My family of Frederick CONKLIN and his wife Elizabeth (BUTLER) were living
in Cameron, Steuben Co. and listed with the following children on the 1850
census (p. 346).
Frederick 31 m laborer b NY
Elizabeth 31 f "
Albert 8 m "
Henrietta 6 f "
Asher 4 m "
Samantha 2 f "
They do not appear on the 1855 or 1860 census but the son, Asher Conklin,
is buried in Town Line Cemetery, Rathbone. He was b 1846 and d 1856. His
older brother Albert, 19, is living with the family of Augustus L.Shephard
and is listed as
a farm laborer. By 1960 parents were living in upper Michigan (Delta Co.)
and had
children Henrietta, Samantha, Jacob T., Jane and Charles. Place of birth is
not given
for the last three children. From this point on, I have lots of information.
Need to
find out more about the family while they were in NY.
I descend through Henrietta who married Douglas THOMPSON and had 7 children.
I have pictures of this couple and will share as soon as I can get a scanner.
Does Frederick CONKLIN belong to anyof you? Will gladly share info. by
email. Thanks!
