So much information on these Fays, so little on our connection!!!
I checked all the Joseph Fays for 1810, all in MA, none of them fit the one I'm looking for.
The Aaron listed in Onondaga in 1810 is the son of William.Check OPF for William 1752 married to Bethia Bassett.This is their son, not the brother of Jonathan and Joseph.William and Bethia had sons William, Aaron, Jonathan, Augustus, and Samuel.Those are the names that you find popping up on census in Onondaga when they came of age.
And Paul that shows up in 1810 is a cousin, not an uncle to Jonathan and Joseph.His father James and Daniel were brothers.
I have not checked on the Learneds because I am not convinced the OPF is right about that.I still belive that Polly is Joseph's wife.He enlisted in the army from NY according to a researcher who specializes in military records.He checked the records and found only one Joseph Fay in the War of 1812 and he enlisted in NY.If he was still in NY when he enlisted and he died in 1814, during the war, then when did he move his family back to VT?Until someone proves otherwise I will believe that Polly in Salina, not Elizabeth Learned, was Joseph's wife, and it is his family in Salina in 1810.Where he is I don't know.Maybe he was already in the army and stationed somewhere that census wasn't taken.I am trying to get a record of Joseph's military service.Maybe that will answer some of these questions.
This Joseph may not even be our connection, he is just the most probable.There was also and Elisha who had a son under 10 in the 1800 census and I can't figure out who he is or who his sons were.He may be the one married to Catherine Bigelow, but the age is off slightly.This Elisha should have been born before 1755, and Elisha m to Bigelow was 1758.If it isn't this Elisha--who there is no information listed beyond the marriage, I don't know what Elisha it is.
I just keep looking.
