Surnames: Sherwood, Jeffords, Pease Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/JFHBAEB/725.739 Message Board Post: I have been researching John Sherwood, who was born in NY state on 5 April 1790 and married Sibbila Jeffords before 1810, who had 4 children before she died 26 Dec 1820 in Rush, (now Monroe Co.), NY. John Sherwood married Sally Pease on 5 July 1824 in Palmyra, NY. He lived in Collins, Erie, NY in 1830 before moving to Ontario, Canada in 1836. His daughter Dorcas Sherwood married John Kirk Seapy from Ringstead, Norfolk, England on 9 Dec 1842 at Burford, Brant, Ontario. The Sherwood and Seapy families returned to US in 1846, settling in Kane County, Illinois. John and Sally Pease Sherwood had 6 children: Seth, Abram, Milton, Martha, John and Mary. Could Silas Richard Sherwood be a son of John Sherwood and Sibbila Jeffords, and a sister of Dorcas Sherwoood Seapy?
