numerous on-line trees give a birth year of 1675. But that is an obvious mixup with a Thomas born in Virginia. This Thomas who was buying real estate in 1684 had to be born before 1675 (as he would not have been of legal age, then). We do not know how long before or where born.

Text: HERMAN SNEAR

Herman Snear was born in Germany 3 July 1836 and came to this country in 1857, settling in Erie, PA. In 1861 he was married to Miss Coney NITZEL who was also a native of Germany. Their married life extended over a period of 39 years, the wife dying in Oct 1900. In1867 they moved to Michigan, settling in Tuscola Co, where theyresided until 1883 when they came to Wise, Isabella Co, where the ylived until the death summons came. To them were born ten children,six boys and four girls. Three of the boys, Charlie, Joseph and John, diedbefore the parents. There still survive three sons, George, William and Frank, who reside in Wise. All the daughters are still living: Mrs. Wm.LEOSH and Mrs. James HERSEY of Wise, Mrs. Len WOOD or Gilmore,and Mrs. Wm. JOHNSON of Farwell.
Mr. SNEAR was a member of the GAR, having volunteered for his adopted country in 1861 and followed the flag for three years.
Since the death of his wife, he had resided with his son George. On Sunday last he seemed in his usual health and had spent part of the dayvisiting at another son's. When he returned home he lay down uponthe bed and was there found dead, the end coming evidently without a struggle.
The funeral was held at the ME Church in Loomis, services being conducted by Rev. PARSONS of Coleman, and interment in cemetery atLoomis. The very large attendance at the funeral attested the worth of the deceased and the high esteem in which he was held.Date: 23 Nov 2002

5677 Transcription of will of Johannes Degroot 18 Nov 1788:
No. 15
In the name of God, Amen. I Johannes DeGroot of the County of Richmond and State of New York, house carpenter, having attained to a good old age, insomuch, that according to the usual course of Nature it is reasonable to conclude that my departure from this transitory state of existence is not far distant, and conceiving it to be a prudent and wise part, to order and adjust my worldly concerns, before the strings of life are broken, and while blessed with the full and unimpaired enjoyment and exercise of my mental faculties, I therefore, in compliance with the calls of reason, and in obedience to the dictates of conscience, upon the fullest deliberation, make my last will and testament, in manner and form following. Principally it is my earnest desire to resign my spirit into the hands of the God who created me, in a reliance on his Mercies, and the meritorious sufferings of my exalted Saviour Jesus Christ, that it, being released from its earthly tabernacle may be wafted into the glorious presence and fruition of my Heavenly Father. The interment of my body I submit to the prudent management of my grandson, Garret DeGroot; requesting that no superfluous expences attend it; but that my Funeral be conducted in a decent and respectable manner, and the modern customs and rites of the Place be observed. My estate, real and personal, I give, bequeath, and dispose of in the following manner. Imprimis, I give and bequeath unto my son, Peter DeGroot, his heirs and assigns, all my carpenter's tools and wearing apparel, of what nature and kind soever, of which I shall die possessed, to the only proper use, benefit, and behoof of my said son Peter, his heirs and assignes for ever. Item! It is my will, and do hereby order and direct, that my said son Peter DeGroot, and his family shall occupy, possess and enjoy, for a limited time, the dwelling house which I built, on the declivity of the Bank, opposite to the Barn, in which he at present resides, together with the garden spot in front of it, without the set, hindrance or molestation of any of the heirs to my estate, that is to say, until William and Garret DeGroot,the sons of my grandson Garret DeGroot, shall both have attained to the age of twenty one years, or, in case of either dying, then only during the (undecipherable) of the survivor, and that during the term above mentioned (undecipherable) the said Peter DeGroot shall be obligated to keep the said dwelling house in good tenantable repair, and at the expiration of the said term to surrender the possession of the said house and privileges accompanying it, into the hands of the heirs thereof. Item. I give and devise unto William DeGroot, and Garret DeGroot, sons of my grandson Garret DeGroot, when they both shall have attained to the age of twenty one years, the above mentioned dwelling house, situate on the declivity of the bank, with its appurtenances together with the garden spot in front thereof, as it is now enclosed, to be to the only proper use, benefit and behoof of them, the said William and Garret DeGroot, their and each of their heirs and assigns forever, but in case either of my said great grand children above mentioned, should die under age, and without lawful issue, the share of the defunct to belong to the survivor and should it so happen that neither should live to the years of maturity, the property above devised to them, shall be at the full and free disposal of their father, garret DeGroot. Item! All the residue of my lands, tenements, improvements, hereditaments and appurtenances, whatsoever and wheresoever, comprehending therein all my lands situate in the Manor of Castleton amounting to about twenty two acres, a lot of salt meadow lying on the western shore of Staten Island computed to be twelve acres, and the farm or plantation which I now occupy, situate on the North side of Staten Island and fronting the river Kill Van Kull, I give, grant and devise to my said grandson Garret DeGroot, to him, his heirs and assigns forever. Item! I also give and bequeath to my said grandson, my Negro Man Thomas, and his Wife Sarah, my sorrel mare, all my farming utensils and household and kitchen furniture, of what nature or kind soever, and the whole residue and remainder of my personal estate, after the former bequests shall have been fulfilled. Item! I do will, order and direct that my said grandson Garret DeGroot, in consideration of the foregoing bequests, to pay or cause to be paid, unto my descendants underneath named, the full sum of four hundred pounds current money of New York, within the time, and in the manner hereafter directed. Previous to the payment of any part of the above monies to the legatees by my said grandson, Garret DeGroot, a bond given by me to Wilhelmus Vreeland, for the faithful payment of fifty pounds, shall be discharged and deducted from the said sum of four hundred pounds. Item! I do further will, order and direct that my said grandson, Garret DeGroot shall, in the first place, payments to my grandson, John Cruser, and grand daughter Lana Mersereau, the sum of fifty pounds each, current money of New York, which in case of either's decease shall be equally divided among their children. Item! The monies which shall then be left, after the payment of the above legacies and the discharge of the said bond, I do will, order and direct, my said grandson Garret DeGroot to pay to and divide equally among the other children of my sons Peter DeGroot and Robert DeGroot, or the survivors of them, share and share alike, and that my said grandson Garret DeGroot shall be allowed a term of five full years, after my decease, to pay the whole, or any of the legacies above bequeathed. Finally, I do hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my loving grandson, Garret DeGroot and John Cruser, to be the executors of this, my last will and testament, charging them to see the same, faithfully performed, according to my true intent and meaning; ratifying, allowing and confirming this to be my last will and testament. In Witness Whereof, I the said testator, haveherunto set my hand and seal this eighteenth day of November, in the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred and eighty eight, and in the thirteenth year of the Independence of the United States of America. Johannes X DeGroot. Signed, sealed, published and declared by the said Johannes DeGroot, as his last will and testament, in presence of us. Nathaniel Johnson, Elizabeth Bush, Abr(aham) Bancker. Richmond County (undecipherable) Be it remembered, that on the sixth day of May, in the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred and ninety, personally came and appeared before me Adrian Bancker, Surrogate of the said County, Elizabeth Bush, Spinster, and Abraham Bancker, Esq., two of the sitnesses of the preceding will of Johannis (sic) DeGroot, who being duly sworn, on their oaths declared, that they did see Johannis (sic) DeGroot sign and seal the preceding instrument, purporting to be the will of the said Johannis DeGroot, bearing date the eighteenth day of November in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and eighty eight, and heard him publish an declare the same as his last will and testament; that at the same time thereof, he, the said Johannis DeGroot, was of sound, disposing mind and memory to the best of the knowledge and belief of them, the deponents, and that Nathaniel Johnson, together with the deponents, subscribed the said will as witnesses thereto, in the testator's presence.

5694 Two books contain much information about the Heyden line and early Windsor, Connecticut families in general. They are the 1888 book “Records of the Connecticut Line of the Hayden Family” by Jabez Haskell Hayden and the 1891 book “The History and Genealogies of Ancient Windsor Connecticut 1635-1891” by Henry Stiles.

BIRTH:
12 Oct 1772 in Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut to “John and Anne Heydon”, per the Barbour Collection of Connecticut Vital Records. Both books list Anna Haydon being born Nov 1772 to John Haydon and Anna Trumbull. It should be noted that both books were published well before the Barbour collection of Connecticut Vital Records was published. The authors did not have this source available to them, thus they did not have an exact date of birth.

MARRIAGE:
By 1798 to Israel Osborn. Both books list Anna’s marriage to “Israel Osborn of E Windsor” without giving a date. We estimate 1797 as the marriage year based upon the birth of their first child in 1798, although there is an unreferenced IGI entry which lists 1793 as the marriage date. (IGI records with only a year are usually unreliable, as the lack of a specific date indicates that the information probably did not come from a church, governmental or other marriage document).

CENSUS RECORDS:
1800 Federal. Israel Osbourn appears in East Windsor on page 4 of 13 in East Windsor.
The ages and number of household members and who they possibly are:
Males 26-44: 1 Israel 27
Males 16-25: 1 ??
Males less than 10: 2 Israel Hayden 2 and Charles a few months
Females 16-25: 1 Anna Hayden 28

1810 Federal. Unable to find Israel in East Windsor.
For comparison to 1800 the 1810 East Windsor Census has 12 pages and 5 Osborn households, while the 1810 Windsor census has 35 pages and 10 Osborn households.

1820 Federal: We find Israel Osborn in Brighton, Ontario County, New York. (Monroe County is not formed until 1821 from parts of Ontario and Genesee County).
The ages and number of household members and who they possibly are:
Males 10-15: 1 Nathaniel 15
Males 16-18: 1 Wm E 18
Males 16-25: 3 Israel Hayden 22 , Charles 20 and Wm E 18 (Wm E is in 2 categories, this seems to be the way the census is constructed. The category numbers total to 11, but the people in the household total to 10)
Males 45+:1 Israel 47
Females 0-10: 2 Laura 8, Ursula 10
Females 10-15: 1 Mary 17
Females 26-44: 2 Anna 48 and Samantha Hayden 38

1830 Federal Census. Unable to find Israel Osborn.

1840 Federal Census. We find Israel Osbron in Henrietta, Monroe, New York
The ages and number of household members and who they possibly are:
Males 30-39: 2 Israel Hayden 42 and Charles 40
Males 60-69: 1 Israel 67
Females 20-29: 1 Laura 28
Females 30-39: 1 Samantha Hayden 58 ??
(Anna died 1843)

DEATH:
1843 in Henrietta, Monroe, New York per the inscription on her gravestone.

BURIAL:
