I am descended from Joseph Francis POWLEY (probably originally POUILLY), a Frenchman who came to America to fight with Lafayette and remained in NYC after the war.
There are three unidentified females in Joseph Francis' 1810 and 1820 households.Two were born 1800-1810, and one was born 1810-1820.Might one be Mariah?I descend from Joseph Francis' daughter Catherine/Catharine (b. NYC 1799).You wrote that the WATERBURYs named a daughter Catharine.My Catherine named her first daughter Maria.Jos Francis' son Peter named a daughter Sarah Maria.Jos Francis' son Francis named a daughter Martha and a son Seely Waterbury.
Did you ever figure out Mariah's parents?
