Mary Merkel

1. Mary Merkel was born on 14 Jan 1771 in Schoharie, Schoharie Co., New York, USA; died before 1819 in Hector, Schuyler Co., New York, USA. Notes:
Possibly the Henrich Merckel and Elisabeth Hoeflich(d/o Christian, of Paltz) married 12Oct1769 Schoharie Co.,NY(b.14jan1771 Schoharie) or Jacob Merckle of Canajoxharrie,Montgomery Co.,NY 1790 with 5 daughters living with him. I think this is the Jacob that later moved to Canada and was a loyalist during the war or Johannes Merckel and Catharina Becker
Mary is listed in a land transaction in 1812 and mostly likely died before daughter Olive was born (assumed daughter of Abraham's wife, Olive)Mary married Abraham Leonard about 1790 in Schoharie Co., New York, USA. Abraham was born in ca 1770 in New York, USA; died on 29 Apr 1833 in Hector, Schuyler Co., New York, USA; was buried in Eddy Farm Cemetery, Hector, Schuyler Co., New York, USA.

Notes:
- 1820 Census - Marietta, Ohio - Abram Leonard (no children listed)
- this may not be Abraham, however he was in Ohio about this time -- see 1822 land sale
- 1822 Land (Seller) – Hector, NY – Lot 57, 81.5acres, $1500 - Abraham Leonard & Olive his wife, of Hector to Abraham Leonard Jr, of Warren, Ohio
- 1828 Land (Seller) – Hector, NY – Lot 57, 2.75acres, $47 - Abraham Leonard Jr and Margaret his wife, of Hector to Richard Hale, of Hector
- 1830 Census – Hector, NY - Abram Leonard Jr. – 1(Male<5); 2(Male5-9); 1(Male10-14); 1(Male40-49); 1(Female<5); 2(Females10-14); 1(Female15-19); 1(Female20-29). -Next door to John and Abram Sr. (near Eddy family) - I believe the ‘Male40-49’ may be an error (Abram Sr not likely have a son this old).
- 1833 Probate Record - Named in Abraham (1770) Will of 1833 as Abraham Jr. - 1833 Land (Seller) – Hector, NY – Lot 57, 7.5acres - Abraham Leonard and Margaret his wife to Silas H. Havens, of Hector Note: No longer uses the ‘Jr’ on his name
- 1840 census- Hector, NY - Apparently living in different location than in 1830 Hector, now next to Cummings, Kelly, Wiggins, VanDuser, Coddington, Pixley. - Abram Leonard, 1(Male<5); 1(Male5-9); 2(Male10-14); 2(Male15-19); 1(Male40-49); 2(Females<5); 1(Female5-9); 1(Female10-14); 1(Female40-49)
- 1844 Land (Seller) – Hector, NY – Lot 48 - Abraham Leonard and Margaret his wife to John H. Coddington, of Hector
- 1844 Land (Seller) – Hector, NY – Lot 57, 81.5acres - Abraham Leonard and Margaret his wife to John H. Coddington, of Hector
- 1850 Census – Catherine, Chemung Co., NY – shows son, Abraham Jr.; daughter. Harriett (b.1834) and wife Margaret (as well as other children). - Census was taken Sept 12th – Harriet died in August1850. However, the census is taken for the count of persons “whose usual place of abode on the first day of June, 1850, was in this family” - therefore Harriet named in the household in September was the Harriet that died in August. Also, explains why she was listed last in the household (children usually in order by age).
- 1850 Cemetery marker - Harriet d/o "Abraham and Elmira" 1834-1850(Aug) - Montour Falls Cemetery, Schuyler Co., NY Not 100% certain on this - eventhough Harriet is shown the census of 1850, possibly Margaret went by Elmira as well and error another place.
- 1855 Census -Rushford, Allegany Co., NY – 3 years in town - Abram (60 Schoharie Co.); Margaret (wife 60 NJ); Elisabeth(child 36 Ohio); Eliza (child 27 Tompkins); Harvey (child 23 Tompkins); Adaline(child 19 Tompkins); Madison (child 16 Tompkins)

Mrs. A. M. Arwine claimed by death
Mrs. Laura Arwine, widow of the late A. M. Arwine, died at 4:30 o'clock this morning at her home No. 23 wells street, following a brief illness. Her health has been poor for several months but she was not stricken seriously sick until about a week ago. She was born in the town of Howard and but resided in Hornell for about forty years and was well known throughout the city. She was a member of the east avenue Church .

The funeral will be held Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the house and burial will take place in Hope Cemetery.
(The Evening Tribune Times March 27, 1923)
- Mrs. Laura Arwine of the sixth ward, brings us a copy of the Hornellsville Tribune, of January 29, 1852, giving amoung other things a history of a riot on the Turnpike, in the town of Howard that resulted in the killing of a man and serious injuries of others, with a request that we publish it.
This is too ancient a piece of news to be worthy of much place now, however it will be interesting to recall an event that greatly interested our country over 44 years ago.
A "protracted meeting had been in progress at the red school house" about four miles from town, on the turnpike and a party of men, whose names were given, resolved to break it up. They went there and created a decided disturbance and later when some of the members of the congregation went outside to look after their horse, they were assaulted in a villainous manner, with clubs, and one of them, a mr. Irway, was dangerously injured. Mr. Irway died in Hector,N.Y. , in 1890.
The Mr. Irway mentioned above was the husband of Laura's half sister Mary Smih Erway. He was Benjamin Erway. This is probally why Laura kept the article all these years.Laura married Aaron Minton Arwine on 22 Apr 1869 in Haskinsville, Fremont, Steuben Co., New York, USA. Aaron (son of Arthur Arwine and Esther Johnson) was born on 14 Apr 1848 in Hornellsville, Steuben Co., New York, USA; died on 6 Nov 1919 in Hornell, Steuben Co., New York, USA; was buried in Hope Cemetery, Hornell, Steuben Co., New York, USA.

27. William Havens (5.Alma2, 1.Mary1) was born in ca 1831 in Tompkins Co., New York, USA.
Notes:
There are two William Havens in Hector in 1855 - one is born c1831 farmer, owner of land and his mother Alma is living with him - both have been in town 15 years. The other is born c1832, single and a hired man, born in the town.
The 1860 census, there is only one William Havens, married to Mary A. Francisco and has two children; Eugene and Harriet. He later has a son Frank and in Frank's marriage record states his father, William, was born in Hector - this leads me to believe the 1860 Hector William is not the farmer William Havens of 1855. I shall attempt to find out what happened to William and his mother Alma in by 1860.
