This is Definitely MY HOWE and WALLER line ... WHICH SACKET(T) was in Wyoming Co NY in 1800-1810? Were they Free Methodists? and they went to Elba/Batavia, Genesee co NY??? Ira HOWE could have married Elizabeth SACKETT in NY .. not PA But Reuben SACKETT was in the same census as the HOWE and WALLER's in 1800 in Luzerne PA. The Methodists held camp-meetings at "BennettÂ’s" or Little Canada, as early as 1810, and Benjamin BARLOW, a local preacher, held services in the town in 1811, as did also Father WALLER and Brother HOWE, who came from Wyoming County. They also built the church now owned by the Free Methodists. This society was organized by Jonathan K. BARLOW, the pioneer physician, and held its meetings in the same building with the Presbyterians, which was afterwards used as an academy. A society was organized in 1820, and one January 7, 1832, but soon became extinct. A Bethany Union Church Society was organized in 1828. Thanks.. Jill
Jill I don't have my notes with me but I believe there was With Sackett in the Civil War. I was supposed to get his record on my last trip but the bad weather in DC had me sent home and I will be getting them on my next trip. Could your With or one of his decendant have been in the Civil War?
