Re: Pitcher Family - Schoharie Co. NY?

Hi, Cathie,

I am also looking for a Pitcher family. My names aren't the same as yours, but they come from the same places, so I wonder if there isn't some connection?

My gg grandfather was Jeremiah Pitcher (b.1799), who was born in Knox, Albany Co., NY.His father Wilhemas (b. 1777) was born in Albany Co., NY.

Jeremiah married Eunice Hollenbeck and they had 9 children between 1834 and 1848.They are Emohrain, Caroline, Amanda, Mary, Phillip, Harrison (my g grandfather), Elias, Elizabeth and Hannah.Phillip, Elias and Harrison were born in Town of Maine, Albany Co., NY.

My grandfather, Allen Deforest Pitcher was born in 1865 in Newark Valley, Tioga Co., NY.

Have you ever run across any of these names in your Pitcher research?It is possible that Jeremiah or Wilhelmas had siblings that I don't know about.
