Surnames: Cooley, Kellogg, Sanford, Cushman, Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4FFBAIB/1032 Message Board Post: I have the following information and to make it a short story it doesn't make sense. The children I have listed as the children of Thomas Sanford and Lucy Kellogg do not include the Elizabeth Sanford in the following book. She was born in 1762 (which works with the birthdate of Caleb) but this doesn't work with the birthdates I find online for Lucy Kellogg and Thomas Sanford in the following book posted at the UofM Digital Site. Author: Caverly, Abiel Moore, 1817-1879. Title: History of the town of Pittsford, VT., with biographical sketches and family records. By A.M. Caverly. Publication date: 1872. Caleb Cooley In the spring of 1784, he commenced the construction of a plank house upon the small clearing he had made, and on the 6th day of May married Elizabeth Sanford of Weybridge, and at once commenced to occupy the unfinished house. Miss Sanford, the bride, was a lady of rare excellence of character-- She was born April 26, 1762, and was a daughter of Thomas Sanford, who was among the first settlers of Weybridge, (in 1775,) ---- (Note: According to what I find at Rootsweb he was born in 1774 married`in 1795 to Lucy who was born in 1780 which was 18 years after Elizabeth, who was supposed to be her daughter was born) Elizabeth was married to Caleb in 1784 as already mentioned. (Note:The ages of their children range from 1785 to 1801. Which doesn't work with the ages given for her parents.) Joseph Kellogg married Mary Cushman and was father of Amos (b 1760), Joseph, Isaac, Edward, Elijah and Frederick and Lucy who married Thomas Sanford of Weybridge and was the mother of Mrs Caleb Cooley (Elizabeth Sanford b. 1762) I have found no documentation to straighten this out, I would appreciate any and all information any one can offer.
