More info: Ebenezer Covey b. 30 July 1790 in Rensselaer Co., NY; d. 13 May 1871 at Falls Twp., Wyoming Co; m. 22 Nov 1812 Lydia Elizabeth Ross b. 30 Nov 1793 at Kingston, Luzerne Co; d. 2 Apr 1858 at Falls Twp; d/o William Ross and Betsey Osborn. They [Ebenezer and Lydia] are bur. at Fairview Cem. in Overfield Twp. More info: Elisha Covey Jr b. 25 Apr 1770; probably d. before 1800; m.

I have these names as the children of Ebenezer Covey and Lydia Ross of Luzerne and Wyoming Co's PA: Clarissa, Almeron/Almerson, Ebenezer, William, Vincent, Lewis, Mary Ann, Delight, and Elizabeth. {This is not necessarily in the order of their birth} Hope some of this info helps others and we can do some exchanging of facts regarding this Covey line in PA.
