Hello...
The evidence is not 100% positive on Phyllis... but is VERY likely. A James Comey (born 1912, Bridgeport, CT and living at 124 Morse Ave, Bloomfield, Essex County, NJ) and a Phyllis Comey (both listed as married, same address listed for both) born in 1914, New York City, sailed on the "Monarch of Bermuda" from Hamilton, Bermuda to New York City on april 26, 1935, arriving on april 28, 1935. As the age for him would have been 23, and her, 21, it is possible, in fact, probable, that they were returning from a honeymoon. You can find a copy of the ship's manifest on Ancestry.com if you are a member.
I did look up Phyllis in the SSDI and didn't find her... born in 1914 I guess it is possible she is still alive, or perhaps she re-married.
Hope I've been helpful. Are you a descendant of Grace and Thomas James?

Thanks for this information. I believe that Thomas Harvey James' wife was named Florence Milner. Grace Milner James' birth register lists her mother as Florence Milner James. Her baptismal record from the Church of St. John the Evangelist in Stockport, NY lists her parents as Thomas H. James, Jr. and Florence Milner. The 1880 Census for Stuyvesant, Columbia, NY has a Florance Milner, 22, born NY, daughter of Henry and Roseanna Milner.
Can you tell me your source for Phyllis Comey, born 1914 in New York City?

I am not a descendant of these individuals as Grace Augusta Chittenden (great grandmother of the mentioned James Edward Comey) is my 7th cousin, thrice removed. My Chittenden connection is through my 2nd great grandmother, Adelaide Lavinia Chittenden (1843-1925), wife of George Turner (1843-1914), daughter of Albert Cornelius Chittenden and grand-daughter of Cornelius Chittenden who fought in the Revolutionary War.
The wife of James Edward Comey was named Phyllis. I do not know her last name. She was born in 1914 in New York City and she and James were married and living in New Jersey by 1935. James was born jun 14, 1911, in Connecticut, probably Bridgeport, Fairfield County, and died Feb 1985, Pleasantville, Atlantic County, NJ.
James' father, Orlo Edward Comey was born aug 13, 1885 in Connecticut, probably Bridgeport, Fairfield County. He had married Grace Milner James by 1910 in Bridgeport, Fairfield County, CT. Grace was born Aug 1885 in Stockport, Columbia, NY.
Grace's father, Thomas Harvey James, was born jun 5, 1859 or 1860 in New York and married Florence (last name unknown) in about 1884 in New York. Florence was born jun 1861 in New York.
That is all the information I have on these individuals.

Thanks for your response. Are you a descendant of Thomas and Grace?
Thomas James, b. 1859, had a daughter Grace who married Orlo Comey. They had a son, Harvey Comey who died in 1937 at age 17, and a son James E. Comey, b. 1911, died 1985 in Pleasantville, NJ. According to WW II army enlistment records, he was married, but I can't find his wife's name or the names of any children.
John Chittenden James, b. 1861, had a daughter Lola Estella, b. 1881, d. 1885.
I am not aware of any other descendants. If you have more information, please advise.
Thanks.

unfortunately, I don't recognise the man you mentioned. our Sally m. John Hall Whittlesey. our Polly m. Azariah Ross. she m. Azariah young and she died young, and as far as I know she d. in Ohio, so I don't think your Polly and mine are the same. perhaps your Sally and ours are the same? it's worth a shot. anyway, I do know a little of her descendancy, though not perfect...I descend from Polly and Az.

Hello... don't know if she's yours, but I have a Sally Chittenden b. 1782, Guilford, New Haven, CT, daughter of Jairus (1745-1828) and Rebecca Hall (1751-1818) Chittenden. FWIW there is no Gideon I can find in this family. I would be interested in Sally's descendants if we can connect this to add to my archive.
