| John SIAS
Mary CHAMBERS |
| Husband: John SIAS
Birth: bef. 1720 Death: bef. 1790 |
| Marriage: 21 Jun 1736, St. Paul's Parish, Baltimore Co., MD |
| Wife: Mary CHAMBERS
Birth: bef. 1722 The Elizabeth SIAS in the 1790 Census of Patapsco Lower Hundred, Baltimore Co., MD, has been presumed to be John's widow, but I've yet to see any proof that she is, and her name argues against it. |
| Children: |
| WARNING: While there is direct evidence
that these four are siblings, the evidence that John & Mary are their
parents is entirely circumstantial.
1. Sarah
SIAS, b. 1736-40, Baltimore Co., MD; m. Benjamin CORBIN There is a James SIAS (b. ca. 1755-60) in the 1790 census of Baltimore Co., MD, and later censuses of Huntingdon Co., PA, who is almost certainly related to this family, and he is the right age to be a sibling of the above. He is not mentioned by Keziah (GREENLAND) SHANAFELT in her 1858 letter, though her knowledge of her grandmother's siblings may not have been complete. Note that James SIAS shows up listed just two lines from Keziah (SIAS) LANE in the 1800 census of Huntingdon Co., PA. |
