      Will of Daniel Hollis dated 14 Sept. 1812 probated 27 Sept. 1816 includes his wife Susanna Hollis, sons John, Luther, Calvin, Stephen, and Abraham. Daughters Sally, Polly, and Charlotte. Executors and Executor: Susanna Hollis and Abraham Hollis. Witnesses: Nathan Porter, Abel Gardner, Roger Balch. (Guernsey Memorial Lib, Norwich, NY)
     
     
      District School Reports town of Sherburne Hill show Abram Hollis, Calvin Hollis and Luther Hollis.
     
      Abraham
and his second wife Laura are buried on Armenia Mountain in what is now an abandoned cemetery, located four miles from highway 14 in Canton, PA. as you travel up the lower road onto the top of the mountain. The Cemetery is just a short distance from Tracy's old homestead which still stands. At the time the cemetery was discovered, it was completely overgrown and it was necessary to clear the plot before pictures of the stone could be taken.
     

      Abraham's family appears in the hand written 1850 census of Chenango which is now the city of Binghamton. His record is found under schedule 1, 1850 census section 2574-2638. His family appear on the last page of the census. This record incorrectly listed Abraham's son as Ralph H. age 20.
     
      The census lists the following information; Abraham's household;
      Abraham, Head of family age 57
      Laura, wife age 47, born in Connecticut
      Ralph H. son born in NY State age 20
      Randolph, son born in NY State age 16
      Mary L. born NY State age 14
      Ashel born in NY State age 12
      The above does not include Abrahams entire family because Polly died young, Eli had land of his own in the Vestal vicinity and it is believed Alonzo was in Triangle, NY and Tracy was in Ward township, Tioga, Co. PA.
     
      Also recorded in the Broome Co. Court House are deeds confirming about 20 years of activity in this area. This property valued at $800.00 was located in or near Vestal, NY on the north side of the road adjacent to property owned by Hazard Lewis. It was deeded over from Eli, Abraham's first son to Abraham on a life lease 9 October 1848. This deed is recorded under Lieber 32 page 394.

      In checking the records in both Bradford and Tioga counties of Pennsylvania there was found numerous land transfers where the Hollis lineage were mentioned but found no trace of a will or deed indicating Abraham owned any property after leaving Binghamton.

      Henry left home directly after the taking of the 1850 census and traveled to Metamora, Illinois. From there he went to LeRaysville, Pennsylvania where he met and Married Julia Bosworth.

      Mary, married Albion Rouse, (some relation to her mother, whose maiden name was Rouse.)

      Randolph apparently went ot LeRaysville with Henry where he died 26 May 1859.

      Ashel left for parts unknown and died at sea Aug 3, 1864. Abraham died. Abraham was born at Cooperstown, Otsego, New York. He was the son of Daniel Hollis and Susanna NN----. He married Ada Goodrich on 14 February 1816 at Lanesboro, Massachusetts.1 Abraham Hollis was listed as a resident in Abraham Hollis's household in the census report in 1820.2 He married Laura Rouse circa 1827.

Luman Sweetland1,2,3

M, b. 1788, d. 2 December 1865
     War of 1812 Served under Capt. Daid Seymour's Company, New York Militia

The War of 1812 is one of the forgotten wars of the United States. The war lasted for over two years, and while it ended much like it started; in stalemate; it was in fact a war that once and for all confirmed American Independence. The offensive actions of the United States failed in every attempt to capture Canada. On the other hand, the British army was successfully stopped when it attempted to capture Baltimore and New Orleans. There were a number of American naval victories in which American vessels proved themselves superior to similarly sized British vessels. These victories coming after victories in the Quasi War (an even more forgotten war) launched American naval traditions. Luman Sweetland was described as 5 feet, 8 inches, dark brown hair, blue eyes, light skin. Luman was born in 1788 at Plymouth, Litchfield County, Connecticut.4 He was the son of Jonah Swetland and Mary Harris. He married Catherine Clark on 22 October 1815 at Triangle, Broome County, New York.5 His body was interred in 1865 at South Street Cemetery, Barker, Broome County, NY. Luman died on 2 December 1865 at Barker Township, Broome, New York.6

Samuel Clarke1,2

M, b. 2 February 1772
     Samuel was born on 2 February 1772. He was the son of NN---- Clarke. He married Rhoda Waugh. Marcus Hart was one of the first, perhaps there very first settler of the hill, and lived in a log house which stood on the south side of the road near the corners. He set out the orchard now owned by Charles Johnson. As his death approached he made a special request to be buried between two of the apple trees, which was fulfilled. Decaon William G. Shuart came to this locality in 1835 and bought forty-eight acres of Samuel Clark and Samuel jr. and forty acres from Marcus Hart, just alluded to . It is believed that Hezekiah Austin first owned the Clark property. The two Clarks mentioned went to Michigan and died there. The old house standing back of Deacon Shuart's present dwelling was built by Marcus Hart; the present house was built in 1860. The old barn back of the old house has stood for many years, and was once used by the early stage drivers for an exchange stable. For many years a four-horse daily stage passed here each way. (Daniel Saxton was a native of Smithtown, LI came in 1823 (p. 356-357)



Timothy Clark came in and lived on what was long known as the Guy E. Baker estate; he became quite prominent and was a justice of the peace. His brother David Clark, commonly known as Colonel Clark, came about the same time and built where the widow R.E. Hall lived until recently. He started the tannery lately owned by Nathaniel Hays, and also built the first tavern in the place; it stood a little west of the site of the present hotel, and has been changed into a private dwelling occupied by G.G. Saxton. Colonel Clark sold out and went to Greene, where he died. these two brothers originally owned all of the land on which the village now stands and considerable surrounding-some 700-800 acres. The place was first called "Clark Settlement;" afterward "Clark's Corners".3 Samuel Clarke Sr. Came from broome Co., NY to Oakland Co. Michigan, then to "Kearsley Twp. in Genesee co. (1840 census.)4
