Hi Sharon, I am a FERRIS family descendant. Some of my ancestors lived in Cayuga Co between about 1812-1820 when they moved to the Savannah/Butler/Galen areas of Wayne Co. Does your book list a Caleb Ferris and wife Judah and their son Leonard and wife Sarah Elizabeth Ryan? It is believed that some of Leonard's children may have been born in the Mentz, Cayuga County area prior and up to 1820 [Nelson, Margaret Sarah and perhaps Leonard, Jr.]. There may also be a Julia Ferris who married a Vaughn Sweet--they also lived in Cayuga County in the mid to late 1800's. Julia was the d/o of Joseph Ferris of Savannah, Wayne Co. Thanks for any information. Where did you find your wonderful book? Mary Sorensen
