They had ten children. What I have been trying to find out involves all those surnames: Sager Phelps Bates. I found this page tonight: http://web.archive.org/web/20040621102918/www.schenectadyhistory.org/families/firstsettlers/r_sh.html, if that helps any. There are a couple of Sarahs on that page, but the dates don't jive with the one I'm looking for. I do know that Simon McIntosh fought in the Am. Rev. for the Dutchess Co. Militia, and my McIntoshes first show up in that county, but I don't know where his wife Sarah/Sally Sager Phelps Bates was born, other than probably in NY. Anyway...if you can shed any light on the family, I'm interested in knowing about it. Thanks! Denise Hall Louisville, KY Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
