• Notes

  Gideon Morey was born in Rhode Island. As of this writing, nothing is known of his parents. He served in the War of 1812 and from the Record of Service of Connecticut Men he is listed as Private Gideon Mowry of New London. Gideon and Tamsen lived on property adjoining the Chenango Canal in the village of Earlville, Town of Hamilton, County of Madison, New York. Their eldest son, Albert Morey, lived with his parents and cared for them until they died, intestate. Albert never married, and believed he was due a larger portion of his father's estate than his brothers and sisters, one of whom (Lodema) promptly contested it in court. The handwritten record of testimony provides fascinating glimpses into the lives of Gideon, Tamsen and their children. [13]
