Families of the Children of Meribah5 Washburn and Paul Blackmer

 

 

            The children of Meribah Washburn and Paul Blackmer have not all been traced yet, but their descendants lived primarily in New York and Michigan, except for a few that moved south into North Carolina and Tennessee. There appears to be some bad information circulating about Oliver Wilcox, the husband of granddaughter Luna Jones, which I have tried to correct, and the list of children of son Titus Blackmer may be incomplete. A special thanks to Richard Bucknam for his research on the family of daughter Mercy Blackmer. I will add to this file in the future if children are found for their children Meribah Bush, Huldah Williams, Ezra Blackmer, and Hira Blackmer.

        3464a  vi   Dr. Mithra Jones, a twin son, born on 4 Apr. 1786 in New Marlborough, MA,[219] died on 20 Nov. 1809 in NY, aged 23 years,[220] presumably unmarried, and was buried in Acra Village Cemetery in Acra, Greene Co., NY, but no probate records were filed for his estate in Greene Co., NY. He was not mentioned in the 1822 will of his father.

        3465  vii   Luna Jones, a twin daughter, born on 4 Apr. 1786 in New Marlborough, MA,[221] married Oliver Wilcox,[222] son of Sylvanus and Chestina (Curtis) Wilcox, in ca. 1811,[223] probably in MA. He was born supposedly on 10 Feb. 1772 in Alford, MA,[224] and had supposedly married first to Betsey Sprague,[225] who apparently died by 1811. He was probably living in Sheffield or New Marlborough, MA, in the 1810 federal census,[226] and possibly in New Marlborough, MA, in the 1820 federal census,[227] but they were living in New York City by 1826. Daughter Luna Wilcox, wife of Oliver Wilcox, of New York City, aged 37, was mentioned in the 1826 petition for probate of her father’s will, and her daughter Hester M. Wilcox was mentioned in both his will and the petition for probate. No death record was found for Oliver Wilcox, but her was certainly not the Oliver Wilcox who died testate in 1831 in Batavia, NY, nor was he the Oliver Willcox who died testate in 1837 in New York City, NY. No probate records were found for Oliver Wilcox in Berkshire Co., MA, and he does not appear to have been a head of household in the 1840 federal census in either New York City or in Berkshire Co., MA. In her father’s will Luna was given the use of 21 acres of land in Alford, MA, during her lifetime if she desired it. She was living in Alford, Berkshire Co., MA, in the 1850 federal census,[228] the 1855 state census,[229] and the 1860 federal census.[230] She died a widow on 21 Sept. 1862 in Alford, Berkshire Co., MA, aged 76 years, 6 months, 17 days, of “erysipelas,”[231] and was buried in Center Cemetery in Alford, Berkshire Co., MA, but no probate records were filed for her estate in Berkshire Co., MA.

Humphrey Clark Perley Jr. on 10 Feb. 1833 in NY.[232] He was born on 6 Nov. 1802 in Methuen, Essex Co., MA.[233] They were probably living in New York City, NY, in the 1840 federal census,[234] but they were not found in the 1850 federal census. They were apparently divorced by 1853, and she remarried to 2.) Jules Louvrier on 9 Feb. 1853 in New York City, NY.[235] She was living with her mother in Alford, Berkshire Co., MA, in the 1855 state census, as “H. Malvinia Lourier.”[236] She died a widow on 27 June 1881 in Washington, D.C.,[237] and Humphrey Clark Perley Jr. died on 31 July 1883 in Lawrence, Mercer Co., NJ, aged 83 [sic] years.[238]

    [661] Heads of Families at the First Census of the United States Taken in the Year 1790: Massachusetts, Bountiful, UT, 1993, p. 30, New Marlborough Town, Berkshire Co., the Reuben Buckman household had 2 free white males aged 16 or over, and 3 free white females.

    [662] 1810 Federal Census, New Marlborough, Berkshire Co., MA, the Reuben Buckman household had 1 male under 10, 1 male aged 45 or over, 1 female under 10, and 1 female aged 45 or over [sic].

    [663] 1830 Federal Census, Sheffield, Berkshire Co., MA, p. 264, the Heman McIntire household had 3 males under 5, 1 male aged 70-79 years, 1 female aged 5-9 years, 1 female aged 20-29 years, and 2 females aged 50-59 years.

    [664] 1840 Federal Census, Sheffield, Berkshire Co., MA, p. 262, the Heman McIntyre household had 2 males under 5, 1 male aged 5-9 years, 3 males aged 10-14 years, 1 male aged 30-39 years, 1 male aged 80-89 years, 1 female under 5, 1 female aged 5-9 years, 1 female aged 15-19 years, 1 female aged 30-39 years, and 1 female aged 70-79 years, including 1 person employed in agriculture, and Reuben Buckman, aged 81, a Revolutionary War Veteran.

    [665] Per research of Richard Bucknam, probably from the Bible of Paul and Meribah Blackmer, but the microfilmed Sheffield Town Record marriages for 1842 run only from 13 May 1842 through December 1842, so I was unable to find this record online.

    [667] Per research of Richard Bucknam.

    [668] Also listed in the New Marlborough Register of Births, after those of Hannah B. Buckman and Seneca M. Buckman, are the births of twins Polly and Dolly Buckman born on 15 Apr. 1790, but these must have been daughter of Dr. Reuben Buckman by his first wife, Dolly Kasson. In the New Marlborough Register of Marriages is recorded the marriage intentions of Dolly Buckman of New Marlborough and Calvin Ward of New Marlborough on 29 Aug. 1803, however this seems unlikely to have been the marriage of Reuben’s daughter Dolly, because she would have been just 13 years old at the time. I did not find the death record of Dolly Buckman, wife of Reuben, before 1799, so possibly this was her second marriage after a divorce?
