Benjamin Knickerbocker in Yates County NY

Biography

• Benjamin F. Knickerbocker, B1786, was born about 1786 in Amenia, Dutchess, NY.¹
• He and Jane Wilcox were married on 5 February 1806 in Amenia, Dutchess, NY.
• He died about 1855 in Grass Lake, Jackson, MI.

• 1785 : Benjamin is complex situation. Basic info can be found in "Knickerbockers of Amenia" on knic.com. It appears Ben divorced Jane Wilcox and moved to Italy, Yates County & then eventualy to MI. More research needed.
• Knic Lineage: 1. HJ / 2. Lourens / 3. Harmanus / 4. Lawrence / 5. Benjamin (this person.)
• Knic Generation #: 5.
• 1806: https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/records/item/762539-notices-of-marriages-and-deaths-about-4-000-in-number-published-in-newspapers-printed-at-poughkeepsie-new-york-1778-1825-volume-4
• 6 March 1807: Belden Road Cemetery record shows unnamed 3 month old "son of Benjamin"
• Benjamin F. Knickerbocker, B1786, lived in Gorham, Ontario, NY, in 1808. Lawrence sells property to Benjamin, "my son", for 1 cent. This helps confirm that Ben was born before about 1787. (Minors typically could not have title to a property.)
• 1820: Land records in Ontario Co: Benjamin and wife Jane sell property. (Book 35, p 436)
• He lived in Gorham, Ontario, NY, in 1820. 3 sons and 2 daughters. Oldest male is "26-44" but probably at least age 32 because 2 sons are 10-14.³
• 1823 in ..., Erie, NY: 2 deeds of interest in Erie County. Benjamin Knick "of Gorham, Ontario Co" in one deed, and "of Hopewell, Ontario Co" in another deed, bought and sold property. No wife is listed. (Erie Co, L 7, pp 106 and 107)
• 1823: Yates County splits off from Ontario Co
• 1823 in ..., Erie, NY: 2 deeds for Jane Knickerbocker in Erie Co. No husband listed; very strange for those times. 1: Jane of Gorham, Ontario Co. 2: Jane of Perinton, Monroe Co. Both are with people named Wilcox (Larry, Laura, Silas). Erie Co, L 9 P 195&19
• 1823 in Eden, Erie, NY: Silas Wilcox, who was involved in the Erie Co deeds, was Jane's brother. Sometime around 1824 he moved to Eden, Erie County, NY. He lived there for the rest of his life.
• January 1823 in ..., Erie, NY: Strange land records: In 1823, Benj Knick of Hopewell sold property to James Moor (Erie, L7 p107). Within a few days, James Moor flipped the property to Silas Wilcox of Perinton. (Erie, L7, p108).
• 1835: Findagrave # 149857245 claims that this Benjamin (from Ont Co) died in 1835 and is buried in Pittsford, Monroe Co, NY. Very doubtful. I have never seen Ben in any historic listing from that cemetery.
• 1835: Ben had a nephew named Lara Knickerbocker (1802-1884). Lara was the son of David Knickerbocker.
• He lived in Italy, Yates, NY, in October 1835. F.Search has partial results from 1835 NY census. Benjamin Knickerbocker was next door to Larrey Knickerbocker. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSQ7-V9CN-H?i=157&cat=213423. Household: 1 adult male, 1 newborn male, 3 females.
• 1840: There is no sign of Benjamin in the 1840 census.

Knickerbocker marriages in Amenia NY

There was a small, short-lived church in Amenia NY. They performed 5 marriages of Knickerbockers. These appear to be children of Harmanus and his wife Catrina.

Biography

• Lawrence Knickerbocker, B1740, was born in January 1740 in Amenia, Dutchess, NY.
• He and Deborah (1stwoLawrence) Martin were married on 11 February 1767 in Amenia, Dutchess, NY.
• He died in 1814 at age ~74 in Ontario, Wayne, NY, Will was witnessed in May 1814, and proved in July 1814. Left everything to son Benjamin. No mention of any other relatives. (Wife was already gone, and he had already transferred property to each child for 1 cent each.)¹

• Knic Lineage: 1. HJ / 2. Lourens / 3. Harmanus / 4. Lawrence (this person.)
• Knic Generation #: 4.
• 1740 : See the report "The Knickerbockers of Amenia NY" on knic.com.
• Lawrence Knickerbocker, B1740, was baptized on 27 January 1740 in Kingston, Ulster, NY.
• He lived in Amenia, Dutchess, NY, in 1799.³
• He lived in Amenia, Dutchess, NY, in 1801.³
• 1808 in Gorham, Ontario, NY: In 1808 and 1809, Lawrence sold parcels for 1 cent each to his kids. No doubt: the deeds contain the words "son" or "daughter". Sons Benjamin, David, Lawrence Jr. Daughter Mary.
• 1809 in Gorham, Ontario, NY: In 1809, Lawrence sold 100 acres to Harmen Knickerbocker for $500. The deed does not say how the two men were related. Clearly not father and son (since Lawrence sold land for 1 cent to his kids.) My guess is that Harmen was brother of Lawrence.
• He lived in Gorham, Ontario, NY, in 1810.²
• He had his estate probated on 2 July 1814 in Ontario, Wayne, NY.¹

Biography

• Lawrence Jr Knickerbocker, B1780, was born about 1780 in Amenia, Dutchess, NY.
• He died in 1814 in Ontario, Wayne, NY, See the old Knickerbocker message board on Genealogy.com. Suzanne Frantz, an expert on this line of Knickerbockers, found a record that said that Lawrence Jr died intestate in 1814. (It was signed 7 May 1814. I can't find it in the county records.)

• Knic Lineage: 1. HJ / 2. Lourens / 3. Harmanus / 4. Lawrence / 5. Lawrence (this person.)
• Knic Generation #: 5.
• September 1807 in Ontario, Wayne, NY: Lawrence sells land to "son" Lawrence Junior for 1 cent. (Book 13, page 476.)
• 1810: Look at Harmonus' son Larry and grandson Lester. Also see Harmonus' dau Hannah. The "Larry" who remained in Ontario Co was Harmonus' son. Lawrence Junior, son of Lawrence, died relatively young. (See below.)
• April 1814 in Ontario, Wayne, NY: Quitclaim from Jane, the widow of Lawrence Knickerbocker Jr. Turns over all her Dower rights to Benjamin Knickerbocker. (Book 20, page 487.) Thus, we know Lawrence had died.

Biography

• Mary Knickerbocker was born about 1785 in Amenia, Dutchess, NY.

• 1808 in Ontario, Wayne, NY: Multiple land records for Mary. The first clearly says "daughter" of Lawrence. None of the deeds mention Lawr's wife. (In fact, none of Lawr's deeds name a wife. This suggest wife was already dead; see NY dower laws.)
• 1809 in Gorham, Ontario, NY: Lawrence sells land to "daughter" Mary for 1 cent.
• 1814 in Ontario, Wayne, NY: Mary sold property to Benjamin. (Book 20, page 429.) Deed is generic; it does not give any indication of their relationship. Best guess: This is Benjamin buying out his sister, after their father died.

• Harmanus Junior Knickerbocker, B1761, was born about 1761.^1,4,5,4,9
• He died on 15 May 1827 in Ontario, Wayne, NY, Buried in Hopewell Center.^1,4,5,4
• He was buried in Hopewell, Ontario, NY.⁵

• Harmanus Junior Knickerbocker, B1761, lived in NY.⁶
• 1761 : See the report "The Knickerbockers of Amenia NY" on knic.com.
• Knic Lineage: 1. HJ / 2. Lourens / 3. Harmanus / 4. Harmanus (this person.)
• Knic Generation #: 4.
• 1762: In May of 1824, he gave his age as 62. (https://www.fold3.com/image/24213012). Thus, born either late 1761 or early 1762.
• He lived in Amenia, Dutchess, NY, in 1790.⁷
• He lived in Cherry Valley, Otsego, NY, in 1800. Probably the right man. Kids ages match perfectly. Also of note: Gabriel Dutcher was apparently in Cherry Valley in 1800. (Gabriel was the uncle of Harmanus Jr, via his marriage to aunt Elizabeth Knickerbocker.)^8,10
• 1809 in Gorham, Ontario, NY: Harmon Knickerbocker buys 100 acres from Lawrence Knickerbocker for $500. The deed does not say how the two men are related. (My guess: they were brothers.)
• He lived in Gorham, Ontario, NY, in 1810. 11 people. Multiple generations?²
• He lived in Ontario, Wayne, NY, on 20 April 1818.⁹
• He lived in Ontario, Wayne, NY, in 1819. Military pension application (attached). The various letters date from the years 1819 to 1824.⁶
• He lived in Gorham, Ontario, NY, in 1820. Smaller family. Looks like the eldest lady is gone. (Agrees with Findagrave?)³
• 1822: Town of Hopewell formed from the northern part of Gorham

• He lived in Handy, Livingston, MI, in 1840. Same census page as Albert, again (although they had both moved 400 miles since 1830). Cannot be coincidence. Also: Alanson was in Handy in 1837/38, before moving to the adjacent town around 1839.⁷
• He lived in ..., Washtenaw, MI, in 1845. FS has 1845 state census:https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSHM-SSS8-5?i=105&cat=290827.
