In New York his family lived in Hancock, Delaware County. I am only interested in anything that has not appeared on your site, which has been incredibly helpful. I also have much material concerning his work in northern Alabama from the book, Civil War and Reconsruction in Alabama by the eminent historian, Walter L. Fleming, who seemed to really hate Arad S.

Abraham married Sarah Randall (c. 1823-1905). Their children were Wilbur, James W.(killed in the Civil War), Jane, Mary, Sherman, Charles and Walter. Wilbur was born in Phoenicia and married Sarah Elizabeth Rider (1847-1926) in Moresville. The family also lived in Ulster County, NY; Wayne County, PA and possibly Michigan.
