beginning in 1855. He was first mentioned in the Mayville census of 1850.

mentioned in Letters of Administration of his mother's estate, dated March 1,
1886 as found in the Mayville, NY courthouse records.

area in his latter years.

also said her older brothers and sister were deceased (by 1959).
