I found Silas SLOAT, John L(S?) SLOAT, and Jonas SLOAT all on the same page of the 1820 census of Scipio, Cayuga County, NY. Does anyone know how they are related?
I am interested because I have a Christiane SLOAT b abt 1813 in Scipio NY married Riley HASKIN/HASKINS in 1835 in Chardon, Geauga County, OH. There is a J. Sloat family living nearby in Ashtabula County OH on the 1830 census who might be her father. Wondering if "J" could be Jonas or John L ? Christiane and Riley named one of their sons Silas.
