This indicates that the Sacketts Harbor in Chenango Co was named after Oliver Sackett. BTW: I have found no connection for Oliver Sackett who was born in MA about 1796. I have also done some searching for information relating to Nathaniel B. Sackett. And I have been unable to find any trace of his alledged parents other than some files in the LDS IGI and some GEDs on World Connect. I would be interested in the source for Nathaniel B. having come from Oneida Co., NY.

Thurmon, Newspaper Obit: Rec and Union - Friday, August 20, 1886 "N.B. Sackett of Pleasant Grove died of enlargement of the heart, last Friday, after a short illness, aged 69 years. He leaves a wife and six children all grown. Mr. Sackett was born in Oneida Co., New York in 1817. He moved to Wisconsin in 1851, and came to this county in 1862, where he has since resided. He has been a member of the Methodist Church for 50 years, and died in that faith."
