Hello
Since you did not get into Chapmans History I went back and this is what it says. Wm. Hendrick b. in Chenango, Ny a pioneer of Gaines. He was born May 5, l90l parents Joel and Esther Hendrick native of Conn. md Dec 27 l826 to Marietta Post born in Harford Conn Jan l6, l807. 9 children born Lewis, anna (Mrs. Selden baley) alonzo C, erwin, Harlan, Livius, elizabeth, Henry and Hannah (Mrs. richard collins) 25 grandchildren, 2 gr gr grandchildren they came to this country in l852 (I think this means Mich) an lived in a log house. they had 50th wedding in l876.
I did not find any other William Hendrick or hendricks in gaines twp in l860 census. I also checked the WMGS newspaper death obits. l9l0 to present and did not find them there but they could have passed before that. Helen Ringer
