(then known as Miles Crossroads, Knox Co.) in 1816. In 1819 he married Mrs. Olive AUSTIN Dodge, whose family had also come to Knox county around 1808 from Marietta, Washington Co. Both families came from the area of Jamaica, Windham Co., VT. Olive traveled with her "mother", "aunt" or "step mother" Hannah RAND (relationship has not been established yet) and her husband, Mr. Joseph HIGGINS (the uncle of her future husband, Reuben). Reuben and Olive had the following children: Mercy, Elisha B. (my line), John, Asa, Sylvester M., Elizabeth, Joseph, Lucy. I have much information (back to 16th cent. England) on my Gleasons, but would like to correspond with cousins that might be able to shed some light on Olive's family. Her siblings include: David, Benjamin, Hannah, Isaiah, and Mary. Not much is known of their father and the identity of their mother is in question. It's possible that Hannah Rand Higgins is their mother as she took charge of the children at their father's death, but, she could also be their stepmother, and/or a sister of the children's real mother who married Mr. Austin at his first wife's death. If anyone has any info on the AUSTIN family, or additional info on the GLEASONS, HIGGINS, et al after their resettlement in Knox Co., please let me know. Thanks! Richard H.
