    3. Posted on: Tioga Co. NY Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NY/Tioga/10220 Surname: Dingee, Andre, Kniffin ------------------------- Hi Delores, To bad that the piece on Jacob Andre only mentioned his wife Deborah's father (since I am interested in her mother). Of the families you mention in Ulster, Enoch, Isaac, John H. were children of John & Betsy Kniffin. John was from Bedford Westchester Co. They are not closely related to the Dingees in the query. Lawrence is very distantly related. Lawrence grew up in Putnam Co. and his father Elijah was a loyalist who went to New Brunswick Canada. The family was one of the earliest settlers in Dutchess Co (1714) and originally came out of LI. The parents of the Tioga Dingee descendants came from Bedford to Putnam/Dutchess to Delaware Co. NY ??to Tioga Co. There was also a John T Dingee, b.1829 Delaware Co, a florist, in Waverly who is probably a first cousin of the Dingee descendants in the query. This was a far flung family.

Elijah and Kezia were said to have been the first marriage of record in the town of Meredith, Delaware Co, running away to marry fall of 1796. Many members of this family migrated and settled in Tompkins, Tioga and Chemung Cos., NY State, and then further west into Iowa and other states. So far in Delaware Co. we are back to Elmer and Orpha Jane GEORGIA b. ca 1826 and 1830 respectively in NY and having children Colace Eugene, Birge, Sophronia, Dwight, Valdimar (aka Val and Homer) and others. Possible parents of Elmer are E. B. and Electa GEORGIA found in 1850 census as parents of Moses, Abiah, and William. They are the only other GEORGIA family in Town of Davenport, Delaware Co., NY, 1850 and ages fit. Elmer and family are in Davenport in 1850, ‘55, ‘60, ‘65 census records. They are found in Franklin, Delaware Co., in 1880 census. Val/Homer marries Ida Turner and they are in town of Milford, Otsego Co., NY in 1892 and 1900 census records. We have descendants of Val/Homer and Ida Turner GEORGIA and would like more information of ancestry, vital records of dates and places of births, deaths, marriages, burials, etc.
