- Samuel Bailey, Sr. was married twice but we do not have the name of
his
second wife. This came from a letter by H. Perkins.
Information came from Susan DeHart.
Original information came from records of John C. David, Sr.
Samuel Sr.'s baptism, endowment and sealing to parents was done under
batch #F 5005202 17 AZ.
His sealing to spouse was under F505202 AZ.
Ida Louise Cramer Merrill, daughter of Olive Jane Bailey and Charles
Cramer; Olive Jane Bailey daughter of Sarah Brown and Timothy Bailey;
Timothy Bailey son of Olive Sweetlands and Silas Bailey; Silas Bailey
son of Miss Clark and Samuel Bailey:
Ida wrote to Mr. Sage during 1904:
"Samuel Bailey, Jr. had three brothers, Ephraim, Joseph and Comfort.
They came to New York from Connecticut. I believe greatgrandfather
Bailey had seven brothers, viz.--Timothy, Stephen, Samuel, Charles,
Clark, Joel, Whiting and two sisters."
In a letter to Mr. Sage from Jay C. Bailey, written in April 1876, Mr.
Bailey wrote:
"I have been looking up some of my ancestors and relatives for a
hundred
years back. My great-grandfather's name was Samuel Bailey. He had
three brothers. One was Comfort Bailey. He settled in Vermont. One
was named Ephraim, and he lived in Albany County. Ephraim had two
sons, Solomon who was a doctor, and James. Another of
great-grandfather's brothers was Joseph. He lived in Rensselaer Co.
Solomon's widow lived in Utica and two of his sons. They lived there
since father has lived in Oneida County. My grandfather had seven
brothers and two sisters."
Edmund Bailey reported before he died: Three Bailey brothers came
from
England to Connecticut. Their names are not known. One of them had at
least four sons, Joseph, Comfort, Ephriam, and Samuel the father of
our
family. The other two of the three who came from England had several
sons among whom it is reported there were Amaziah, John, Timothy and
perhaps Richard. The descendants of Amaziah are numerous and several
stated to me that it was commonly understood that Amaziah was related
to Joseph by some degree of cousinship. At one time Amaziah, Samuel,
Richard, Timothy and Joseph Bailey, and Caleb Cummings all lived in
the
same neighborhood near Stephentown. This was between 1784 and 1790.
It is not authoritatively proved that the following are the
descendants of
Joseph, brother of our Samuel Bailey, but the evidence is so extensive
as
to leave no doubt that they are. Joseph brother of Samuel lived and
died
in Rensselaer County. He was married twice, one wife, probably the
second being named Lydia. The following are believed to be his
children
and descendents:
By one wife, probably the first, three children:
Lewis, Comfort, Polly.
By the other wife: five children:
Joseph, Jr., born 29 Jul 1786, died 5 Dec 1844, married Maranda
Buckbee
(daughter of Josiah) born 6 Feb 1787, died 8 Jan 1832. They lived at
Sand Lake.
Joseph, Jr.'s children were: Marvin, 1807; Mary, 1809; Josiah, 1820;
Alason, 1812, Morgan Lewis, 1814; and Kendrick.
Warren born 16 Nov 1787, died 5 Oct 1869, married Jane Buckbee
(daughter of Josiah) born 27 Aug 1790, died 18 Apr 1858. They lived
at
Sand Lake.
Warren's children were: Harriet, 1811; William Henry, 1812; Jane
Eliza,
184, Stephen Tobias, 1816; James, 1818; Mariah, 1820; Charles Wesley,
