This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Roberts, Genson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3RB.2ACE/520 Message Board Post: Looking for any information on the descendants of Joab and Clarissa who moved to Tioga county just prior to 1840. Joab was born in Otsego Co NY in 1792. Clarissa was born in Connecticutt in 1790. They first settled in Orange Co NY after Joab was released from service in the war of 1812. They had seven children, the youngest named James. I am looking to connect them to an Elsa (Elsie) Roberts who married my g-g-g-grandfather John Richard Genson. Elsie was born in 1823.
