    3. "Families of the Colonial Manor of Philipsburg", page 115, "CANNIFF", by Grenville Mackenzie, records Richard KENNIFF / CANNIFF, born Philipsburg about 1737, married as his second wife, Eva, daughter of Jeremiah MABIE and widow of Peter SYFFER. Peter and Eva / Effie were my 5xGGrandparents. Would anyone have any documentation please for: * the marriage of Eva to her second husband Richard KENNIFF? * the will or death details for Richard, who, according to Mackenzie, resided in Ossining and died in 1801? * death details for Eva / Aggie / Effie? According to "THE FAMILY OF JOHANNIS SYFFER OF PHILIPSE MANOR" by Francis Jacques SYPHER Jr ( Reprinted from: The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, Vol 103, January 1972) Affee SYPHER appears in the 1790 census for Mount Pleasant, and in 1803 in a Westchester County mortgage.(Liber H, p.79) * would anyone have access to the mortgage details please? Was she recorded as SYPHER or KENNIFF?? According to the pension papers of her son Peter, she died in 1825. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated Many thanks Marg Smith Mardi, NSW Australia
