I have thought since he was born in 1823 maybe Ontario County was larger at that time and then broke off into other counties. His daughter was born in Cameron, Stueben Co., NY. I haven't found if that was part of Ontario co. in 1823. But I looked for a Maple Hill in that area also and never found it there either. > Thank you for your help.
