Dear Gene and Potter cousins, I have connections to Potter, Stevens/Stephens and Blair Co. PA! But, not all connected directly together! :-) On my mother's side of the family, ma grandparents lived near Altoona, Blair Co. PA and I will be going back there in late June to our GUERIN family reunion. My grandparents, Edward GUERIN and Anna Sophia FEASLER lived in Ganister, a "wide place in the road" down along the Juniatta River. However, my POTTER and STEVENS/STEPHENS connections are in NJ and upstate NY on my father's side of the family. In NJ in the 1700's, John CRANMER married Hannah POTTER. Her family was from Connecticut Farms (now Union), NJ and had come from New Haven CT and were descendants of John POTTER of New Haven CT. This John POTTER was the son of the widow Hannah POTTER/BEECHER and John POTTER of New Haven CT and Kent Co. Eng. John CRANMER and Hannah POTTER had a son, Noahdiah CRANMER, who married Caroline Haines/Haynes. He was in the Rev. War and afterwards went to Bradford Co. PA and was an early settler there with his sons, John and Stephen. Stephen's sons, Abram and Dyer CRANMER, were early settlers in Wheeler, Steuben Co.NY. Abram CRANMER m. Silence STEPHENS/STEVENS dau. of Joseph STEVENS/STEPHENS and Desire STEVENS (yes, her maiden name was STEVENS). These STEVENS/STEPHENS were from Stillwater, Saratoga Co. NY and earlier from Caanan and Stonington, CT. They were descendants of Henry STEVENS/STEPHENS and Elizabeth GALLUP. Hope this connects with someone, somewhere.
