David 1790, Nelson 1818, Chloe, Merrit, "Rogener," Adelbert, Levi New York, Mich
David Sherman was born ~1790 in New York. His wife was Chloe. David and Chloe had a son Nelson born around 1818 also in New York. Chloe died in 1849 in Lenawee County, Michigan anyway that's where she is buried. the map guide to the US Federal Census shows Lenawee encompassed Hillsdale in 1830.There were two Sherman land pantenee's in Lenawee County: Levi in 1837, and Merrit in 1835.In 1880 a Merrit Sherman is 79 in Hillsdale County (p. 134) with father-in-law William Foster and apparent daughter "Rogener" Foster age 44.In 1870 a Merrit Sherman is in Lenawee County (image 9/40)with Adlebert Sherman 28, born in New York. My sketching notes have a wife, Emily (of whom??) and West Union, Steuben, New York.I'm looking for David's parents. I have the pages from the four volume Sherman Family set, but I started too late copying page 522, need 520 and a Nelson Sherman look up.I'm "grounded"...my car's in the shop.
