Wait's Of Fort Miller New York (Arthur, Henry Jr., Sr., Sidney)
According to information researched for Washington County, New York as well as family records, the following was found:
(The following moves down from son to father)
Arthur David Wait (b.1925 d.1979) m. Florence Elaine Cameron (b.1936 d.1999)
Henry Wait Jr. (b.Jun 1879 d.1933)m. Ada Louise Whaley (b.March 1887 d. 1954)
They had 10 known children
Henry A. Wait Sr. (b.1845 d.1918) m. Ophelia Agnes Brown (b. 1854 d.1926)
Census Records indicate that Henry Sr.'s son was Henry JR (does this make him a Henry A. not the so thought Henry {George/Greene/Ray}?)Census also indicates that Ophelia had 5 children 1 of which was deceased at the time of census.
(Update to follow on children)
Sidney H. Wait (b. Dec. 23, 1823 d.April 5 1895) m. Lydia J. (d. Jan 16, 1885) This information was taken from the gravestone located at Fort Miller, New York and pedigree files about Sidney Wait.(Any other info showing the marriage would be helpful.It is questionable that Sidney is Henry Wait Sr. father or if there was other children, no other information except gravesites link the two.)
Record was found that Lydia was the wife of Sidney Wait (found in Schylerville church). We are trying to positivly identify this to be accurate to link the following individuals.
Church Records State:
Arthur Wait (b.May 13, 1785 d.1842) m. Margaret Abercrombe (b. 1783 d.1864)
Samuel Waite (b. 1763 d.1822) m. Mary B. Douglas (b. 1783)
