    1. [NYCLINTO] ALLARD FAMILY RESEARCH
    2. Zina_1
    3. I am still trying to find the ancestry of John "Moses" Allard who was born abt. 1805 and married a Charlotte Tucker. They were living on a farm in Mooers Forks New York by 1850 which was located on Cannon Corners Road. I have run across another Moses Allard in the 1810 Federal Census in Sharon Vermont. Looking at Spooner's Vermont Journal http://www.dartmouth.edu/~lmfwelch/html/look1811.html I find the following: "Allard, Moses (Sharon). Notice is hereby given, that Whereas, Lydia, my wife, has refused to live with me, as the principles of virtue require, and has not accepted of the provision made for her support; and likewise has refused my care and protection. These are therefore to forbid all persons harboring or trusting her on my account, as I will pay no debt of her contracting after this date. - Moses Allard, Sharon, 31 march, 1812." In the book, Vermont Warnings Out Vol. 1 Northern Vermont, by Alden M. Robbins I find that Lydia Allard and family are warned out of Strafford, Orange County Vermont on Jan. 10th 1815. Strafford is next to Sharon Vermont which is in Windsor County. I stopped in the Sharon Vermont Town Clerk's office in July while I was on vacation. The only records I could find on Moses were in the land records. He bought his first lot of land in Sharon on Sept. 9th, 1800 from JAMES ALLARD. This record states Moses was from BARNSTEAD N.H. On Sept. 12, 1804 Moses ALLARD sold land to HENRY ALLARD. July 3, 1807 Henry ALLARD sold land to Moses ALLARD. August 14th, 1810 Moses ALLARD sold land to JONATHAN ALLARD. Moses also sold land to John Leekins, William Hunter, Joel Marsh, and Amplius Blake from 1801 to1810. There was a LEMUEL ALLARD elected as surveyor of Highways in Sharon for a number of years. On November 4, 1826 there was a sale of land to PIERRE LEFILRE (?) in Quebec by Lydia EVANS , widow of the late Moses ALLARD; JOSEPH ALLARD & MOSES ALLARD farmers of the Seigniory of Beauharnois. Pierre is a farmer of the parish of Le Prarie of Madeliene. The two lots of land are situated on the BLACK RIVER. Moses and Joseph must be her sons. Therefore, I am looking for the ancestry of MOSES ALLARD and his wife LYDIA EVANS. He was from Barnstead N.H. I did find a Henry ALLARD married to a LYDIA EVANS April 21, 1787 in New Durham N.H. which is located near Barnstead N.H. This could be my man if he has a middle name Moses!! I would appreciate any information on this couple or advise of where to look next. Thanks in advance. Leatrice in Ma.
