Capt. Oliver Cady is also my ancestor, and according to the genealogy I have, Oliver Cady
(b. 1741, New London) married Betsy Berchard as his second wife, and they had 8 children.
(I don't know about his first wife.) Their children were Egra, b. 1766; Oliver, b.
1768; Anna, b. 1770; Lucy, b. 1773; Roswell, b. Feb. 26, 1779 in Canaan, NY; Ela, b. 1782;
?? b. 1785; and Sarah b. 17??
Betsy lived to be 104 years old. Oliver Cady was a capt. in the Continental Army.
His son Roswell married Betsy Betts and they also had 8 children, including Harrison R.,
b. Aug. 29, 1810. Harrison Cady married Esther Park Johnson and they had 4 children,
including William Martin Cady, who was my great grandfather.
According to the information I have, Capt. Oliver Cady had 4 brothers~~Aaron, b. 1743;
Nathaniel, b. 1746; Palmer, b. 1748 and David, b. 1754; and one sister~~Elizabeth, b.
