Hi all, I'm looking for information on the Andrew and Polly Lampson McWain family who had quite a few of their children in Shaftsbury. One of the sons, Jacob (who was born about 1799), lived there and was enumerated in the Shaftsbury census in 1820 and 1830. He went to Batavia, Genesee Co., NY by his death in 1832 (intestate) where his brother, Asa, lived. I have been looking for parents to Polly Lampson, but haven't, as yet, found any. I would also be interested in finding any Lampsons in the area as well. Polly was born about 1776 (per census records) and she and her husband, Andrew McWain (McElwain) had most of their children in the Shaftsbury area from about 1790 to 1810. One daughter, Emma, was born and died in 1809. I don't have any burial information for Emma, and maybe if I can find her I can find where the family lived. Other children were Andrew, Abraham (my line), David Jefferson, Archibald, and Lydia V. McWain. Andrew was said to have gone to Canada (no further information on him), Abraham went to North Dorset, David Jefferson went to Grand Blanc, Genesee Co., MI, Archibald went to Owosso, Shiawassee Co., MI, and Lydia also went to Grand Blanc, Genesee Co., MI. Polly Lampson McWain was enumerated with Lydia and her husband Dr. Samuel Knight near Fenton, Genesee Co., MI in 1860. She is not found in the 1870 census and is assumed dead by that time. I haven't found any cemetery record with Polly Lampson McWain for the area, and she's not buried with her husband, Andrew, who died in 1837 in Woodstock, Windsor Co., VT. Any help on this family would be greatly appreciated. Blessings, Jill Watters Rains
