    Notes:

    We know from Edmunds will that he had a son named Levi. We also know from Lydia Sherman that she had a father named Levi. There are multiple Levi's with different birth and death dates and scant records on them. Abigail is the spouse of one of them, so she may not be right. We do know that the DNA flows through Edmund, thru his son Levi and then through Lydia, as we have multiple matches to this line.

    Levi Sherman in Cayuga County last appears on the 1810 census. His son, Levi gives birthdates of 1810 (in 1816), 1817 (in 1860), 1815 (in 1870) and 1810 (in 1880). Thus levi died, say 1810-1817.

    Levi's daughter Lydia was born in Vermont. Levi (of Danby, Vt) & Abigail married in Strafford, Vermont.

    Abigails gravestone (pic on findagrave) is is inscribed "In Memory of
    Abigail, Consort of Levi
    Sherman, who died June
    2nd, 1791, aged 40 years"

    FamilySearch has birth of 1741, based on 1744 baptism at age of 3 in British Colonial North America. No source given.

    Family Search has marr to Abigail in 1784. No source given.

    Another Levi Sherman (son of Daniel & Ruth Howard) was b. 3 Sep 1776 in Danby, according to birth records. Family search shows he is the one who married Aurilli Pennock.

    Levi married Abigail Sprague. Abigail was born in 1751 in Danby, Rutland County, Vermont, United States of America; died on 2 Jun 1791 in Danby, Vermont, USA; was buried in Danby, Rutland County, Vermont, United States of America. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    A marriage record shows that John O'killea and Hannah Eldredge married 18 Feb 1719. The O'Killea book states that she was the daughter of Robert Eldred and Elizabeth Nickerson. Robert's estate inventory was dated 1/18/1883. His death seems to be too early for her birth. Online trees have her born in either 1692 or 1700, Both dates after robert Eldredge died. I suspect she may have been a granddaughter of Robert Eldredge.

    There are trees that show Hannah as a daughter of Jehosophat Eldred, probable son of William Eldred, a brother to Robert. it has her born 1690. Jehosophat's will in 1732 does not mention Hannah, although it names the other children.
