William,
Just found your message and WFT Pedigree #390 "Descendants of Gilbert Purdy". The pedigree shows Horace Purdy, son and 3rd ch. of Gilbert and Maria (Giffin) Purdy m. Almanso C. Wait "WFT Est 1822-1846 - 1881" and they had 3 ch. Jay R. 1861, Spencer 1864, and Emma 1866.
My ggrandfather William H. Purdy, b. 11 November 1820 at Gorham, Ontario, NY d. 16 August 1866 Westmoreland, Oneida, NY m. Jane Alice Fletcher. They had 5+ ch. John Jay 1856, Albert H. 1858, Jennie M. 1859, William Ellsworth 27 Feb 1862 at Westmoreland, Oneida, NY and WAIT B. Purdy b. Feb 1864. See above Almanso C. Wait! Am looking for any link to parents and/or siblings of Wm. H. Purdy and as he named two of his sons John Jay and WAIT B. and as there may be a connection between the families am asking for assistance if anyone knows of connection between these families.
Any assistance greatly appreciated.
