Stephen is shown to be about 62 years old(born 1788), his wife Catherine is shown to be about 33 years old (born about 1817). They are listed with their children, Mary Jane, James, Daniel, and Sarah Mariah (Sarah is one of my ggrandmothers) According to the 1865 census she was born in Delaware county. At the time of the 1865 census she was living in Tompkins. I am specifically interested in verfication that Stephen's father was Daniel Hunt. I have long suspected that Catherine was not his first wife, but I have no proof of this. I have absolutely no information on Catherine other than the fact that according to the 1865 census she was born in Dutchess county. A few years ago I borrowed the 1855 census for Delaware county from the LDS and spent considerable amount of time reading it and did not find either Stephen or Catherine in it. According to the family of Catherine's last daughter - Lucinda she was born in Ulster County, New York in 1850. I have a feeling this might not be correct. Catherine had 3 husbands before she died in 1884. She is listed in the 1860 census as Catherine Dickerson living in Neufield, Tompkins county and shows as a widow. Her son by ???? dickerson had not yet been born when the census was taken. By 1865 she is still living in Neufield and once again shows as a widow with 1 child form 2nd marriage and 2 children from 1st marriage living with her.
