Thank you. My line is as follows:

gr. grandfather Herbert DeGroff b. 14 March 1850 d. 26 April 1916
gr. gr. grandfather Abraham DeGroff b. 10 March 1810 Owasco, NY d. 27 June

wife #1 Sarah Duryea
wife #2 Sarah Perry
3rd. gr. grandfather Abraham DeGroff bap. 28 Nov. 1779 d. 6 June 1811 according to the will he refers to his wife as Tiny. However, in the Town of Flemming history, his wife is listed as Martha Whitbeck. Also, on the death certificate for his son, Abraham, his mother is listed at Tiny Van Tine. I suppose this could be a second wife but I can find no record of either one.
4th gr grandfather Willaim Swart DeGroff.
Any information you may have would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Nancy

General Notes (Wife)
2/14/2005
There is now some doubt as to whether Tiny married David Parcel. The death certificate seems to indicate that Abraham DeGroff bap. 28 Nov. 1779 d. 6 June 1811 is her husband. It may be a second marriage.

"In the northern part of the county settlement advanced still more rapidly in 1809. In Newstead Archibald S. Clarke was doing a growing mercantile business and was again elected to the Assembly. among other new settlers were Isaac Denio, John Millerman, and Benjamin Ballou. Most of the settlers in Clarence were still located in the south part of the town, but Matthias Vantine penetrated the wilderness to four miles north of Harris Hill and there made his home. His son David was then fifteen years old and lived his long life in that town. He stated before his death that in 1809 there was not a family north of the limestone ledge."

I had made a total mess out of this family. This information comes from Larry and Barbara Vantine of Kenmore, New York. One of their primary sources is the "History of Henry K. Vantine" which included many Bible records.
According to son Albert's biography, Matheus fought in the War of 1812, look for verification.

Reminisences of John Smock of Hanover twp.--dedicated to S. T. Smock.
"During the War, General Washington sent him (the writer's ancestor-Jacob) with a company to drive the horses into the wilderness to prevent them from falling into the hands of the British. That company was called "The Cane Boys."
From New York, to Pa., to Va., then to Mercer co. Ky., settling on a creek called "Buckskin", west of Shelbyville (the Smock family) -- here they were annoyed by the Indians. I had an uncle (Matthew Smock) killed, and two uncles taken prisoners, Peter & John Smock. Father was wounded in the arm at the same time. I had a cousin tomahawked and scalped and left for dead, but he survived, got well and lived for years, his name os Issac Robins, Jefferson co. Indiana.
The same bank of Indians who scalped young Robins took my uncles prisoners, and then left for the Indian Country, across the Ohio. The alarm guns were fired, the neighbors soon collected and followed the Indians trail to the river, but the Indians had gotten across and the men had to return without rescuing the prisoners or getting a shot at the redskins. The Indians crossed just below the mouth of Clifton Creek, came up the river and camped where the Courthouse now stands. They remained three days singing and dancing and then started for their town on "Flat Rock", going up Crooked Creek to the Highlands.
Peter fared pretty well. Old Winnemac adopted him into his family, in place of a son he had lost. John fared worse, often roasted wild turkey guts or eating them raw, was his food.
Winnemacs old Squaw, with some young ones took Peter into the river to wash the "White-Blood" out of him. to make an Indian out of him. He got one of them down in the waterand was about to drown her, but the others rescued her. It pleased old Winnemac very much to see Peter out-do the squaws. The old woman would take him to hoe corn; he would't hoe worth a cent. She then made him take the papoose to take care of; he would pinch it to make it cry. It plased old Winnemac; he said Peter was no he-squaw, that he would make a good brave warrior.
They were with the Indians 18 months to 2 years. General Wayne had a Treaty with the Indians at Greenville; Grandfather took a keg of rum and went to the Treaty. He got a French-Canadian, an Indian trader, to buy the boys.
They both lived to raise families. Peter was a very strong and stout man weighing over 200 pounds; John not so large. Both lived in Marion co.
Peter kew of one or two silver mines, but he could not tell where they were. He also knew about salt, from what he told me, I think the salt water was probably in Jackson or Lawrence co., he said it was a salt spring which boilded up and ran about 20 feet, and sank again. They carried the water as much as a mile to boil it not cutting a stick, or timber, near by the sping. Before they left the country, they covered the spring carefully, to the "whites" could not find it.
Before the battle Tippecanoe there was a half-blood Indian by the name of Elliot on his way to join General Harrison, they stayed all night with Uncle Peter. He said if he lived to get back, he would take him (Uncle Peter), to the salt spring and silver mine. He never returned. I was born in Shelby co Ky., on a small stream called Fox Run, the tributary of Bull-skin, in 1800.
