I am the gr-grandson of James Alfred Jackson b. 1852 in Springfield,
Otsego County son of Leonard James Jackson & Adaline Stockin. Adeline
was the Dau of Otis & Prudence who were the parents of at least 12
children. James would marry Mary Carey b. 1851 Dau of Henry & Elizabeth
Moore Carey/Cary of Cherry Valley, NY in 1869. James & Mary owned the
Jackson Ice Company at lakefront at the end of Bay/Nelson street which
is now on  land owned by the Otesago Hotel. James would remarry after
the death of Mary to Mary Bice of Pierstown. I would be interested in
hearing from any descenents/ members of the Jackson; Carey/Cary;
Stockin/Stocking families.

We are looking for any information that anyone might have about these people.  
William was born in the town of Butternuts, Gilbertsville, Otsego County 1850 
son of William and Ann Dean Porter. William and Ann came to this country from 
England around 1849-1850 He later moved to Kemptville, Ontario Canada and married 
JuliaAnn Fawcett.  Cencus records show Julia living with the Thomas Freer family, 
as a servant,  who were neighbors of William and Ann.  Date of marriage and Julia's 
death are unknown.  William passed away in April 1915 and is buried in Kemptville 
Public Cemetery.  He remarried Annie Emily Beach on September 21, 1896 in Kemptville 
Canada.  We have no information after 1915.  We know that William and Julia had 
the following children, all born in Kemptville Canada and that they did not stay 
there through adulthood


1. Mary Charlotte (Rosena) Porter was born October 15, 1873 and married John 
Edward Hasserd on January 19, 1898

2. Carrie Belle Porter (Caroline) born April 23, 1875.  According to William's 
obit she was in Burwick IL in 1915

3. William Thomas James Francis (Frank) Porter born September 8, 1879, married 
Mary Mrytle Porter and after her death married Lena Foster.  Frank was my grandfather

4. Blanche Porter born February 12, 1885 married Edward Doolittle. The 1910 Census 
shows them living in the Utica/Rome area with sons Cecil and Harold.  Cecil later 
lived with Thomas and census shows Harold being adopted, so we believe that both 
Blanche and Edward passed away between 1910 and 1920. 


If anyone has any information on our family we would love to hear from you. 

 
Thanks for your help

Seeking parents of JOHN JORDAN born 6 Mar 1764 where I know not.  He died 
26 Jan 1850 Pike, Wyoming Co, NY, but buried in family lot in Friendship, 
Allegany Co., NY.


He married 15 Sep 1785 probably in or near Goshen, Orange Co., NY Julia 
SWARTOUT born 18 Nov 1769 daughter of Jacobus SWARTOUT who before and 
during the Revolution lived in Sugar Loaf which is now in town of Chester, 
Orange Co., NY but then in town of Warwick, Orange Co., NY.


Following children born to John and Julia: 
Michael 1786 in Orange Co; 
William 1788; 
Jesse 1790;
James 1791; 
hn 1792; 
Andrew; 1795;
Betsey 1797; 
Isaiah 1799;
Sally (Patty) 1801;
JACOB 1803; 
Julia Margaret 1805;
Unnamed son 1807 at which time Julia probably died because she does not 
appear in 1810 census.


John/Julia do not appear in the 1790 census of NYS in their own 
home with two sons nor have I found them in PA, NJ or any N.E. state. 

 
By 1800, JORDAN family residing in Cherry Valley, Otsego Co., NY.  
From there, Michael, William and Jesse settled in and died in Steuben Co.  
James and John settled town of Cuba, Allegany Co., NY; Isaiah, after living 
with his brother, Michael in Steuben Co., migrated on to Allegany Co and he 
and brothers Andrew and JACOB settled in town of Wirt of Allegany Co., NY.


Betsey (Elizabeth) Jordan married Sebastion WELLER and lived in Canajoharie,
Montgomery Co., NY.  Sally married John DYGERT and lived in Montgomery Co,
NY. Julia Margaret married Charles PHELPS, migrated to Pike, Wyoming Co. and
it was at her home that JOHN died in 1850.


In 1840, JOHN JORDAN is still residing at Cherry Valley but by 1848 has migrated
to town of Wirt and because he died before 1850 census was taken, it has been
family tradition that he lived with his son, JACOB, but his will probate states he
died at home of his daughter in Wyoming Co.  


ANY help would be appreciate on these above mentioned families....

JENNINGS

Would like to talk to anyone having any JENNINGS
family in their database from Suffolk Co., NY.  Believe my
Joannah JENNINGS may have come from the JENNINGS who lived on
L.I. but cannot prove it.  She was born 30 Dec 1792 and probably married
in Otsego Co., NY on 5 Oct 1815 to Benjamin KINGSBURY.
She died 30 Mar 1872 Rushford, Allegany Co., NY.  Anxious to
hear from you if you have JENNINGS in database.  She had a
sister Hannah who attested to her marriage to Benjamin when
Joannah applied for widow's pension (War of 1812).

JOHNSON

Charles M. JOHNSON b. May 1, 1830 d. Dec. 22, 1908 - my great
great grandfather, is listed on 1855 - 1875 Town of Burlington,
Otsego Co., NY census as having been born in Madison Co., NY.
He was raised from early childhood by Lewis & Nancy SWINNEY, who
first appear, without Charles in their household, on the 1830
census of Brookfield, Madison Co., NY.  This census also lists
Tylor JOHNSON as the only household of this surname to contain
male children under the age of 5 yrs. in Brookfield. It is
beleived that Charles attended school in Edmeston, Otsego Co.,
NY circa 1840-1850 possibly under the name of Charles SWINNEY
and first used the name JOHNSON prior to his marriage to Betsey
R. ARNOLD abt. 1860 in Burlington, NY where they resided. Their
son Frank A. JOHNSON was born here in 1860 and in his adulthood
became principle of Laurel Ave. School #10 in Binghamton, NY
where Charles moved and died after the death of his wife Betsey.
