Jack - posted 01-97 JACKSON - My query concerns the relationship of Isaiah Jackson, b 1763 in Sharon, Litchfield, Connecticut and married to Amaree Baldwin about 1775 to Zerah Jackson, b 1773 in Cornwall, Litchfield, Connecticut and married to Mary Munger in 1797. Isaiah and Ameree settled in Franklin in 1804. Zerah and Mary, together with Medad Jackson (b 1786), Eldad (b 1788) and their families settled in Franklin in 1810 east of Croton and near Meredith. Isaiah is said to be the son of Stephen Jackson and Lydia Quitterfield, who were married in Sharon on 17 Jan 1754. Some have alleged that Isaiah and Amaree are the parents of Zerah but this seems most unlikely. Nonetheless there does seem to be a close linkage between them, perhaps brothers, close enough that in 1895 Zerah's grandson, James Knox Polk Jackson asserts Zerah, Medad and Eldad were brothers.

JUDD - I have been trying to trace the life of my ancestor Rev. Benjamin Judd and his two daughters who lived in Delaware County. I have found that he was the Pastor in several Presbyterian and Congregational churches in Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York. Then, sometime after 1804 he moved his family west into New York. The 1820 US Federal Census shows him and his wife living in Bainbridge, Chenango County, NY.

Also note that Antotek's name appears redundantly / incorrectly as 'Antonet Yustick' later in the alphabetical burial listing at that site [interestingly, that last name is spelled in a manner which, when pronounced, is closer to the original pronunciation of the family name -- according to some members of the family Justick.
