• Notes

  CG p467 Elizabeth...m. May 4, 1755, Jeremiah Powers of Greenwich, d. June 2 1801, Pittsford, where he removed in 1792; they had children, one of whom was Jeremiah Cooley Powers (there's a -6- superscript and the name is in italics) Note: In Meeting House Cem in Pittsford, the gravestone inscription for a Jeremiah Powers d.1860 has no middle initial or name but in another section of the cemetery there is a Jeremiah Cooley Powers b.1820 d.1881. This Jeremiah Cooley could not have been a child of Jeremiah and Elizabeth since they were married in 1755.
