Philip Harrington/Herrington
My Great Great Grandfather was Philip Harrington/Herrington.I have seen it both ways.In the 1880 census, he and his family were living in Guilderland, New York.He was listed as 55 y.o. and his wife, Margaret, was 44 y.o.With them were daughter Alice, 15 y.o. (my great grandmother) and a grand-son, Philip Beauman 5 y.o.
On his death certificate, Philip was listed as born in Ireland, but the census describes him as born in NY.He was in the civil war and I have a copy of his pension request from that war.I had never heard of any children, except Alice, but there was obviously another daughter, since a grand-son was mentioned?I have records of Alice's descendants, but nothing from any other children.
Alice grew up near Altamont, NY in a place called "Settles Hill".Does anyone have knowledge of this family or of any descendants of Philip Beauman?
