Biography

Abraham Knickerbocker, B1733, was born in 1733 in Salisbury, Litchfield, CT.³
He and Jerusha Tupper were married about 1760 in Salisbury, Litchfield, CT.
He died on 1 November 1809 at age ~76 in Sempronius, Cayuga, NY, From a published genealogy of Mayflower families: Jerusha Tupper, b 21 Mar 1741, d Sempronius NY 9 May 1812; Abraham b 12 Apr 1733 Salisbury, d Sempronius 1 Nov 1809.

Knic Generation #: 4.
1733 : Few birth records in CT. Granddau's obit says Abraham had 11 children. Military pension application for dau Jane Ann names some of her siblings. Are we are missing a 1st wife for Abraham & possibly his oldest children?
Knic Lineage: 1. HJ / 2. Lourens / 3. John / 4. Abraham (this person.)
1733: See the obit of Cynthia Knickerbocker's daughter, Martha Sears, which says that Abraham had 11 children.
Abraham Knickerbocker, B1733, was baptized on 3 May 1733 in Germantown, Columbia, NY.⁴
He lived in Litchfield, Litchfield, CT, in 1790. Males - Under 16: 3; 16 and over: 3. Females - 6. Suspect multi-generation household with 1 adult son (& wife?)¹
He lived in Colchester, Delaware, NY, in 1798. Pension application for dau Jane says that Abraham moved from Salisbury to Colchester Delaware Co. Testimony is vague about the date. Abraham's stay in Colchester must have been brief, because he & son Darius were in Sempronius in 1800.
He lived in Sempronius, Cayuga, NY, in 1800.²
He lived in Sempronius, Cayuga, NY, in 1803. Tax listing. Ancestry's transcription is messed up. Abraham is near the upper left.⁵

Biography

William Knickerbocker, B1824, was born about 1824 in Eaton, Madison, NY.^1,1,2,3
He died in August 1869 in ..., Calhoun, MI, A 45 year old widower, named Willliam, who was born in NY died in Calhoun, Michigan. Could this be our William ? (Father Hiram and other family members moved to Calhoun before 1870.)²

Knic Lineage: 1. HJ / 2. Lourens / 3. John / 4. Harmen / 5. John / 6. Hiram / 7. William (this person.)
Knic Generation #: 7.
William Knickerbocker, B1824, lived in Eaton, Madison, NY, in 1850.³
NY, Madison, Eaton. HOH = William Knickerbocker.
1850: Eaton census in July shows Wm & Harriet together. For some reason Stockbridge wasn't done until Sept, and shows Harriet (at her parents?) with newborn. Same person?
1851: Eaton, Madison, NY: Constable William Knickerbacker
He lived in Eaton, Madison, NY, in 1855. There are 2 Williams in Eaton in 1855. Both show birth in Madison County. One of them could be Hiram's oldest son. William & Harriett in the attached record are both 30 (b ~ 1825). The other William is 5 years older; wife's name smudged (Mi?s).^1,1
1855: There were at least 2 Williams in the area. 1. Stockbridge/Munnsville has Harriet wife of Wm (1850 census & H's tombstone). 2. Eaton has a Wm/Harriet pair (1850 & 55); duplicate?. 3. Eaton also Wm and Mi? (1855).
1855: William was a popular first name, so its hard to be sure. However, our William seems to disappear forever.
1870: There was a Wm in Iowa, b. NY, who is just the right age, but his father John Knickerbocker is living with him. Can't be our man.
1870: This "William" disappears. There are Williams (or Wms) in the midwest, but none of them seem to fit.
1874: There was a different Wm in Michigan. Familysearch has death notice for Sara A Nelson, daughter of Harriet and Wm. Knickerbocker. Sarah's father William was the son of Hugh Knickerbocker and Rachel Schram.
