Samuel COVEY, Loyalist, NY to Quebec

Looking for others researching Samuel COVEY, b. bef 1755, d. 1822
Alburgh, VT. In 1777, Samuel COVEY was living in Fort Ann of Albany
County (now Washington County), when he was forced to abandon his
home on 100 acres of land. They followed British troops to St
Therese, Quebec, arriving there 22 November 1777.

He had at least 19 children between c1775 and 1815. It is likely ;)
that he had at least 2 wives, one being a YARNES or YEARNS. This name
was used down through several generations of his descendants.

It is also likely that he is related to William COVEY 1765-1845
who married 1st Esther YARNES near Cambridge, Wash Co, NY.

I am also in the process of posting a Sam COVEY website. I would
like to include as many of his desc as possible.
