• Notes

  Amos and his wife became members of the Friends Church sometime after their marriage. They supposedly raised their children in Clinton Co., Ohio However, there is a burial record that matches him exactly back in Warrington Twp., York Co, so he either had himself buried back in what he considered home or he never lived in Ohio. (C-748, E)
