David WILBUR and his wife, Lucinda CAGWIN, died only weeks apart in Jan/Feb, 1880 in Custer, Mason County, MI. No date of birth was given for either, but it appears from their ages at death that David was born circa 1805 and Lucinda was born circa 1807. David's death certificate states that he was born in NY, the son of Job and Rebecca Wilbur. Lucinda's death certificate states that she was born in NY, the daughter of Gardner and Candis Cagwin. I believe that they are the same Gardner and Candace Cagwin who are buried in the disused Cagwin Family Cemetery in Franklin, but the dates don't quite jibe. I have traced David and Lucinda Wilbur backwards from Mason Co., MI (their deaths) to Tuscola Co., MI (1870 census); Kinderhook, Branch Co., MI (1860 census); Toledo, OH (known birthdate of grandchild, 1859); Harpersfield, Ashtabula Co., OH (Ashtabula County History) to Franklin/Harpersfield, Delaware County, NY.

War Pensioner, lived in Washington and Delaware Co., NY. Died 1842, Roxbury, Delaware Co., NY, buried Grand Gorge Cemetery. I need his wife's name and dates, the names and dates of his children and his parents names and dates. I found a probate record that has his daughters, Hezhbah Weir, Sarah Weir, son Daniel Wood, jr and the wife of his deceased son, Elijah, Nancy. I have been researching Elijah Wood, born about 1787 in VT, married in 1808 Anna Fenton, b. 1790, Washington Co., NY. They had 9 children, six of which we have identified. We believed that Daniel was his father because he is buried beside him in Grand Gorge Cemetery, Roxbury. We know his wife, Anna went to Detroit, MI with her children about 1844 and died in Indiana, where several of the family settled, 1888 at the age of 98. One of Elijah's son's is named Daniel and several of their grandchildren are named Elijah, Daniel, and Anna. I found a Nancy Wood living alone in Porter Co., Indiana where most of them settled in the 1860 census and I had not been able to find an Anna Wood living in Michigan or Indiana. Yet, her obit. calls her Anna. Any information welcome. Linda Gass - posted 10-2010 WOOD - I am looking for information on Elijah Wood.
