Hi Again Lynda, The letter you mention was actually written by S. S. Carrier the son of
Jesse. This was my error in one of the posts a couple of years ago. Also I believe it
was the Hogans that were buried on the west side of the lake.
The last record I have for Amariah is 1850 Busti, Chautauqua County, New York, Amariah age
74 born ca 1776 NY and wife Jerusha age 70, (Ancestry p. 46.) He was living between his
two children.
The burial you found is quite possibly for his son who stayed in the area after moving
back from Michigan. I have that he died between 1870-1880. Then I find his wife Hannah in
1880 a widow...see below. I was never able to locate a death place or date for Amariah but
believe it was before 1860. He had children living in several states so he could have died
anywhere.
I am leaning hard on the theory that he was the grandson of Amos and Phebe Carrier, a
child of their son Amos, who probably died in the war, but I have not been able to prove
this with primary documentation, only by ruling out other family members who could have
had a son this age.
