  1. 2.  Anna HaydenAnna Hayden Descendancy chart to this point (1.John1) was born on 12 Oct 1772 in Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut, USA; died in 1843 in Monroe, New York, USA; was buried in 1843 in Henrietta, Monroe, New York, USA.

    Other Events:

    • Name: Anne Heydon
    • Reference Number: 5869
    • Birth: Nov 1772, Connecticut, USA

    Notes:

    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.

    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.

    Males 60-69: 1 Israel 67
    Females 20-29: 1 Laura 28
    Females 30-39: 1 Samantha Hayden 58 ??
    (Anna died 1843)

    Notes:

    According to family tradition William E was an inventor who had a patent for an improvement to the breech-loading cannon. Unable to sell or otherwise make money off his patent in the United States he traveled to Prussia and sold his idea for an unknown sum of money to Krupp Manufacturing, the well-known arms manufacturer in Germany. It is said that due to the cold weather, Mr. Krupp gave William E a heavy winter coat with gold buttons. After he returned to the United States, his brother Thomas stole his gold buttons! (names may have been changed in the retelling, we do not show a bother named Thomas).

    BIRTH:
    Based on the Federal and State Census records William E Osborne was born 1801 to 1803 in Connecticut. (The handwriting on the 1865 New York State Census which could be Canada is obviously an error). His father Israel Osborne was living in East Windsor, Connecticut from 1796 or earlier to at least 1811 based on East Windsor Real Estate records). An 1855 passport record states that is was 50 years old and born in East Windsor, Connecticut (which would imply born 1805).

    MARRIAGE:
    First wife- Unknown. We only know there is a first wife by the 1865 New York State Census where he states he was married 2 times.
    Second wife- Ann Eliza Unknown. Marriage date by 1855 for birth of William and certainly by 1859 (based on William E and Ann E signing off on a real estate deed in connection with his fathers estate). Her maiden name may be McPherson. Her son in law listed Eliza McPherson as his first wife (who passed away) on a naval pension document. His first wife was Lida Osborne. Perhaps Eliza was Lida’s correct name. Perhaps Mcpherson was her mother’s name at the time Lida was born. Which could indicate that Ann Eliza already had Lida before she married William E. (according to the New York State Census Ann Eliza was on her first marriage and William his second.) Also, on the 1865 New York State Census, a sister Emeline Mcfeeson (McPherson??) is living in the Osborne household. Emeline being 39 years younger than William and 14 years younger than Ann Eliza was probably the sister of Ann Eliza, not William.

    DEATH: after 1878.
    1878 is the last entry we find for William Osborne in the Rochester City Directory. We can find no record of William E Osborne after this date.

    1880 Federal Census. We are unable to locate William E Osborne on this census.

    CHILDREN:
    Any children with his unknown first wife are unknown.
    Lida b. 1843 may have been the child of Ann Eliza before they married.
    William b. 1855 was probably the child of William E (in particular the middle name of Hayden would seem to indicate he was named by Israel Osborn (after Israel’s mother Anna Hayden) and his second wife.
    The 1865 census listed that Ann Eliza who was on her first marriage had 4 children. Considering the 25 year age difference between William E and Ann E, the 4 children may have been William’s children or a combination of William’s and Ann’s children.
    It is therefore a possibility that William had two or three children that we do not know about.
    The theory that William H and Lida are step-siblings helps us make sense of the marriage of William H’s daughter (Lillian) to Lida’s son (Edgar). A fufirst cousin marriage does not seem correct of people not living in a rural and/or isolated area. Also, the 25 year age difference makes it less likely that a 40 year old William married a 15 year old, which would be necessary for Lida to be his daughter.

    OTHER NOTES:
    It should also be noted that William E's grandparents John Hayden and Anna Trumbull were first cousins. Also, his great grandparents Ammi Trumbull and Sabra Gaylor were 2nd cousins.

    Notes:

    ANN ELIZA (OSBORNE) UNKNOWN

    BIRTH:
    Abt 1827 in Kings, New York -per census records 1865, 1870, 1875.

    PARENTS:
    Unknown.
    Father’s name may be McPherson. See reasoning below).

    MARRIAGE:
    William E Osborne.
    Marriage date by 1855 for birth of William and certainly by 1859 (based on William E and Ann E signing off on a real estate deed in connection with his father’s estate). Her maiden name may be McPherson. Her son in law, Cornelius Melvin, listed Eliza McPherson as his first wife (who passed away) on a naval pension document. On a different document he listed his first wife as Lida Osborn. Perhaps Eliza was Lida’s correct name. Perhaps Mcpherson was her mother’s name at this time Lida was born. Which could indicate that Ann Eliza already had Lida before she married William E. (according to the New York State Census Ann Eliza was on her first marriage and William his second.) Also, on the 1865 New York State Census, a sister Emeline Mcfeeson (McPherson??) is living in the Osborne household. Emeline being 39 years younger than William and 14 years younger than Ann Eliza was probably the sister of Ann Eliza, not William.

    Note about Cornelius Melvin: He seems to be loose with the names. He served two enlistments in the Navy as Cornelius H Melvin and two enlistments as Cornelius Higgins. His given reason, was because his mother did not want him to go back in, he signed up under a different name. We suspect it may be because he had a criminal record. He states that Higgens was his mother’s maiden name. But on all of the marriage records we have, he does not give a mother’s maiden name of Higgens!

    CENSUS RECORDS:
    We cannot identify Ann Eliza in any census record prior to 1865.

    REAL ESTATE:
    We have found no real estate transactions in the name of Wm E Osborn or his wife Ann Eliza, but she does appear in connection with the settlement of the estate of her husband’s father.
    Deed filed 5 Sep 1859 in Monroe County, New York liber 172 p 118 in connection with the estate of Israel osborn, lists the following as his heirs at law:
    William E Osborn and wife Ann Eliza Osborn
    Nathaniel W Osborn and his wife Roxy S Osborn

    Franklin Leggett and wife Susan M Leggett (He is son of the deceased Mary Osborn)
    Charles I Osborn

    NEWSPAPERS:
    Obituary for her daughter Lida.
    The Rochester Union Advertiser 4 May 1878
    In this city, Friday afternoon, May ??, 18??(very fuzzy), Lida C Melvin, wife of Cornelius H Melvin, and daughter of William E and Ann Eliza Osborne, aged 34 years, 7 months and ? days.

    DEATH:
    Unknown

    BURIAL:
    Unknown

    CHILDREN:
    Lida b. 1843 may have been the child of Ann Eliza before she married William E Osborne.
    William b. 1855 was probably the child of William E (in particular the middle name of Hayden would seem to indicate he was named by Israel Osborn, after Israel’s mother Anna Hayden) and Lida.
    The 1865 census listed that Ann Eliza who was on her first marriage had 4 children. Considering the 25 year age difference between William E and Ann E, the 4 children may have been William’s children or a combination of William’s and Ann’s children.
    It is therefore a possibility that William had two or three children that we do not know about.
    The theory that William H and Lida have different biological parents helps us make sense of the marriage of William H’s daughter (Lillian) to Lida’s son (Edgar). A first cousin marriage does not seem correct of people not living in a rural and/or isolated area. Also, the 25 year age difference makes it less likely that a 40 year old William married a 15 year old, which would be necessary for Lida to be his daughter.


    Buried:
    Mt Hope Cemetery

    Lida married Cornelius Higgins Melvin on 22 Oct 1867 in Rochester, Monroe, New York, USA. Cornelius (son of Frank Melvin and Evaline K Burtreag) was born on 1 Jan 1835 in New York, New York, USA; died on 26 Dec 1916. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
