(supposition) There is some evidence he had a son, Elmer J., born there in December 1849.

My Nathan(iel) was born in NY between ~1820. I also have the Lafayette Delamater & the Phil Delamarter references also. To my best guess, my Nathan was the son of Stephen Delamater who resided in Madison County, NY until ~1850. I know that Nathan married Laura Owen 1/1/1840, at the bride's home in Sullivan, Madison County, NY. Nathan, Laura, and at least 2 daughters moved to Auburn, Fond du Lac County, WI ~1847. I am looking to prove Nathan is the son of Stephen Delamater.

The newspaper you'd need to view is the Jackson Citizen Patriot. They also have obits online. Robyn King

I personally have alot of relatives buried there & don't get to Horton often.

Bryan, The Library of Michigan has directories for Jackson as well as other Michigan cities. I don't know how far back the ones from Jackson go. I believe that the Jackson Library has some too. I know that I have seen Jackson directories for the late 1880's but am not sure which library I found them in. It would have been either Library of Michigan or Jackson Library. Pat

I'll give you some notes I acquired and see if you would like more info to see if our family lines cross somewhere. Both of my Elisha Fields were in the Revolution: (ENSIGN ELISHA FIELD Sr: Ensign Elisha Field was born in Sunderland, Massachusetts. He removed, in 1761, to Bennington, Vermont, and was one of the first settlers of that town. ) (ELISHA FIELD Jr: He was one of the burial party after the battle of Bennington, Aug 16, 1777; was also one of the guard placed over the Hessian prisoners in the old Bennington meeting house and over the captured military stores.) Luman was the son of Elisha Jr who moved West. They came west 1836-37, stopping for a short time at Yates, NY., on their way to Knoxville, where they stayed but a short time before going to farm at Center Point, near Galesburg. (History of Sparta Township) Asaph DeLong and Luman Field, from Vermont, and Wm. M. Heath from New York, settled on section 31 in 1836.
