Earlier researchers thought BJC’s father was Joseph Cleveland Cady 1770-1840. There is room for him in that family, but there is no evidence to support him in that family. My research found a Joseph C Cady Sr 176x-1821 was more likely BJC’s father (or Uncle) and JCC Sr had a large number of boys. These Siblings were Daniel Wilson Cady 1786-186x, Joseph C Cady Jr 1794-186x and Naham Cady 1815-188x (in Addition, There was possibly a Silas Cady b 1805 and several daughters) JCC Sr had at least one brother, David Cady 176x-1821 and he is far easier to track, he shows up in Butternut, Otsego Co, NY, Wayne (Pike)Co, PA and Mill Creek Hamilton Co, OH between 1780 and 1820. David and Joseph Cady are not yet found, but were likely related to Penuel Cady 1732-1800. The only clues to him are his birth, the death of his father, James, and the connection to his sisters Bathsheba Johnson and Abigail Church of Otsego Co, NY. Several other names are important: Lucinda Cady 1763-186x (wife of David, living with JCC Jr in 1850.) Harris Penuel Cady (son of Daniel Wilson Cady), Pennell Cady (son of Naham) and Penuel Cady (son of BJC)
