Le Montage de Famille

1800-1809

The decade beginning 1800 finds some of the known vector families living in Europe, i.e., Page, Garrett, Lindstrom, and Westurlund.

In USA: 

• Keyes:  The Keyes family was in East Bloomfield, Ontario County, New York.
• Shook:  The Shooks were in Pennsylvania, presumably in the Berks and/or Northumberland counties area. Phillip Shook married Mary Lilly. Most of their children, including son Johnathan “Jonas,” were born during this decade, as was Jonas's future wife Annah LaRoche, also born in Pennsylvania.
• Castner:  The Castners were in Morris County, New Jersey. William Castner, future husband of Sarah Welter, was born during this decade.
• Hood:  The Hoods were in Romulus/Fayette, Cayuga County, New York (an area that became part of Seneca County in 1804). James Hood’s father Robert died, and James’ future wife Catharine McNelly, daughter of John and Isabella (Duncan) McNelly, was born in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania.
• Bliss:  The Samuel and Anna (Mason) Bliss family began the decade in Berkshire County, Massachusetts, and then moved to Galway, Saratoga County, New York, where their son Calvin Hall Bliss was born. His future wife Seraph H. Bothwell was also born this decade, at Gilboa, Schoharie County, New York. Later the Bliss family moved to Pownal, Bennington County, Vermont, where the last child was born.
• Shaw:  The Shaw family was in Rhode Island at least early in this decade. John Shaw was born near or at its beginning. He would be the future husband of Clara Ann Hoke of New York.
• Rice:  The Rice family was in Massachusetts, where Paul V. Rice was born. His future wife Sophia Lambertson was born in New York state.
• Barnes:  The Barnes family was in Sharon, Litchfield County, Connecticut. Most of Aaron and Martha’s remaining children were born during this decade, including Thomas. Also born was Thomas’ future wife Sarah Sittser at Berne, Albany County, New York, the daughter of David and Sarah (Mills) Sittser. (Sarah was baptized at the Beaverdam Reformed Church in Berne.) Aaron’s parents died.
• Tuttle:  The Tuttle family was in New York. Daniel Tuttle was born during the early years of this decade as was his future wife Julian Ann, also in New York.
