Albert Clark Dexter born 12/27/1807 in Vermont married Hannah ? from New York. There are two death dates listed for him in my great-uncle's notes: 1850 in Renssaeler County, Grafton Township, New York and also a date in 1882. They had a son, Albert, Jr. and a daughter Alma, and there may have been
others. Their son Albert Clark Dexter, Jr. was born 10/27/1843 in St. Lawrence County, New York. He named his children: Solen, William, Herbert, Frank, Cora, Mary, Annie Grace and Albert Clark Dexter III. Albert Clark Dexter, Jr. migrated to Illinois. He married there and lived in Mount Sterling, Brown County. He fought in the 14th Illinois
Infantry in the Civil War, then returned to Mt. Sterling. Around 1872, he moved his family to Dallas, Texas, and then Ellis County, Texas. His family was in Kansas the year he died in Texas in 1885. Perhaps they
were in the process of moving there; perhaps his wife joined relatives there after his death. My great-uncle said that there are alot of Dexters in the records of Ellis County, Texas and wondered if other relatives had gone there too.
We are descendants of Albert, Jr's son William, whom my grandfather remembers. He was my grandfather's maternal grandfather.
This is all I know of the Vermont - New York Dexters. Any info would be appreciated!
