Nancee Seifert Would you please send me information on the John Gaby family -and the children. Are you indicating that he is a nephew of Salome (son of Martin Gaby JR) - and about her age? I have him born about 1781 -which is the same year of Salome's birth (25 May 1781 Oley, Berks Co PA) Salome Gaby (wife of Daniel Fiant) was the youngest daughter of Elder Martin Gaby of the Oley Church. In 1802, right after their marriage, they moved to "Fiants Ford", over the Whitewater River, near Yankeetown, in Union Co IN (then Indiana Territory - outside of the Gore - or in squatter country). About 1834 they moved west into Fayette County, Waterloo twp, where the New Bethel Church was established (a later building on their property), and were buried on the back of their farm. Sometime about 1813, a John Gaby, wife Hannah (born c1789), is found living adjacent them. I find him listed in the 1820 census. It lists one son and seven daughters. I have only the names of Susannah (1802-1883) who married 1825, Richard Strong MD, Lydia (c1804-) who married 1821, David Stevenson, and Rachel (c1808-) who married 1829, Henry Hubbard. All these are in Fayette County IN - adjacent to the Fiants. The only child I have incomplete information on is Susannah- with twelve children (I found nothing on any other children) . I have been to the Strong homestead property in Fayette Co. Supposedly they were buried on family farm "Strong Cemetery", but recently I found a stone to a Richard Strong at the Bethel Baptist Church Cemetery, south of Springersville - several miles south of their farm. It was cold/snowy -and I did not record any information from the latter stone (am going back when possible). Since Henry Hubbard was a prominent historical figure in the Whiskey Rebellion in Somerset County PA - who is this Henry Hubbard? and where did he go after he got married? - he did not remain in Fayette County -according to the informations I looked at. These are all part of the early Four Mile Church - and I am attempting to complete information on the church families.
