Abt 1754 - 1830 (~ 66 years)
Generation: 1
1. | Simeon Phelps, Sr was born about 1754 in East Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut, USA; died between 1820 and 1830 in Brutus, Cayuga, New York, USA. Other Events:
- Reference Number: 6506
- Residence: 1810, Brutus, Cayuga, New York, USA
- Residence: 1820, Brutus, Cayuga, New York, USA
Notes:
Perhaps married Submit Holcomb per "The Phelps family of America and their English ancestors, with copies of wills, deeds, letters, and other interesting papers, coats of arms and valuable records" by Oliver Seymour Phelps, pub 1899. Or perhaps not. There is another Simeon Phelps in Vermont who married a Submit Holcomb. He was born in Connecticut, moved to Vermont, has a totally different birth date and different children. This other Simeon Phelps is also in the Phelps Family book as #772 on P. 1403. He is the son of Paul Phelps and Zerviah Calkins. Obviously, the author mixed up the two Simeons. The spouse of our Simeon Phelps is unknown.
This error apparently originated in the 1892 book "Families of Ancient Windsor, Connecticut P.588" by Henry Stiles. This book shows the other Simeon Phelps of Vermont as the son of Elisha. Which is an error by confusing the two different people named Simeon Phelps.
Per the Phelps Family of America book he died 30 Oct 1786. However his daughter Sylvia has a birth date of 1793. I have not been able to find birthdates on the other children. He also appears in Cayuga County census records in 1810 and 1820. We presume he died between 1820 and 1830.
1810 census age 45 +

2. | Simeon Phelps, Jr (1.Simeon1) was born on 15 May 1781 in Canaan, Litchfield, Connecticut, USA; died on 27 Jan 1849 in Victory, Cayuga, New York, USA; was buried in Jan 1849 in Hannibal, Oswego, New York, USA. Other Events:

- Residence: 1840, Victory, Cayuga, New York, USA
- Possessions: 27 Nov 1843, Cato, Cayuga, New York, USA; Willis Phelps to Simeon Phelps
- Death: 28 Jan 1848
Notes:
Per the Phelps Family book Simeon removed to Cato, New York at the age of nine with others. I believe that he moved with his father, as there are two Simeon Phelps in the Brutus census records, which is right next to Cato. The note in the Phelps book that his father died in Connecticut in 1786 has to be an error. The Phelps book also gives date and birthplace of 1st three children in Burton (Now called Allegeny) New York. Dates of birth were 1814, 1819 and 1823. I am suspicious of that entry as he appears in Cayuga County in the 1810 thru 1840 census, which is 150 miles away. I believe Burton is a transcription or typographical error and the places of birth were actually Brutus. However, I am unable to find citations for the birth records.
1810 Census age 26-44
1820 census age 26-44
1830 census age 40-50
1840 census age 50-60
All of these ages are consistent with being born 1781
Found 3 deed records for Simeon Phelps in Cayuga County. One in 1813 was labeled Jr. The two in 1820 and 1822 were not labeled Jr or Sr.
Death:

- Residence: 1878, Lobo Township, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada
- Residence: 1880, Lobo Township, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada
- Residence: 1880, Lobo Township, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada
Notes:
Lobo Twp is about 12 miles from Delaware, Ontario. On Lobo Twp voter list in 1878 and 1880. Not on census in 1881. His 2nd wife is on 1881 census as a widow.
On the 1861 Canadian Census for Cramahe, Northumberland, Canada, his children Levi and Lucinda appeared in the household of Abert(age 54) & Abigail Porter(age 50). Also in the household children, Maurice Porter(age 25) and Porthena Porter(age 22). All were listed as born in the U.S. We have not found Willis in the 1861 census. Willis appears on the 1852 Census in Brighton, Northumberland County (without Sophronia or Levi). (Cramahe is about 11 miles from Brighton). We believe that his wife Sophronia died approximately 1861. This is probably indicative that she died prior to the 1861 census. We have not found Willis himself on the 1861 census.
From family trees online it appears that Albert Borzer Porter was born 1805 in Hartford County, Connecticut. His wife is Abigail Pettet. I did not find any genealogical connection.
On the 1850 census in Ira, Cayuga, New York Head of household is listed as William Phelps, wife is listed as Cephrona and Willis (must be Levi) is listed as 6 months old on 8/10/1850 (Levi's death cert shows born Feb 1850).
There is an 1851 mortgage foreclosure sale on his real estate in Ira, found on genealogybank.com. The Cayuga Chief 11 Nov1851 P.3. Willis executed a mortgage 6 Jul 1850. The foreclosure sale is 27 Nov 1851.
He appears on 1878 and 1880 Voter Lists in Lobo Township. But does not appear on the 1881 Census. We assume that he died prior to 1881.
Inscription on 2nd wife's gravestone, says in 1884 "wife of late W.H. Phelps"
Birth:
I believe Burton, New York in Phelps book was an error. Father lived in Brutus, Burton being 150 miles away does not make sense.
Willis married Sophronia Bradley before 1848 in New York, USA. Sophronia was born in 1822 in New York, USA; died before 1861. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:
Child on 1840 census as less than 5 may not have been Jennette, but an earlier child who died young. As to why her name is Wetherby and not Phelps, I do not know. Perhaps she was not Simeon's child??? or perhaps she was an orphan of one of Sophia's close relatives, thus Sophia took her in.

Notes:
Birth: 18 Feb1850 in Ira, Cayuga, New York per Michigan death certificate.
On the 1861 Canadian Census for Cramahe, Northumberland, Canada, his father & Aunt, Levi and Lucinda appeared in the household of Abert(age 54) & Abigail Porter(age 50). Also in the household children, Maurice Porter(age 25 and Porthena Porter(age 22). All were listed as born in the U.S. Willis appears on the 1861 Census in Brighton, Northumberland County. (Cramahe is about 11 miles from Brighton). We believe that his wife Sophronia died approximately 1861. This is probably indicative that she died prior to the 1861 census.
On the 1850 census in Ira, Cayuga, New York Willis (must be Levi) is listed as 6 months old on 8/10/1850.
Levi was a preacher for the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints. Elder Levi Phelps had given sermons in Flint, Saginaw and Grand Rapids according to newspaper listings. By 1920 he was living in Saline, Missouri where his third wife Anna Bierie died in 1929. He appeared on the Saline census in both 1920 and 1930. He moved back to Michigan and died in Tuscola County in 1935 at the age of 85. He appeared on the 1930 census with a fourth wife, Louie(Louise/Lorie?). We know little about her. He was unmarried on his death certificate. His death certificate listed him as a retired minister.
