Seeking more information and contact with more kin:
CALL, Silas E. b. abt 1833/34 in NY
He occupation while in NY was a Sawmill Tender (in Michigan became a farmer).
married Olive M. (need a maiden name) b. 17 Apr 1840 in NY
died 10 Oct 1867 (27y 5m 23d)
buried Post Creek Cem., Catlin Twp, Chemung Co., NY
Since last child born in 1867 ?? died after child was born
their children:
CALL, Elvira b. 1858 in NY
CALL, Ira W. b. 1866 in NY
CALL, Olive b. 1867 in NY
Have no information on the two (2) daughters Elvira and Olive.
In the 1880 census MI Spencer Kent CO., Ira W. CALL at age 14 is living with his
grandparents Ira W. and Betsey CALL (living next door to his father Silas E. and
stepmother, Lucretia).
1860 NY census Schuyler, Dix, pg 865: lists
Silas Call age 26, Olive age 20, Elvira age 2.
Ten (10 years later) Silas E. CALL is listed in the
1870 NY census Steuben Co., Hornby with his 2nd wife Lucretia (M593 Roll 1095 pg 225
census taken on 6 July 1870). Since Lucretia did not have her first child until abt 1871
the 3 children listed are from Silas' first marriage. Also listed is "CALL, Betsy
age 60 b. in NY."
Lucretia's maiden name is BURL (but the spelling I am unsure of so could be BURRELL or
BURRILL or???)
Thank you
