His first appearance was in Clockville in the 1830's where he was already married and with young children. His wife was Nancy Bellington of Cazenovia, their children were: Edward(b.1836), Henry(b.1838), Peleg Jr.(b. 1842), Catherine(b.1847), Rose and Sarah. Peleg died intestate in Kansas in 1858. So there is no death certificate or will to help. > >I am contacting you because Noreen Haler of the Caswell Surname Association suggested Peleg was a child of Gilbert and Hannah Foster. She has on file only 3 daughters, although the 1810 Census (Sullivan, Madison Co.) lists one male child along with a gaggle of females. As I was turning through my file on Misc. Caswells I came across your newsletter from last May. You mention his daughters and Gilbert b. 1799. This seems to jibe with the census, and so there is no room for poor Peleg. > >Have you in your search found any hint of Peleg? I have concluded he is not the son of either Gilbert Caswell of Sulivan or Daniel Caswell of Cazenovia. I am running out of Caswells in Madison Co. to research. Do you have any hints or suggestions? > >I would appreciate any help > >Heide Lee >Houston TX >lindseyl@flash.net > >
