Leslie ChapmanDescendants of Joel Melvin
Generation No. 1
1. JOEL5 MELVIN (JONATHAN4, JONATHAN3, JONATHAN2, JOHN1)1,2,3 was born 03 April 1802 in Phelps, Ontario Co., New York4, and died 08 March 18315. He married ELIZABETH N. WISNER6 24 January 1822 in Goshen, Orange Co., New York7, daughter of JAMES WISNER and ELIZABETH CARPENTER. She was born 30 December 1803 in Gerry, Chautaqua Co., NY8, and died 06 May 1896 in Tacoma, Pierce Co., Washington9,10,11.
Notes for JOEL MELVIN: I may have several errors in this family page, one I originally had him in as Joel Henry Melvin and I believe this was a result of confusing him with his son Joel Henry whom we find death info on from Michigan online death index. I also have a death date unattributed which conflicts with DeCoursey and Nieder.
Melvin Family Bible lists Milan Morell Melvin son of Joel H. Melvin and Eliza R. Melvin born at Gerry, Chautauqua Co., New York
Notes for ELIZABETH N. WISNER: Melvin 244090a gives place of death as Tacoma, Washington but I suspect this might be confusion with other aspects of the family history.
Goosens Child No. 3 ancestors gives middle name Runyon.
