Baxter, Severy |
Looking for information the parentage of Moses
Severy, who was
born about 1823, most probably in Dixfield, Maine. He married
my great-great-great-aunt Margaret J.
Baxter in July 1850. I have
a great deal of info on their children, etc., but no background
on Moses himself before 1850.
The newlyweds (Moses and Margaret)
appear to have visited a large family of Severys in August 1850,
the month after their marriage, and thus were "caught" by the
Federal Census enumerator. This is my clue to the fact that Moses
was related to them.
In the same census household there also appears
a Daniel Severy who matches the age of a brother of Moses. There
are MANY Severys living in several adjacent households in Dixfield
in 1850. Would this have been the "Severy Hill" that I see mentioned
in some message boards? Thank you... |
