In Washington County, NY -- Dresden - Fort Ann area: I am still digging/looking for some connection between the DOREN-HULETT-STEERE families. . One researcher has said that Oliver L Steere (1808-1882) and James Doren (1822-1898) were half-brothers...Since Topsey Hulett Steere (Oliver's Mother) and James Doren share a gravesite ( Boardman Cemetery, Whitehall, NY), it is possible. I have nothing on Topsey Hulett Steere ( married to Caleb Steere, Jr) but quite a bit on James Doren, but nothing else that ties him to her or Oliver. ANY INFORMATION AT ALL could be a clue.
