I originally put info on Sarah Evans Pittsley, John Lew's second wife, my gggrandmother. Just for your info I have accumulated data on James F. Green, son of Oliver Green married to Abilgail Pittsley. He lived in Lawrence Township, Brown Co., WI and was married to Sylvia Vose, daughter of Seward and Angeling Phillips Vose. The Vose, Burt and Phillips families all moved out to WI about the same time from NY. They moved back and forth between Brown Co and Crawford Co. The following is what I have collected on James F. Green. I also have also transcribed the S. Lawrence Cemetery and taken photos of all of the gravestones if you would like a copy of James and Sylvia. Did you find out anything on John's second wife Polly Evans Pittsley while you were researching? Like a birth date or marriage date. I believe they were married between 1830 when Sarah Polly's daug. Polly and Phineas Burt were married in Tioga co.in 1829 and when they are found in 1840 census in Cuba, Allegany Co., NY. In 1840 they are neighbors to John's daughter Eliza and her husband David Brock and Phineas Burt and his wife Polly Evans Burt, Sarah Polly's daug. and John's son Sylvester. ********************************* 1880 US Census Census Place District 16, Lawrence, Brown, Wisconsin Family History Library Film 1255418 NA Film Number T9-1418 Page Number 257A James F.
