I descend from Reuben Cloos (born 1743) via Newberry Cloos (born 1772) who is found in the 1790 Census for MohawkTown, Montgomery Co., NY. I am a GGGG Grandaughter of Reuben Cloos (1743). I have found a Reuben Cloos listed as an original member of the Baptist Church which was begun on November 6, 1751. This information is online under the HISTORY OF THE TOWN OF NORTHEAST, from HISTORY OF DUTCHESS COUNTY, NEW YORK By James H. Smith in 1882, Chapter XXL, Part Five. Can anyone tell me if this Reuben Cloos could be the father of my Reuben (1743-1826)? My Reuben and son, Newberry settled in Tioga County, PA about 1808. Both died in Tioga County and are buried in the Academy Corners/Old Carpenter Cemetery. I have not been successful in finding anything about Reuben's father. If you can help me, please contact me, Sally Close Meabon at cmeabon@ec.rr.com or you can call me at 910-675-1232. Thank you for any information anyone may be able to provide. Sally Close Meabon
