Hello everyone, A different family to toss into the ring this time! Researching the following: 1 - John HOLMES and Anna ( ? ) -->> Only know that their first child was born in Saratoga Co, NY and that bef 1818, the couple had migrated to Wilson, Niagara Co, NY. -->> Presbyterian Church in Wilson, Niagara Co, NY first organized at his home - 18 Jan 1819. [Source: Wilson Sketchbook, Pg 101] 2 - Daniel HOLMES (son of John) and wife Sally TAYLOR (dau of John TAYLOR). -->> Children: Richard C and John Taylor. -->> Migrated from Schoharie Co, NY to Niagara Co, NY in Feb 1818. -->> Militia service & clerk of Wilson Town Board 3 - Richard C HOLMES (son of Daniel) and wife ( ? ) ( ? ) -->> b 1813 in Carlisle, Schoharie Co, NY -->> Had a son William (b 1840 in Wilson, Niagara Co, NY) who served in the Civil War. Also known for writing chapter about town of Wilson, NY in & quot;Souvenir History of Niagara County". 4 - John Taylor HOLMES (son of Daniel) and wife Mary Ann PRATT (dau of Nathan PRATT & Anna LAY) -->> b 11 Dec 1815 in Carlisle, Schoharie Co, NY -->> m 31 Mar 1836. [Note: Conflicting information on location. A PRATT and a HOLMES family history each point to MI, but a Kent Co, MI history points to Niagara Co, NY] -->> Couple migrated from Niagara Co, NY to Kent Co, MI in 1837 - and were settled in Grand Rapids by 1838. -->> Conflicting information on children for this couple: Marietta (1814 - 1919 and married Leonard REMINGTON), John T, Elizabeth and possibly 3 others. See: 1) Croop, Donald. "Wilson Sketchbook" (A History of Wilson). Wilson Historical Society, Pub No. 34, Wilson, NY. 1991. 2) Taylor, Elisha, compiler. "Genealogy of Judge John Taylor and His Descendants". Detroit, MI. 1836. Anyone see anything familiar? Any connections or leads to work on the blanks? Thank you, Debbie
