Eliz, Thomas, Eliza and at least four of their children went to a Cayuga County New York. Thomas and Eliza died in the small town of Moravia. Their sons Edgar, William and Frederick all enlisted in the Union army during the American Civil War. Edgar died in a prison camp in Charleston SC, William died in the Andersonville GA prison camp and Frederick suffered from dysentery after being in a prison camp and later suffered a head wound. Interestingly Frederick did die in Cleveland in 1893.

The home of my Cogans! <VBG> About Yeoman or Yeomen from wikipedia Yeoman could refer to a free man holding a small landed estate, a minor landowner, a small prosperous farmer (especially from the Elizabethan era to the 17th century), a deputy, assistant, journeyman, or a loyal or faithful servant. Work "performed or rendered in a loyal, valiant, useful, or workmanlike manner", especially work requiring a great deal of effort or labor, such as would be done by a yeoman farmer, came to be described as "yeoman's work".[1] Thus yeomen became associated with hard toil.[2] You also need to know this URL http://www.wiltshirebmd.org.uk/ Wiltshire Death indexes for the years: 1853 Surname Forename(s) Age Sub-District Registers At Reference LEE George 55 Malmesbury West History Centre MW/5/278 Very Very good for the Malmesbury Brokenborough area.
