I noted your search of Coverts Yates Co. NY. I have an Isaac COVERT b. 1803 in Columbia Co. NY(according to tax records and his daughters death certificate). He is found in Jerusalem, Yates Co. NY in 1825,1830,40,50,60,70 and 1880. He married 1st Cornelia BEVINS of Columbia Co. NY. They had dau 1826, Christina 1829, Susan 1832, Margaret 1842, George 1843 and John 1844. 2nd wife Jane Hilton-Green. Children: Harriett, Charles and Isaac. There was a John COVERT in Jerusalem, Ontario(now Yates) in 1818,1820 and 1821. There was a John COVERT in Claverack, Columbia Co. NY in 1800. There was a John COVERT in Potter, Yates Co. NY b. abt 1796 who may be Isaac's brother. This John died in 1856. The 1850 Census for Yates Co. shows Johns mother Polly age 86 living with son John. I have been trying to sort out the Coverts that came out of Westchester Co. NY and headed west. They do not seem to meet up with the Seneca Co. Coverts but I may be wrong. Well, there is Abram A. Covert b.1772 in NJ to Abraham and Sarah COVERT of Seneca Co. He married Catherine COVERT and had several children in Yates Co. Phoebe, Catherine, Abram, Abigail, Isaac. Abram died in Yates Co. in 1868.
