Good early morning! (We genealogists do our best work in the wee hours when we won't be interrupted!) I don't directly have what you are looking for, but maybe you have seen something I'm looking for: A Joseph Conklin marrying Jannett Monell (she being the daughter of James Monell of New Windsor, Ulster Co., and James being earlier from Wallkill; James moved his family to NYC in about 1782). Did you happen to see a marriage for Joseph and Jannett in Westchester about the same time frame (1800) at a DRC or Presbyterian church. Joseph and Elijah could be brothers.
