For those interested in Amariah Carrier: I have a letter/genealogy written by Solomon
Shefield Carrier in 1901 or before. He says: "He was the son of Jesse H. Carrier
and was born June 9, 1826 in Jamestown NY. He says his father was born in Albany NY in
1794 and moved with his folks to Chautaugue county in 1810 and settled on the west side of
Chautauque Lake. He says Jesse's father was Amariah Carrier and that he knows very
little about his ancestors except that his father died in the army when he was small. His
mother married a man by the name of Enoch Rowley and had two children by that marriage,
Enoch and Polly.
On the Hogins side he says that his grandfather (Amariah) married Honer Hogins. By that
union there were eight children: Jesse, my father, Samantha, Robert, Rachel, David, Henry,
Lucy and Amariah.
Grandfather Hogins was an old Revolutionary soldier. He served seven years during the war.
Grandmother Hogins had one brother who name was Amos. Granfather Hogins came west with
Grandfather Carrier. I recollect him well. I was about eight years old when his died. His
wife died some years before he did. They were buried on the west side of Chautauque Lake.
Amos, grandmother's brother, raised a large family, six boys and three girls. I
disremember their names. Some of them are about the Lakes yet, or was a few years ago.
I would be interested in information on Honor Hogins. Thanks Linda
