I believe I am living in the house of John Person and Sarah Layman along Kaaterskill Creek in Catskill. I have an old map and I am guessing that the Abraham Layman noted on this map might be Sarah's father. He was living across the road from John and Sarah and perhaps gave them the land to build the home.....a wedding gift perhaps? 1857-J. Person John Person, son of Hezekiah and Margaret Person, was born at Catskill in 1825, and was married in 1854 to Sarah C. Layman of Catskill. They had two sons and one daughter, Mary (b abt 1856), William H. (b abt 1859) and John H. (b abt 1862). Family is found in the 1870 and 1870 census records. 1896 Greene County Directory: John Person---farmer 107 acres PO Catskill Any info on either family (and info on the Little Delaware Turnpike that passed by the house) would be of interest.

Arthur, I haven't begun to enter the 500+ pages of Layman info I received from a shirttail cousin, and researched primarily by Sylvia in Greene County...but I do know my LEHMANN/LEHMAN/LAYMAN line settled there very early on. I'll keep your message on file and when I enter the info into my database, I'll let you know if we have a connection. shirley :) Arthur Hoey wrote: >I believe I am living in the house of John Person and Sarah Layman along >Kaaterskill Creek in Catskill.
