Message Board Post:
looking for more information on Consider Chichester. He was supposedly born Aug 1816 in Albany County NY, moved to Greene county when he was about 19. He married Mary Ann --- (maiden surname not known), who was also born in Albany county. so they could have been married in either county. He was married by 1855 (NY state census), and could have been married abt 1848. It appears that they never had children (at least none that lived). They had an adopted daughter, Frances Catherine Elliston who was only a year old in 1855, but was listed as Frances Chichester in subsequent census records. Frances was the daughter of John Elliston and Catherine Rouse and was born in Greene county.
It's possible that the Chichesters were relatives somehow.
Mary Ann died between the 1880 and 1900 census. Consider appears to have died between the 1900 and 1910 census.
Consider had a brother named Azar, who was married to Lydia and had a daughter, Clarinda (b 1838) who lived with Consider on the 1900 census. It appears that Consider was maimed, handicapped or bedridden (1880 census)
If any of these people sound familiar or you know any more about them, please contact me.
