rod says:
WQe can proove that the family from the gedcom file is a Broome county family thanks to roswell
rod says:
From book-“Revolutionary war pensioners in Broome County”
John Gee--revolutionary war veteran who received a pension. Died 2-28-1823 or 1824 in Kattellville, Broome, NY. Buried in the Kattellville cemetery.

Joseph Jay (b. 1705/1706) has few listed on your gedcom, but a whole bunch on family search
"rod says:
From Chenango County (now Colesville, Broome County) Cemetary

I also have a source that says Peter's wife ws named Ruth

Spouse: Ruth Hall b. 1784 in MA d. 1838
Children: William b. 24 March, 1817 in Binhamton, NY

rod says:
unless Polly was a second wife
RODNEY says:
Wher is your source, I want to read it too.
rod says:

RODNEY says:
guy is another way to spell Gee
rod says:
that makes sense
rod says:
I got the Henricus birth stuff from ancestry.com, you can only access it with a membership
RODNEY says:
OK, I'm posting the Guy Cemetary stuff now. He is most likely a brother if Peter.
rod says:
the second one I gave you has a source with it: Newaygo County History 1844 (Michigan?)

I believe there's a William
and a Peter
William went to Michigan
rod says:
Peter was a mechanical engineer
rod says:
Straight from the 1880 Census

Broome, Chenango
Silas Jay 70
Almena Jay 45 (wife)(born in MA)
John Jay 7 M (son)
Peter Jay 57 (brother) (mechanical Engineer and pensioner)
rod says:
it told relationships
rod says:
he moved in with his brother
RODNEY says:
That is the right age for Silas. Peter must be another brother.
rod says:
and that previous book quote was William telling that he was born in Chenango and his father was Pete
rod says:
Colesville, Broome, NY
Henry Jay 63 M b. NY
Ruth Ann Jay 73 F b. NY
rod says:
!850 census
So henry an peter are probably brothers.
RODNEY says:
Peter born in 82 Henry born in 87
Henry is the son of John Jay and Elizabeth Bush, and his siblings I found are Kathrin and Joseph
rod says:
Kathrin in 1782 and jospeh in 1784--That doesn't leave much space for Peter
I have Peter born in 1781
rod says:
mail doesn't come on Sunday
rod says:
super
RODNEY says:
The year before Kathrin
rod says:
I found it in old new york birth records online somewhere
