PACKER - I am currently searching for evidence of the marriage of my ggggrandparents, Clarissa Y. Southworth and David Packer (about 1827) and the subsequent birth of my gggrandfather, William M. Packer in 1830. Although Clarissa and David were from New Lisbon and Portlandville in Otsego County, William is said to have been born in Seward as was his son, James (b.1852). Clarissa’s parents, Ozias and Demmis Southworth were living in Sharon at the time of the 1830 Census and Demmis died in Seward in 1852. William’s wife, Eunice Pollock also died in 1852, probably in Seward. William died in 1854. At this point, James went to live with his grandparents, Clarissa and David in Portlandville, so the connection with Schoharie County seems to end here. Census records and obituaries corroborate the information I am posting here, but I do not have any written record of the marriage or birth. If anyone has any suggestions where such written records (vital records, church records, newspaper, family records, etc.) might exist, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you.
