Abraham Hartman

Notes:

Abraham was living in Sparta in 1850, and the town of Wayland in 1860. According to the 1868 Livingston County Directory, Abram was living in Ossian as a famer with 50 acres. In 1885, he is living in Sparta, according to his father's obituary. He died at the home of Allen Peasley, a short distance east of the Dansville Lackawanna depot. In and about 1900 he had lived with Daniel and Amariah Steffy, nephews of Abraham's wife, in Dansville.

Abraham married Mary Hamsher about 1847 in Sparta, Livingston County, New York. Mary (daughter of Valentine Hamsher and Mary Elizabeth Welch) was born in Jan 1825 in Sparta, Livingston County, New York. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Apparently Henry Pickard died between 1872 and 1875 and the three oldest children were then raised by Elizabeth's parents, giving them the name Hartman.
In the 1875 census of Ossian, Elizabeth Pickard and the three children, with the surnames Pickard were living with Abraham and Mary Hartman. I(Andrew) would assume a short time after the 1875 census Abraham, his wife, daughter and
three grandchildren removed to South Dansville. (At the time of this update, I had been unable to obtain the 1880 census of Steuben County to further prove this). April 1998, I have found this family in the 1880 census living in Burns,Allegany Co.,NY; all seems normal, except living next door to the Hartman's and Peasley's is the Elias Kiehle's family and their boarder, Henry Pickard!! So apparently, Elizabeth Hartman and Henry Pickard got divorced about 1875 as the 1880 census shows Allen Peasley, as Abraham Hartmans son-in-law.

Death of Mra. Peasley.
Mrs. Elisabeth Peasley died at her home east of the Lackawanna depot In this town late Monday night at the age of 66 years. She had been ill several months and during the latter part of November she was obliged to give up. She was born on Sandy Hill, the daughter of Abram Hartman, and she was married to Allen Peasley thirty-seven years ago. She had always lived in this vicinity. She is survived by her husband and by three daughters and two sons, Mrs. Milton Holbrook, Mrs. Elizabeth Maynard, Mrs. Ephraim Holbrook, Arthur Peasley and Abram Hartman. The remains were brought to the borne of Milton Holbrook on Main street and funeral services will be held from that place Friday afternoon at two o'clock, Rev. Mr. Heilig officiating, the deceased being s member of St. Paul's English Lutheran church and she will be buried in Greenmount.

WAYLAND - Leslie James, 34, of Wolfanger Road, passed away early Saturday morning, Dec. 17, 2005, at her home after a courageous four and a half-year battle with cancer.
Leslie was born July 3, 1971, in North Hornell, the daughter of Leslie Halbert Jr. and Martha Birchard Glover. She grew up in Canaseraga and graduated from high school there in 1989 as the salutatorian of her class. Leslie and Jamie James entered into marriage on Nov. 17, 1990, at the Dansville United Methodist Church. They recently celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary. Leslie and Jamie lived in Dansville for a couple years prior to moving to the Wayland area.

Leslie began a career 15 years ago with the former Brooks Drug Store (currently CVS) in Wayland and event-ually became the manager of the Wayland facility. She was an active softball and soccer player in the local women's leagues. She became quite the quiltmaker, along with enjoying gardening and flowers. She was very proud of their new home on Wolfanger Road, and apparently she liked to mow the lawn because every time she did she kept trying to make it bigger by mowing farther and farther each time. Leslie also enjoyed going to lunch with her mother. As she bravely fought her cancer with her many treatments and appointments, she could always fit in lunch with Mom.

Leslie was predeceased by her maternal grandparents, Everett and Marvel Birchard, and her paternal grand-parents, Cleo and Leslie Halbert.

Leslie is survived by her husband of 15 years, Jamie James of Wayland; her two daughters Sara and Hannah James, both of Wayland; her mother Martha (Gerald) Glover of Loon Lake; her father Leslie (Kathy) Halbert Jr. of Oswego; her father-and mother-in-law Terry and Leona James of Dansville; Grannie Clark of Perkinsville; siblings Kathie (Wally) Berry of Canaseraga, Cindy Rowley of Greece, Patricia (Elton) Shumway of Olean, Daniel and Andrew Rowley of Canaseraga, Jason (Stacy) Birchard of Waverly, Tenn., Wilson Rowley of Aberdeen, Md., Duane Glover of Wayland, Donald (Cathy) Glover of Cuba, James Halbert of Oswego and Christopher (Lisa) Halbert of Cohocton; sister- and brother-in-law Terra and Lorenzo Ylizarde of Wellington, Fla.; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.

Leslie's family and friends called 7-9 p.m. Sunday and 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. Monday at the St. George-Stanton Funeral Home, 109 West Naples St., Wayland. Leslie's funeral service was conducted at 2 p.m. Tuesday at the Dansville United Methodist Church, 5 Chestnut Ave., Dansville, the Rev. David Hotchkiss officiating, Leslie's funeral service.
