GREENLEAF CHENEY, NH & VT
Looking for info on my gggg grandfather GREENLEAF CHENEY, born 1775 in Rockingham Cty., NH, son of MOSES CHENEY & EUNICE BURBANK CHENEY.He had a son MOSES CHENEY in 1798, and appears in the 1800 Fairfax, Franklin County, Vermont census.Particularly would like to find name of his first wife, they could have possibly married ca 1797 in NH or Vt.He had a daughter SAMANTHA CHENEY who married JAMES BELLOWS in Fairfax, and a daughter SARAH who married OSMAN FARWELL in Fairfax, who removed to St. Lawrence County, NY.His first wife must have died, as in 1814 Greenleaf married in Fairfax SALLY STEVENS, born 1796, and they had at least 3 sons-DANIEL, ELEAZUR, AND GILMAN.Greenleaf must have died in the mid to late 1820's, his son Moses who had married ANNA HINCKLEY in 1823, Fairfax, began his trek west then, possibly Sally and her boys went with him at that time, Sally and her boys wound up in Buffalo, NY.Sally seems to have died in Buffalo between 1860 & 1870, and Moses lived in Miami, Fairfield and Summit counties in Ohio, eventually settling in Ottawa County, Ohio, where he helped to lay out the town of Genoa, Ohio in 1857,Any help would be greatly appreaciated!
