General Notes (Husband)
Son of Zephaniah Sherman and Betsey Allton. - Ashford CT VR
In 1830 there is one Zephaniah Sherman in Ashford, but this is clearly Zephaniah and Betsey, his parents. There is another in Suffield, Hartford, CT, with a mark in correct space for both Zephaniah and Lucy. However, there are 7 unknown marks and Zeph G's mark is a few year's out of place, so this is not a strong match. In 1840 Zephaniah is found in Scituate, RI where his dau Mary is possibly born. In 1850 he and Lucy are enumerated alone in Otselic, while 7 of the children are found some 20 houses away, with 23 year old Zephaniah G. In 1860 he and Lucy with 6 ch are found in Otselic. - Census 1830 Ashford, CT and Suffield CT, 1840 Scituate RI and 1850-60 Otselic NY
Buried in Rhode Island Cemetery, Lincklaen, d age 59; Lucy, Henry C, Laton M are found nearby. - RI Cemetery Lincklaen NY
A study of available census, cemetery and vital records available for this family (cited separately herein) suggests that they came originally from Ashford, CT, migrating to Rhode Island and then to Chenango County, NY. Daughter Nancy Maria marries Perry Wolcott c 1849, then of Lincklaen, NY, but family originally of Dover [and Tolland, CT before that. Ashford and Tolland are just 14 miles apart--it would be interesting to find if the two families had ties prior to mid 1800's Chenango County.] Through Maria daughter Ellen meets husband Phillip Wolcott and moves to Dover. Following the death of Zephaniah, Lucy and some of the younger sons follow Ellen to Dover.

General Notes (Wife)
Lucy (Hancock) Sherman d age 95, buried in Rhode Island Cemetery, Lincklaen, NY with (possibly nephew?) William Hancock, her husband and two children, and Rhoda Wolcott (related to her son-in-law Philip) nearby. - RI Cemetery Lincklaen NY
In 1870 Lucy is HOH in Dover, NY. In 1900 she is found, age 94, in the home of daughter Mariah and her second husband James W Orton on Bridge Street in New Milford, CT. here she claims mother of 12, 8 living. [There are two more children than are shown here, therefore. Note that Latan and Henry C are verified as dying before 1900. There is also an apparent dau b betw 1826-30 not found on any of the family genealogies who is a possible candidate for one who died young.] - Census 1840 Scituate RI, 1870 Dover NY and 1900 New Milford CT
