Your family is from Oliver Sr's first marriage. I have more information if you are interested. Do you have anything on Sally Congdon who about 1818 married a Brott. They had at least two children Mary and Oliver Brott. We are looking for the first name of the Brott who Mary married. Mary Congdon (b. abt 1779; d. bef. 1823 in Jefferson Co NY) was a daughter from Oliver Sr.'s first marriage to Mary Northup.
