John R. MOTT-NY 1863

Hello Terri,
I do have a John R. Mott in my Mott database and he was probably born in Westville or Bombay, Franklin Co, NY about 1838.I believe that his father was Hiram Mott - a descendant of the Alburg Motts and his mother was Teresa.I only have John and his mother in one census - the 1850 of Westville.They are with John's sister Anne b abt 1840. Hiram had died in 1844.
None of the above info shows John having the middle initial R.But in a the 1918 manuscript by Edward Harris Hiram is shown with a son named John R.I have no further info on this John - I have not been able to find him in any other census.
The other day I looked for YOUR John R. married to Joaquina - in the 1870 census in the Livingston/Genesse Co areas and could not find anything.Have you found them in the
census?I really would love to see if these two John R.s
are the same person.
Thanks,
Judy Mott Strong
