Scott,
According to my father, my Bemis line connects somehow to the Bemis Heights area also.So far I haven't found the connection and I am still trying to connect from 1880 census & earlier on this line.I will copy your message & if I ever find any connections, I'll email you & pass on what I find.One point of interest, in the Orlando Library (Florida) I found a Saratoga History book that places the earliest Bemis in this area as "Fothum Bemis" & originally recorded his name as "Bemus" in the county records.My next run there I will record the book & source info and forward it to you if you wish.
