Extra information1800Already married in 1800. Thanks to the tombstone picture on Findagrave, we know that Anna was too young to be the 1800 wife. Thus, there was a 1st wife, before Anna.
Residence1800"Jara" Knickerbocker in Salisbury. See Familysearch. (Ancestry missed the real 1st page of Salisbury. See the filmstrip, and go to the last page of Roxbury, preceding Salisbury.) 1M & 1F, both under 26. - Salisbury, Litchfield County, CT
Residence1802Jeremiah paved the way for John and Lydia in what later became Eaton, Madison County. (Chenango split in '06. Hamilton split and Eaton formed in '07.) Stay was brief? Not there in '01. Shows up in '02 and '03. (Later lists are not online.) - Hamilton, Madison County, New York, USA
Extra information1804Read the will of John Knick (d 1785 in Salisbury). 25 acres left to "Harmon's John" was adjacent to a spring & Isaac's house. Jeremiah and Harmon's John must have known each other. In 1804, they were near each other again. Will never know the full sto - Eaton, Madison County, New York, USA

Property1823Land records confused me. At first I though Jeremiah must still have been alive in the 1830's. Upon careful reading, though, this deed was dated eighteen twenty three. Thus it does not cause any problems with the findagrave entries. - Ellisburg, Jefferson, New York, United States
