--WebTV-Mail-6114-10904 Content-Type: Text/Plain; Charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit Hello Craig, first to correct a mistake I made, it was 1787 (not 78) that a group of settlers arrived from VT and MA, >names were Pratt,Temple , Jewell, Beals and a Moses RICH. They settled in the Cherry Valley area , in Middlefield, Westville and Cooperstown. In the Westville Baptist Churchyard Cemetery, Town of Middlefield are : Moses Rich d.8 Sept 1858 age 66y Hannah Rich d. 6 Nov 1843 age 48 w.o. Moses Moses D. Rich d.11 April 1843 age 19y George W Rich d.8 Oct 1818 age 2y from drowning , both were sons of Moses& Hannah. This Moses, being born about1792 could not be the settler. I believe that the settler was son of the Moses from Bennington VT Born in1767 in Williamstown and married to Sarah Hickock. But have no 100%proof. In a posting of June 1999 Karen Hunter wrote that she had a genealogy ,handwritten by Morgan L Rich Jan 1871 stating, that Moses and Sarah Rich, born in MA , moved to Middlefield and raised 13 children. Also have Hannah R. Rich d. 8Sept 1857 age1y6m daughter of Morgan and Eunice. If anybody has a new addy for Karen Hunter Please post. 13 children could give us many ancestors .
