  • Notes 
    • Appears in 1840 census living next to Varnis Maxfield in Groveland Twp. Varnis & Hiram appear in legal notice in 1837 New York Newspaper, as "residents of Michigan". There ages, both born in New Hampshire, both moving from New York to Michigan at about the same time, living next to each other in Michigan, both marrying females last name of Irish, lends credence to their being closely related, probably brothers.

      Hiram has child born in New York in 1833 and is in Michigan by 1837.

      Also on the 1840 census D (David) Irish and L (Liberty) Irish appear as the two households just prior to the Hiram and Varnis households.
