Question: Rex Hatfield wrote:

Dear Howard & Jean, I've checked the Merrill Memorial for any leads on Nathaniel B. Merrill (b. ca. 1770 in NY, possibly d. in OH). He and his 1st wife, Polly (b. ca. 1770, d. 1805), were the parents of my ancestor, Elizabeth, "Betsey" Merrill who was b. May 4, 1804 in Manchester, VT. She was married on May 6, 1822 in Pittsford, Monroe Co., NY to Elijah Thayer (1792-1842). She married 2nd Remington Whaley (1794-1866) in 1853 in Cattarugus Co., NY. She died Mar. 29, 1880 in Clinton Co., IA as Betsey Thayer. Her father married 2nd Deborah Thayer, her 1st husband's older sister. Most of the information came from the Thayer family memorial and US federal census records. I appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you for making so much available about the Merrill family. Rex Hatfield

Answer: Rex:

We are sorry, we don't have any info on your Nathaniel B. Merrill. We didn't find a Nathaniel as "head of household" in  Bennington Co VT in either 1800 or 1810. In 1820 there is a Nathaniel, [45+] in Ontario, Ontario, NY [now Wayne Co], not far from Pittsford, Monroe, NY. He and wife, [45+] have 1f [under 10], 1m,1f [10-16], 1m,3f [16-26]. This may be your Nathaniel B. We don't find him in Monroe, Ontario, or Wayne Co NY in 1830.
