Justus Whitcomb Gary....born abt. 1828 NY?
I have been trying to find my 3rd great grandfather's ancestry for some time now without luck.His name is Justus Whitcomb Gary, born bet. 1825 1828 in New York state.He married in 1853 to Cornelia Olmstead, born April 1, 1833 in Burlington, Vermont.I am thinking that Justus middle name might be a family surname.In fact possibly his first and middle name may be after a grandfather named Justus Whitcomb. Does anyone have any connections between a Whitcomb and Gary that may help me link Justus W. Gary to the Whitcomb family.Justus Gary also named a son James Morris Gary.I have seen the name Morris and Justus used several times in the Whitcomb family.Hoping this might be a link.
