| Marriage | about July 1814 | Josiah Mead and Abiah Strickland were married about July 1814 in Saratoga County, New York, Abiah had been married previously, to Eldad Garnsey. On Findagrave, Eldad's death date is given as 12 Apr 1819, and the entry reads "Note: Husband of Abiah Garnsey; Info from C. Durkee's 1878 report. Stone badly weathered, partly buried." I wonder if the year could have been misread, because Abiah is already a widow in guardianship and property documents in the summer of 1814.
If the inscription was hard to read in 1878, 1814 could look like 1819.
By September of 1814, Abiah had remarried, to Josiah Mead. She had eight children by Eldad Garnsey.2 |

| Occupation | 1813 | In 1813 William worked as " Col. Tuttle sold out his interest in the Mill property to Judge Clark in 1809 and the business continued on under the name of "Bailey and Clark" until 1813, when Capt. Bailey relinquished his interests to Judge Clark, and moved over to the brewery on this side of the river, where he remained for one year, during which time he formed a co partnership with William Smith and William Tanner in building a distillery and putting it into operation, at the foot of the hill on the center road near the residence of the late Asaph Mather. For some reasons not now known, that distillery did not operate but a couple of years, when the business was discontinued entirely and never afterwards resumed." From "Links in the Chain" written by Solon Massey. Solon was a son in law of Seth Bailey, viewed on http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyjeffer/bailey2p.htm. |
