    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 Aurilla Pennock on 31 Dec 1801 in Strafford, Vermont, USA. Aurilla was born in 1782. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
