I am trying to trace my DUNBAR line and would like
to share with others who are researching that
surname. So far I have my line back to
Jesse W. DUNBAR (b 1833 d aft 1880) of Otsego
County (near Laurens). There seems to have been
numerous DUNBARs in that area and a few were named
Jesse. My Jesse may have been a horse trainer
that lived outside Laurens.
I'm trying to tie census, cemetery, and other records
all together but I've yet to link my Jesse to the
older DUNBARs found in the county. If you have any
connection to the DUNBARs in this area (or elsewhere)
I would like to hear from you! I'll be happy to pass
on the little I've learned so far.

CLAYTON
Polly Ann (unknown) was born in Otsego County between 1810-1815.
Around 1835, she married John CLAYTON (b.1803 Duanesburg, Schenectady
County, NY). They remained in Otsego County while their first three
children were born.
These offspring were: Sally (b.1837), Eliza (b.1839) and Julia Ann
(b.1841).
The young family moved to Charleston, Montgomery County, NY about
1842. There, between 1843 and 1859, six more children were born. Polly
Ann died 3 Nov 1873. She was buried with John in a family plot in
Charleston.
John was probably the son of Peter and Rachel ABBY CLAYTON of
Duanesburg. If so, his sister would have been Abigail CLAYTON WELLS,
wife
of Charleston's Major Robert WELLS. Peter CLAYTON was a veteran of
many
battles while with the Pennsylvania 10th Regiment (1777-1780) during the
Revolutionary War.
I would like to know he surname of Polly Ann, and anything that is
known about her family.
Please contact Bob Clayton, a fan of Otsego Lake.
