Nix to some of my earlier communication re. Oliver. My computer which I use for genealogical research crashed 3 months ago, which makes it more difficult to recover my material: (1) Robin Coon is correct in the fact that Oliver was married to Alice, as per land records in both Herkimer and Oswego counties; (2) I have no proof that Benjamin Sweet was married to Elizabeth Hill. As far as I know, her maiden name is unknown. Let me also clarify Oliver Sweet's entry in the 1777 RI military census as having one man 16-50 A (able to bear arms) and one man 60+. EG town records are helpful here: "On 24 Feb 1776 Henry Gardner was allowed 15 lbs, 14 shillings, etc. for keeping Elizabeth Havens and Thomas Langford, two of the poor of the town. The council agreed with Oliver Sweet that he should take them for the next year at the rate of 50 Spanish milled dollars with the additional allowance if they became ill. Then on 22 Feb 1777 Oliver Sweet was allowed 1 lbs, 6 shillings lawful money for clothing Thomas Langford. He agreed to keep Langford for 7 shillings per week, with the provision that he not charge for mending Langford's clothes. He was not to have any addition to the stipend if it was necessary to hire a nurse. On 27 Dec 1777 Oliver Sweet was allowed 6 lbs 3 shillings for a coffin for Thomas Langford, one of the poor of the town. He was allowed a further 12 lbs, 12 shillings, for keeping Langford from the 22nd of February until his death on the 9th of October."
