Esther Lapham Hill (Western New York)
I am searching for information on the LAPHAM ancestry of the above individual (my great-grandmother).Her mother, for whom I have no first name, appears to have been a LAPHAM who married one John Davidson HILL, M.D. (b. circa 1825, southern Erie or Cattaraugus counties, NY).Esther was born in 1866 in East Aurora, NY and married William B. HOYT of Buffalo in 1888.
The Laphams of southern Erie county (of whom there are several branches) appear to have maintained strong connections in the 19th century with their namesakes and other relatives in the Macedon/Fairfield area of Wayne county.Other names that keep cropping up in (rather uncertain) proximity to my Lapham/Hill ancestors are ALDRICH and HERENDEEN (a "cousin Anna Herendeen of Macedon" appears in newspaper reports of Esther's wedding in 1888).
Any correction, clarification, or extension of this material would be greatly appreciated.
