The Terwilliger data I have gives two spouses for Cornelius with one being Maria Terwilliger and with the same children. I have all of the Terwilligers in Ulster County in the Census. It looks like Cornelius was still alive in 1850, living in New Paltz, and his spouse was a Mary A. (D) who was born about 1787. Cornelius, in some versions, didn't die until 1881. Sarah was probably working as a servant as many young girls did. All I'm saying is the Terwilliger side of the story contradicts itself in the record. Since Solomon was living with David Dunn I strongly suspect that David was a child, or possibly, a grandchild. In the census of 1830 I find two Solomon's in New paltz . Possibly Solomon had a son Solomon when he was very young. The Solomon's in those early census had female children which I have no record of. The male's are accounted for.

But your story makes sense...are you still saying that David Dunn was a son of Solomon's? I know that a Solomon Dunn was buried in Lloyd Cemetery and I thought I read somewhere that Peter Terwilliger had a daughter named Mary. Is this right? Thanks again for trying to unravel this mystery. Sandy

On Page 61 of "Old Gravestones of Ulster County" by Poucher & Terwilliger is listed Solomon Dunn who died May 10, 1852 at 77 yrs. old. From that inscription it says he was born in 1775 not 1782. Right next to Solomon is Anna Margaret Carney Dunn, w. of Solomon, Dec. 27, 1846. A Code is given 44-3-19 which I don't know what it means. It may refer to a burial plot. Mary daughter of David and Almira , May 25, 1867 is in the cemetery as well along with Robert Dunn who died Dec. 4, 1858 at 81 yrs. Lucy Freer Dunn , wife of Robert, Dec. 12, 1851 and then a code 71-5-30. That says that Robert was born in 1777 as I said. That also means the New Hurley RDC is either totally wrong or the tombstones are wrong. Since Sarah Terwilliger , 22, daughter of Maria Terwilliger and Cornelius Terwilliger was living with Solomon who gave his age as 60 in 1850 . Maria must have married Solomon after Corne! lius died in 1847. Sarah did eventually Marry Solomons nephew Anthony Robert.

A Sarah Terwilliger lived with David Dunn who lived with Solomon Dunn as I said.I mistakenly said Sarah was 21 but she was 22. I believe that Sarah was the stepdaughter of Solomon and I have some indication of that. I have a note from the UCHS that Solomon was married to an Anna Margaret Carney, and if I'm reading it right, she died Dec. 27, 1846 at 44 yrs of age. Maria Terwilliger was the wife of Cornelius Terwilliger and had daughter Sarah born Aug. 16, 1827 and admittedly the data is not good. My contention is that Maria Terwilliger married Solomon after 1846 and perished before 1850 leaving Solomon with her daughter Sarah. It just so happens that this Sarah later married Anthony Robert Dunn (my gggUncle) and moved to Rochester Township near his brother Benjamin (gg grandfather). Anthony and Sarah had children Armend, Amengo, Avilla, Odell and George B. My grandparents told me about ! George Dunn since he played the fiddle. They said the drunker he got the better he played at square dances. Cornelius Terwillger died in 1847 and is buried in the Fantinekill Cemetery in Ellenville just like many of my ancestors are. I don't have hard evidence but it definately is a possibility
Sylvester's History of Ulster County has several Eighmey's in the index but no Martha. Also no listings for Jannet or Bradstreet. Only one William Broadstreet shown. Hope this helps. Don White

From the Census, I might add, Solomon had many more children than Robert and David at least the census shows possibly three girls. In 1830 two Solomon's are in New Paltz which makes it a little confusing. In 1850, A Sarah Terwilliger, born c 1829, was living with a David Dunn along with Solomon Dunn. David probably his son. That may be a hint to the family of Maria. Myron Terwilliger got back to me and some confusion exists in regards to Uriah Dunn, not Leah Terwilliger. Myron has Uriah, the son of Mary Wikham and Joseph Dunn. I have Mary & Joseph with a son named Uriah. I also have Sarah Drake and Robert Dunn with a son Uriah born 4 months later. Robert and Joseph lived right next to each other in 1790. I don't know what happened, but the name Uriah could only have come from Uriah Drake. Myron had no further info on Maria (Mary) either.

I have your descendency through an ancestry file and Frank sent me information and I sent him information. I was really pleased to get a picture of Catharine Vernooy and Robert Dunn. Before that, I only knew Robert from his Obelisk in the Pataukunk Cemetery on his former farm. I had a nice conversation with Alice Smith Gray who owns Robert Dunn's farm house. I was also impressed with the pictures of the Vandermarks, Shermans and Dubois . The faces of those people say a lot about our ancestry. I sent Frank pictures and a great deal of data as well. Robert dunn played a very important roll in my Grandfather's life when his father Jeremiah suddenly died in 1897. The same was true of LeRoy Dunn who lost his father Marcus before 1900. Being a Terwilliger as well I find the best source for Terwilliger info is Myron Terwilliger who has researched my Wawarsing Terwilligers along with others. I have sent him a request on both Leah Terwilliger and Maria Terwilliger. If anyone has any info he does. The UCHS has some info on her but not a lot. What I hope to get is her descendancy from Jan Terwilliger. I believe I have emailed you in the past and you gave me the info on Frank Benjamin who I have contacted on numerous occasions.

I am related to the Sherman's from Ulster County. I am researching all Sherman's, have for over 2 years. They are all related. My cousin Frank Benjamin is related to the Dunn's. His ancestor George Sherman married Emma Ver Nooy Dunn, daughter of Benjamin F. Dunn and Mary Helen DuBois. I gave him your e-mail address, in case he wants to contact you or has questions. The information in my family tree was put together with information Frank had or that I found, plus some was from the Ulster County Historical Society, which Frank had visited. I have the Terwilliger Book here, can't see Solomon Dunn listed though. The only Dunn's in that book are: Henry, Susanna (Sukey) and Uriah . I have the Saugerties Telegraph here with some Dunn's listed. If you would like that information, please e-mail me. Take care, Barbara
